The Economist wrote that the AI productivity boom is not here (https://www.economist.com/finance-and-economics/2026/02/22/the-ai-productivity-boom-is-not-here-yet)

Not because of tools, but because firms haven’t reorganized around them.

Some companies even try with Data & AI Literacy programs, but, again, nothing changes because literacy isn’t about knowing what a large language model is.

It’s about changing how people make decisions, use AI to become more efficient, how data is leveraged to make decisions.

That’s the hard part most organizations skip.

My colleagues Nina Stefels and Rozaliya Khafizova shared how to craft programs that work.

The power of open source!

This week, I saw a GNOME-only app named Hieroglyphic that finds LaTeX and typst symbols when you draw them on a canvas!

So, I went to work and created a version that runs on macOS! You can grab it on my fork page (and I’ve created a pull request in the meantime!)

LiteLLM (an AI Gateway to call 100+ LLM APIs in OpenAI format) suffered from a major supply-chain attack this week.

I just found out how easy it is to protect yourself from this when using uv

Cory Doctorow gives a beautiful explanation, backed by research, of how organizations come to be completely overrun with bullshit because love of corporate bullshit is correlated with bad judgment.

The antidote? Cut to the chase. Skip the hype. Tell it like it is. Keep it simple.

“When schools began treating Office proficiency as a prerequisite for adult life, instead of focusing on writing and thinking, we reached peak absurdity.”

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Beautiful pictures too.

This week, The Economist published an article on why AI is NOT increasing productivity

The killer quote is

All this signals a deeper flaw in the argument that ai is powering a productivity boom. Such improvements are usually made not just when workers use a new tool more often, but when firms reorganise production around it

My colleague Fanny Kassapian wrote about this challenge: reorganize your operating model or fail to gain any value from your data and AI initiatives.

Reducing the data returned to agents by 90-98%? That’s possible with structured outputs and skipping that results in err

Reducing the data returned to agents by 90-98%?

That’s possible with structured outputs and skipping that results in errors, LLMs forgetting the initial goals, higher costs, and more!

Read how my colleagues Rogier van der Geer and Victor de Oliveira fixed that at one of our largest customers!
