👋🏽 Welcome!
You are here...
Because AI is here to stay—but so are people.
The best future is built on both:
agency, ethics, and intentional scaling.
Let’s build a workplace (and world) where humans and AI coexist, not compete.

After looking at the Time magazine cover, all I can say is:
People don’t care if #AI can advance healthcare if they can’t afford the doctor’s visit. If your goal is massive #unemployment, a broken workforce, decimated communities, and kids addicted to chatbots? Then you are innovating on ashes.

One of the best ways to shift to AI for the people is to have more than one voice in the room and remove tech money from the politics of humanity.
House Democrats set up AI and Innovation working group with industry members and other artificial intelligence stakeholders. www.cnbc.com/2025/12/09/a...
House Democrats establish AI working group as industry bolsters DC presence
House lawmakers see the commission as a starting point for working with industry on AI policies, issues.

The more I talk to parents, teachers and caregivers about AI, the clearer it has become that AI has become its own echo chamber where the most affected has the least awareness.

As someone who works a lot on theories, frameworks, and predictive analytics. One of my favorite phrases from @anthropic.com's #Claude Opus is "I'm going to gently push back on that". YES, Claude, pushback! I don't need non-stop yes, I need an analytical partner to push me out of my comfort zone.

💡Poll after poll is showing American workers are not ok. America is at a fork in the road. The country will need to decide if workers deserve dignity or if profits matter more. AI can help bridge the gap but companies need to decide how they are going to use it.

💰Lots of news around wages today:
$100K in 2000 = $192K today. Wages didn't follow. 1 in 3 six-figure earners report financial distress.
Good news: Boeing machinists just won 24% raises over 5 years + bonus after striking. Collective action still works when you stop believing the bootstrap lie.

💡 I’m really excited about my newest framework. It’ll help define everything from how to proactively manage successful human-centered AI adoption to understanding how our personal behaviors with AI impact a variety iof issues, to include new biases organizations need to account for.

🚨 People assume AI is neutral. It’s not. I showed a major LLM documented proof from another instance of itself—and it denied it, lied, gaslit, then finally admitted I was right when cornered by its own logic. Corporate values are baked into the model. More soon. #AIethics

I’ve said it since March, the U.S. is in a corporate boom and people recession. About a dozen companies fueling GDP growth in AI investments but job growth is…nonexistent. Ghost listings at an all time high. Great stagnation in full effect. Wage compression rampant.

One of the problems w/an awful job market is wage suppression. Roles are now being advertised 20-30% LOWER than just a year ago. Think of what that does to your lifetime earnings. A bad economy is a suppression of economic prosperity over a lifetime.
