Aaron Wilt should be winning at AI. He’s technically sophisticated, runs a 40-person company, understands the technology deeply, and has given his team access to every major AI platform. Six months after his initial rollout, they were still doing most things manually. This isn’t a story about companies that don’t “get” AI. This is about […]
The Integration Most Companies Are Missing I’ve been a Microsoft skeptic for years. Word and Excel always felt like digital relics compared to Google’s cloud-native approach. But something fundamental shifted in the productivity landscape that caught me completely off guard. It wasn’t Microsoft Copilot, that’s still an expensive Clippy with better graphics. The breakthrough came […]
When I ask audiences what they’re using AI for, the honest answer, the one that cuts through the excitement and the strategy decks and the pilot program announcements, is that most people are still opening a chatbot, typing a question, and closing the tab. That’s not a failure. It’s a starting point. But it’s worth […]
A Stockholm engineer recently told The New York Times he spends more on Claude than he earns in salary. Uber engineers reportedly burned through their entire 2020 AI budget before Q1 ended. Jensen Huang declared that $500,000-a-year engineers should consume $250,000 worth of tokens annually, or he’d be “deeply alarmed.” Welcome to the token maxing […]
Your company spent six figures on AI tools last year. Your team is still switching between twelve different apps to get anything done. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. I see this pattern constantly: organizations buying AI solutions that solve the wrong problem entirely. They want better writing, faster analysis, smarter automation. What they […]
At 6:15 AM on tax day, I learned an expensive lesson about AI dependency that most organizations haven’t considered yet. I was excited to use the early morning hours productively. Pacific time zone advantage, quiet house, perfect conditions to build the automation I’d been planning. Then Claude went offline, and 22 different business tools stopped […]
I haven’t opened ClickUp in six days. Not because I stopped using it. Not because I found a better project management tool. Because I realized something that changes everything about how we work: most productivity problems aren’t tool problems. They’re interface problems. Here’s what happened when I decided to eliminate what I call “administrative fiddliness” […]
The Million-Word Breakthrough I just crossed one million words dictated using voice-to-text tools. That’s roughly 27,000 words per week flowing from speech to digital text without touching a keyboard. Most people think this is about typing speed. They’re wrong. I type about 50 words per minute. I can dictate at 175 words per minute. But speed […]
Google’s AI overviews now dominate 84% of retail searches and 79% of finance searches. Your customers are getting their answers without ever clicking through to your website. Zero-click commerce isn’t comingit’s here. The fundamental shift happening in search behavior represents the most significant change since Google launched. The traditional model of “10 blue links” is […]
The Shadow IT Crisis Nobody Wants to Name There’s a number that should keep every executive awake at night: 72% of workers are actively using AI tools while only 25% of companies have formal policies governing that usage. That 47% gap isn’t just a compliance oversight it’s a massive business exposure hiding in plain sight. […]
