I love Halloween, but over the years, I realized there are two types of people in this world (who celebrate Halloween or similar) when it comes to the 31st. Either the lights are on, and candy is waiting for everyone, or the lights are turned off, and you’re hiding in the back bedroom, so nobody…

There’s been a vibe shift in tech. Every job posting mentions AI, every startup pitch deck has “AI-powered” on slide two, and every developer is wondering if they’re about to be automated out of existence. So maybe it’s fitting that the latest development trend is literally called vibe coding, the process of using large language…

The reasoning behind this was that employees’ performance was better on-site than remote. The data, though, doesn’t support that premise. Companies from Gallup to Deloitte to McKinsey to…

Skills, Gig Economy, Training, Learning, Employee Onboarding, Job Role, Workforce Development, and AI-these are not just random words. They are interconnected elements that shape the future of our workforce. What do these seemingly disparate elements have in common? How do they intersect in the context of AI and workforce development? What if we added corporate…

Daniel Acuna has always wanted to talk to computers. Long before large language models, before Python and GPUs, he was a curious student in Chile trying to build a chatbot, without formally knowing how to program. “I thought I could interact with the computer,” he says. “And somehow, I got it to respond to a…
