Even accepting the premise that AI produces useful writing (which no one should), using AI in education is like using a forklift at the gym. The weights do not actually need to be moved from place to place. That is not the work. The work is what happens within you.

I know multiple people who started a small business in the last few years who were thriving up until 2025...
...and are now considering shutting down their business entirely. It's nuts.

I had not one, but two people say the phrase "Chatham House Rule" to me this week.
Despite my love of British TV and literature, I had somehow never heard this very British phrase.
But I like the concept. I'm hoping to create spaces where people can be open and share how they REALLLY feel.

For my climate tech startup friends, the Google Accelerator program for startups using #AI for nature and climate is open!
This is a great opportunity for seed and Series A #startups working toward nature protection, conservation, and restoration.

Yay I guess? But 8.2% of all venture funding going to women is pretty dire.

Massachusetts is making a billion-dollar bet on climate tech. Here’s how. - The Boston Globe
Governor Maura Healey recently signed a $4 billion economic development deal that will provide a firehose of funds for clean-tech companies, with the goal of making the state an industry leader.

Well, this is the very negative reading of what I spoke about before: climate change is VERY expensive.
Insurance companies won't pay for it anymore. It's changing everything. Including home values.

With the US pulling out of the Paris Climate Agreement (again), there's doom and gloom in #climate circles.
However, it's nearly impossible for business leaders to ignore the impact of climate. This is where I see change happening - not in government, but in the private sector.
