A test of how seriously your firm is taking AI: when o-1 (& the new Gemini model) came out this week, were there assigned folks who immediately ran the model through your internal, validated, firm-specific benchmarks to see how useful it as? Did you update any plans or goals as a result?

Yeah. I was hoping we would use Gen so in more innovative and creative ways. Like maybe get rid of the course and find different ways to develop people.

So it begins.

I think firms worrying about AI hallucination should consider some questions:
1) How vital is 100% accuracy on a task?
2) How accurate is AI?
3) How accurate is the human who would do it?
4) How do you know 2 & 3?
5) How do you deal with the fact that humans are not 100%?
Not all tasks are the same.

I'm doing a webinar today. 36 hours ago I asked for L&D help with it, posting on X.com (13,500 followers) and on Bluesky (700).

The L&D community is generous. On Bluesky it listens and interacts. On X, it's deafened. The platform has been dead for me for active conversational use for a while now.

Aww thanks Mark! Sorry for the delay. I’m still learning the platform :)

What does “AI agent” even mean? 🤔 You’re not alone in wondering.
