I'm generally a curious person, and lots of ideas pop into my head, and it's been a lifelong frustration that I couldn't really talk through them with anyone. l love that ChatGPT is an excellent discussion partner, as long as you push to get opposing views. I feel smarter now!

I bought my daughter some nice-quality watercolors for her birthday. I thought I’d take the old ones for a spin—it’s been a while since I attempted a watercolor urban sketch.

Seems like a good time to re-up this sustainability cartoon of mine... It makes me so furious when people say we "can't afford" climate mitigation. Now we have to pay for all the damage AND the mitigation at the same time...

I’m slightly surprised to find I’m looking forward to the coming year. I think limiting news and social media recently has helped!

I'm a proud European. But this is painful -- a comparison of big US vs EU companies created in the last 50 years (SAP is slightly older). open.substack.com/pub/adamtooz...

Stack ranking is where you define a % of people that have to be designed as low performers. It turns out to be a great way to drive dysfunctional behavior, as people undermine each other to make sure that they’re not the lowest on the list, or avoid joining high-performance teams.

"Provide unbearable levels of sophistication" by Anthropic Claude and @emollick.bsky.social . Insisting that this isn't creative, because it's the result of an algorithm, seems like a losing battle to me. (And yes the 7th arrondissement of Paris is unbearably sophisticated 😀 )

Out of all the cartoons I’ve created, my favorites are always the most cynical ones… is there any aspect of technology transformation that leaders get more wrong than this? #changemanagement #cartoon

Am I *really* the only person that saw Pantone's color of the year for 2025 ("Mocha Mousse"), and immediately thought it captured a different aspect of next year's prospects?!

Small Beats Big! If you’re using AI to solve a specific business need, as part of a business process, and you have the right data grounding framework (if you don’t, then there’s no point in going further!), then a smaller, faster, cheaper model will likely be a better fit. #ai #sapbtp
