I’ve spent much of my career studying how technology changes people and how those changes eventually reshape markets, organizations, and culture (or how it needs to). AI is accelerating and stressing that cycle in ways and speeds I have not seen before. This is why I keep one question close by. Are we using this moment to rethink what is possible, or merely to make what already exists faster, cheaper, or more efficient? It’s something to think about… When the…
Beyond AI Automation: The Human Future of Work, Learning, and Communication
At Synthesia Live in New York, I had the privilege of closing a day dedicated to the future of AI video, learning, communication, and work. By the time I walked on stage, the audience had already heard amazing speakers, seen compelling demos, and explored what happens when AI powered avatars and videos becomes something more dynamic, adaptive, and personal for customers and employees. So I didn’t want to give another “AI is changing everything” talk. (Full talk at the end)…
The Web Has a New User: AI
For decades, we built the web for people. Now, AI is becoming a user too. It searches, reads, compares, summarizes, recommends, and increasingly acts on our behalf. That means the web is no longer just a collection of destinations for humans. It is becoming an intelligent layer where machines help decide what gets discovered, trusted, chosen, and acted upon. This is a much bigger shift than AI-generated content or the future of search. The web itself is changing. And as…

We Gave Technology Our Attention, Are We About to Give AI Our Minds?
It had to be the algorithm. After I received a note online from a friend who asked me why Dave Wright and I wrote the book Infinite “when no one is reading books anymore.” Shortly thereafter, I stumbled upon an article in The Atlantic that made me moue (had to look it up to describe the facial reaction I had to the headline), “The End of Reading is Here.” Then the next day, I posted a video that showcased the…
The AI-Powered Status Quo: AI Transformation is a Test of Leadership
At AI Week in Milan, I had the privilege of representing ServiceNow on a stage filled with people thinking seriously about the future of artificial intelligence. Rather than offer another tour of tools, trends, and predictions, I wanted to challenge the premise guiding much of today’s enterprise investment: that applying AI to the existing business is the same as transforming it. It isn’t. Most organizations are using AI to accelerate processes, automate tasks, increase output, and extract efficiencies from operating…
