How comfortable are you with AI companies slowly adopting the social medial business model? I prefer to be the customer instead of the product.

I'm excited to be heading to Portugal next week for Finalsite University. Honored for the opportunity and excited to connect.
#FinalsiteU #Portugal #InternationalAdmissions

Between the AISAP Master Class, course design, and upcoming speaking events, my schedule has been at capacity.

But I’ve also been reminded: the real flex isn’t how much you take on — it’s how well you choose what to carry.

Rest is on the horizon. And I plan to meet it with open arms!

Excited to be heading to Finalsite University in Portugal this month!

I’ll be speaking on building intentional pipelines for international families and how to shape admissions experiences that match the global realities we claim to serve.

If you’ll be attending, let’s connect.

The past few weeks have been a deep dive!

I'm excited to announce my AISAP Master Class launched! It's a 7-week journey through international admissions leadership, centered on ethical strategy, family insight, and real-world complexity.

The work will wait. Your energy won’t. Protect it! #NoWastedSundays.

Rest like it’s revenue, guard your time like it’s gold. #NoWastedSundays.

Protect your recharge time as ruthlessly as you protect revenue.
Say yes to what fuels you.
Say no to what drains you.
Rest and reflection aren’t luxuries; they’re strategic assets.

Your AI didn’t get dumber. The relationship broke.
Here’s how to rebuild it, mode by mode, habit by habit.
This isn’t prompt engineering. It’s partnership.

What if the biggest risk of AI wasn’t what it can do but what we stop doing in its presence? This isn’t another hot take. It’s a reflection on how we show up, co-create, and either shape or surrender authorship in a world that is increasingly automated. This essay introduces a concept: Kairship.

Had a thoughtful convo this week about AI and lesson planning. So much focus on what AI can do, less on how it might be thoughtfully used. The future isn’t automation for its own sake, it’s about aligning pedagogy with possibility. #RelationalAI #edtech

“How AI is used matters far more than whether it was used.”

(From a short experiment I ran with a detection tool… which, ironically, failed to detect the AI.)

I talk more about that in the guide: gptguide.mrmurrayiv.com

What do you think is harder to change:
• How we talk about AI
• Or how we relate to it?

I recently wrote a short guide on working with GPT instead of just using it.
It’s not technical. It’s not hype.
It’s personal, reflective, and practical.

Would love to know what it sparks.

A few weeks ago, I wrote a letter that was published in The New York Times. It’s about relational AI use, how we engage with these tools not just as outputs, but as reflective partners in our thinking.

Still sitting with what it means to see that conversation ripple out.

Reluctantly opened a new “social media” account…
Still prefer IRL conversations, but maybe this will help spark more of them.

I guess seeds can grow anywhere, so here’s one.
