learning technology

Vendors are a clever bunch of folks. Whether they are selling learning technology, content/courses, or even learning systems. I saw this firsthand at LTUK. Those who have Gen-AI in their system, platform content/courses, and technology are noted very visibly. Some who didn’t even have it pitched it at those vendor sessions on the floor. Lots…

If you have ever been unfortunate enough to watch my Dinner with Andre, you will recall it is two people across from one another talking. That’s it. Yes, I know, Academy Award material. Anyway, this won’t be that. I met up with GPT-4 earlier this week. The sun was out for our midday discussion. GPT-4…

Last week, I attended a conference in Amsterdam. The conference? World of AI Summit (as in Artificial Intelligence). While, as with any conference, there were good sessions, especially the opening sessions in the morning, I was a bit surprised at how many of the speakers never addressed a couple of points, including the “what happens…

LMS. LXP. Learning Platform. Talent Development Platform, all slide under the umbrella term of learning systems. Yet each one of them have similarities in terms of functionality they will need in 2024. Sure, TDPs may go X route, while the others go Y route, but in the general sense of it, there are capabilities that…

A few days ago, Brad Lightcap, in an interview with CNBC, stated, among other things, that “one of the most overhyped parts of artificial intelligence is that in one fell swoop, it can deliver substantive business change.” (The Verge OpenAI COO thinks AI for business is overhyped, Dec 4, 2023) He added that companies are…

This isn’t going to be a pleasant post for some. I am going to get comments that are “How dare you,” “Who else can I ask,” “Just seeking input and what business is it of yours,” and other favorable, err, unfavorable statements. Some people are going to be irritated. There will be CEOs from some…

Before diving into the topic this week, you probably realized that you haven’t seen any posts in the last two weeks. There is a reason for that, for those who were unaware. In the cliff notes version it goes like this – I suffered a near-drowning episode at the end of July, which admittingly I…

Learning Technology: LMS, LXP, LMS/LXP, Skills Platform, Learning Platform, Authoring Tools, Third-Party Content Providers, EdTech (K-12, Higher Education). E-Learning tools. EDP, and the list continues. Trust. Customer support, technical support, meeting obligations presented before or as part of the signing, promises unfilled, survival one minute, sale the next, consolidation (albeit the numbers are very small),…

The data shows that employees – perhaps your own employees are really concerned about AI replacing them. This isn’t from one source, or just one well-known entity espousing their study results, rather it is appearing in multiple studies, and not with just a few employees – but looking at it globally, with thousands of employees…

In the coming weeks, you will learn the Gen-AI terminology you need to know, with definitions (also available as a download in the learning library), and the latest learning technology/systems worth a few eyeballs. Plus, “Product Spotlight” covers one learning system that I dive into with lots of gusto – basically, it is a re-branded…
