Companies pour billions into artificial intelligence, yet most fail to turn that investment into measurable business value. Colleen Jones writes for Content Science Review that this disconnect, which she calls the “AI strategy gap,” separates organizations that merely adopt AI tools from those that transform how they create value. The numbers support her argument. MIT …
The AI landscape is going through a big shift: New tools like Claude Cowork, ChatGPT Agent, and others promise to take over everyday work. They go well beyond just generating text or images: They are designed as digital assistants that actively support you and handle complex tasks independently. At least, this is their promise. But …
AI companies advertise ever-larger context windows for their language models, but a developer argues that the usable portion is far smaller than the marketed figures suggest. Garrit Franke writes in his blog Garrit’s Notes that effective model performance begins to degrade around 100,000 tokens, regardless of whether the advertised limit is 200,000, one million, or …
Starting August 2, 2026, the transparency obligations of the EU AI Act will apply, and this of course affects you as a content professional, if you are based in the EU. However, various pieces of misinformation are circulating about this law. For instance, just the other day I saw the claim that soon, all AI-generated …
If you want to use a tool effectively, it is important to first understand its capabilities and limitations. AI is no different. I even find it exciting to learn more about these systems that are able to do so many things but also fail at other tasks completely. It is often less than obvious what …
AI tools want to lure you to the dark side of content creation. They are not evil. They are just misguided. The root cause: AI assistants like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and others have been trained to be as helpful as possible. Because of this, they love to rush ahead and do way more than you …
Thousands of gig workers are earning money by having recorded conversations with strangers. The recordings are then sold as training data to artificial intelligence companies. Issie Lapowsky reports for Bloomberg Businessweek that the work is emotionally demanding, technically strict and raises serious questions about privacy and the future of human labor. The platform at the …
Large language models can build apps, predict protein structures and generate realistic videos. But they consistently fail at one fundamental human skill: writing well. Jasmine Sun reports for The Atlantic that modern AI systems are structurally built in ways that actively work against good writing. And that is quite surprising: Today’s most powerful AI models …
Lately, I’ve enjoyed the advantages of the multi-assistant lifestyle: Instead of deciding if I should subscribe to ChatGPT or to Gemini, I’ve been using both. Before, I’ve treated this like a monogamous relationship: You pick your partner and stick with them in good times and in bad times. But I came to the realization that …
AI detection tools for images and videos can identify some artificially generated content, but none are reliable enough to serve as definitive proof. Stuart A. Thompson reports for The New York Times that a series of more than 1,000 tests on over a dozen detection tools revealed significant gaps in accuracy. The tools scan for …
