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…

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…

There are people who believe this is the best time of the year. The holidays are just around the corner. Vacation – the true part of the workplace holiday spirit – is just around the corner. Sure the days of potluck are gone (for most folks), after all, hard to have potluck when 10 people…

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…

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),…

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…

Where to go. That’s where I was this morning, actually the day before. Normally, I have an idea of what to write. Other times, an epiphany that zings into my brain on the day of the post. Then there are “this is what I will write” only to change my mind at the last second.…

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…

I’ve written in the past about MCP (Model Context Protocol) for learning and training (via learning systems), albeit a link to a highly confusing and yet the best version of explanation on the net. MCP, which I will use going forward, is best in explanation to something everyone else can relate to. Let’s say back…
