It sounds like a joke. “Maybe we should just ban AI on Friday afternoons.” But the more you think about it, the more it makes sense. By Friday, most people are running on fumes. The week’s been busy, there are things to finish before the weekend, and attention to detail isn’t always at its sharpest. […]
There’s a new layer being added to business decisions right now. An email gets drafted before you’ve fully thought it through. A report is summarised before you’ve read it. A system suggests an action and, increasingly, carries it out. None of this feels unusual anymore. AI isn’t only helping people do work. It’s starting to […]

AI is creeping into more parts of business than most people realise. It writes emails, helps analyse data, and powers tools your team might be using every day. And in many cases, it’s been adopted quickly. Which is great… until you stop and think about what would happen if something went wrong. A big issue, […]
Let me start with a question: If you needed a strong password, would you ask AI to generate one for you? It sounds reasonable enough. Tools like ChatGPT and Copilot can write reports, draft emails and even create bits of code. Asking them for a 16-character password packed with symbols and numbers feels like a […]
Have you noticed how many AI projects start with excitement… and then quietly go nowhere? I’m seeing it a lot. A demo here, a pilot there, plenty of internal chatter, but very little that makes it into day-to-day use. And it’s not because AI doesn’t work or isn’t valuable. In fact, a recent report suggests […]
Let me ask you a slightly uncomfortable question. Do you know which AI tools your team is using at work… and what they’re putting into them? Most business owners I speak to think they do. And then we dig a little deeper. Generative AI tools like ChatGPT and Gemini have slipped into everyday work incredibly fast. They’re […]
Here’s a question I suspect most business owners haven’t thought about yet. If one of your team buys something inside an AI chat window… is that okay with you? Because that’s exactly where things are heading. You’re probably already familiar with tools like Microsoft Copilot and ChatGPT helping people write emails, summarise documents, or answer questions. The […]
Have you ever wondered what your browser is doing in the background while you work? Most people think of a browser as a simple window to the internet. But a new wave of AI browsers is changing that idea completely. These tools are clever, fast, and can automate tasks that used to take minutes, or […]

Have you ever wished your computer just understood what you were trying to do, instead of making you dig through menus and search results to get there? Microsoft’s working on it. In the latest Windows 11 preview, there’s a new feature being tested called Ask Copilot. It’s taking centre stage right on your taskbar. Traditionally, […]

How do you really know if your people are making the most of AI at work? You’ve rolled out Microsoft Copilot. You’ve talked about how it can save time. How it can boost productivity. And how it can make day-to-day tasks easier. But how can you tell if your team is actually using it? Or […]
