A worthwhile essay. I'm old enough to remember when public organizations needed kicking to get online (one UN agency I worked with set up a web site despite management approval being refused). The tendency now, when it comes to AI, seems to be "jump on the bandwagon quick!"

This lunacy has infected even the EU. See 's announcement of tenders for "AI Gigafactories".

Finally, some stimulating words on what we actually DO at the office: https://berthub.eu/articles/posts/ai-for-decision-makers/
