In my Tech Trends 2026 report, I wrote about "Service as Software" as the new business model competing with SaaS in which customers pay for outcomes. On stage at SaaS North, Vidyard CEO Michael Litt had a different term for the trend: Results as a Service (RaaS). betakit.com/is-saas-dead... #CIOsky

Don't think that big tech won't try to use its market power to push out AI agent competitors. They don't want to lose the relationship with the customer, and there's a threat of that happening as AI agents rise in popularity. #CIOsky #AIagents

I'd say this is the sort of "high risk AI systems" that the EU AI Act is talking about. You know, considering that police pointed loaded guns at a 16 year old that was at school. #CIOsky #AIrisk #AIsurveillance

Android now remembers if I turn on WiFi or Bluetooth in airplane mode and turns it on by default the next time I use airplane mode. So what's left for the sanctity of airplane mode? Just cellular?
