    Can AI tell good Ajvar from bad Ajvar? This year, I grew vegetables, again. Nothing particularly revolutionary about that. Mostly peppers, and a few other things.

  • AI Risk: Getting Into Production Too Soon?

    There is a moment in almost every AI project when excitement starts to replace caution. The model works. The demo looks impressive. The numbers are good. Someone says, “We need to put this into production” And sometimes, that is exactly when the real risk begins. When AI leaves the laboratory I was recently reminded of…
