2 years ago, @TheEconomist asked what happened to the AI revolution. Today, we're investing in AI more than ever, still struggling to prove the returns, and discovering that AI's impact on jobs is anything but predictable. I believe these seemingly contradictory signals are telling us something important about the AI Economy taking shape, and what it will take to lead in it. 👀 briansolis.com/2026/10/the-a…

This is a call for your experience with AI notetakers and recording devices. I'm looking for a device vs. software, such as Fieldy, Plaud, Omi, Bee, etc. I had a limitless device, which I love. But meta acquired the company and is shutting down the service bricking the device. Doesn't matter anyway, as I lost it in Amsterdam. I delivered a keynote today that I WISH I recorded, and it reminded me, I need a new device. What do you suggest and why? Thank you!

Tom (@marketoonist) is someone I've know for almost 2 decades. I always marvel at how relevant and witty he is through every tech trend/revolution. This is again, bang on.

I feel like the U.S. wine industry needs to come together for its "Got Milk?" moment. U.S. wine case sales fell to their lowest level in 20 years. Overall U.S. consumer spending on wine also fell from $94 billion to $74 billion between 2020 and 2025. Got wine? 🍷 Fake ad created by @GeminiApp

"AI kan alles, behalve samenwerken" Elke week kondigt er wel een bedrijf een nieuwe copilot, assistent of AI-agent aan. De investeringen zijn enorm, de verwachtingen hoog. Maar ondertussen blijft de echte transformatie uit. Organisaties worden productiever op taakniveau, maar werken niet fundamenteel anders. En door steeds meer losse agents toe te voegen, vergroten ze onbedoeld het probleem dat ze proberen op te lossen. agconnect.nl/business/artifi…

We're witnessing an emerging shift in the social and intellectual architecture of work. @Accenture reports that 61% of employees now turn to AI before a colleague. The future of work is now about redesigning work so that AI makes people better at what they do, and better together. Here are some thought about why... 1) It's easier. AI offers immediate access without organizational friction. 2. AI offers psychological safety without social judgment. 3. AI allows people to think out loud without imposing on someone else. 4. AI offers perceived expertise beyond an employee's immediate network. 5. AI gives employees greater autonomy and a sense of agency. This could also lead to hallowed expertise, delusions of grandeur, and less peer-to-peer engagement (changing workplace dynamics and relationships) 6. AI lets employees learn privately at their own pace. 7. It's always flattering and validating 😉

An extraordinary leadership paradox exists… Executives are increasingly willing to over-invest in AI's promise, but are they willing to challenge the business models, organizational structures, and leadership conventions that prevent AI from delivering transformational value in the first place? We may be building infinite∞ compute for finite thinking. infinitecompany.ai Credit: @Accenture
