Brutal.
Last quarter I rolled out Microsoft Copilot to 4,000 employees. $30 per seat per month. $1.4 million annually. I called it "digital transformation." The board loved that phrase. They approved it in eleven minutes. No one asked what it would actually do. Including me. I

OpenAI released ChatGPT 5.2 and I translated it into executive English. The short version: it finally remembers page one when it gets to page sixty, and that changes which workflows are worth automating. https://t.co/p5d19gasSM

Model numbers keep climbing. This time, the upgrade that matters is the one your contracts have been waiting for.

Most executives assume their AI rollout is blocked by budget or technology. OpenAI's latest data suggests otherwise. The companies seeing 8x more usage aren't running better pilots. They're changing behavior, and the gap is widening faster than you think. https://t.co/CHQ0s356yx

A million businesses have access to the same AI. Most of them are still stuck at the pilot stage.

I tested Gemini with a messy PDF, two dashboard screenshots, and a question that would normally go to an analyst. It answered like a smart colleague who'd actually read the footnotes. That's the multimodal shift: AI that sees your work as it actually exists, not as a cleaned-up

Gemini 3 Pro just looked at your 90-page contract and had thoughts.

If you're not using @GoogleDeepMind #AIStudio yet for prototyping and testing - you are SERIOUSLY missing out.

I built a fully functional software agent in ten minutes without writing a single line of code. The real question isn't whether this is possible; it's whether your organization is ready for what happens when every employee can do the same. https://t.co/dmNJdJFu5m

No Jira ticket. No sprint planning. No six-week estimate. Just a working solution.

GEMINI
Gemini 3 has a capability most people don't even know exists. it's not the 1M tokens. it's not the multimodal processing. it's something else entirely. And it's the reason I built 3,000+ prompts specifically for Gemini 3. Everyone talks about Gemini's specs: → 1 million

I gave @claudeai Opus 4.5 a 50-page PDF and asked for a Board deck. Two minutes later, I had a downloadable PowerPoint with ten slides, working charts, and structure that made sense. This changes everything about how AI fits into actual work if you live in a world that revolves

Anthropic finally figured out what we actually do all day

Ok mind blown. Seriously. I wrote about the new Opus 4.5 today and I happened to see an article that they just allowed the new Claude / Excel add-in for Max users. I had been waiting for access. Holy fuck. It is REALLY REALLY REALLY fucking good. In my excel app on my Mac.

Ok it’s time to live the talk. I truly believe that Gemini 3 is the #1 model in the world right now on nearly every metric - and by a substantial margin. So I’m going to go 100% all-in on Gemini 3 Pro only for everything. No ChatGPT 5.1, no Claude Sonnet 4.5, no Grok 4.1, no Kimi

Most AI tools are really good at giving you more work disguised as help. Google’s new Gemini 3 Pro is betting on something different: AI that actually finishes tasks instead of just starting them. I wrote about what that looks like for your team and your operations.

Your team has been drowning in AI suggestions. Google's betting you'd rather have AI execution.

Your team is comparing Google's Gemini against OpenAI and Anthropic. But you're probably asking the wrong question. The real story isn't which model is 2% better this month - it's why Google suddenly has the organizational structure to keep improving while everyone else is

Dashboard debates eat weeks and produce nothing. I tested three LLMs on the same Series A brief - one delivered a board-ready mock, two didn't - plus the exact prompt to try Monday. https://t.co/HLOYswSeLr

I fed the same prompt to three LLMs and got three different executive dashboards. One was board-ready, one was getting there, one missed the mark. Here's the breakdown and the exact prompt.
