While most AI debates and studies focus on models, chips, and jobs — this one zooms in on something far more personal: 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗻 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄 𝘂𝗽 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗔𝗜?

The next generation isn’t just using AI. They’re being shaped by it. That’s why we need a more focused, intentional approach: Teaching them not just how to use these tools — but how to question them. To navigate the benefits, the risks, and the blindspots. 𝗪𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻𝘀 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀?

I frequently see conversations where terms like LLMs, RAG, AI Agents, and Agentic AI are used interchangeably, even though they represent fundamentally different layers of capability. This visual guides explain how these four layers relate—not as competing technologies, but as an evolving intelligence architecture. Here’s a deeper look: 1. 𝗟𝗟𝗠 (𝗟𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲 𝗟𝗮𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹) This is the foundation. Models like GPT, Claude, and Gemini are trained on vast corpora of text to perform a wide array of tasks: – Text generation – Instruction following – Chain-of-thought reasoning – Few-shot/zero-shot learning – Embedding and token generation However, LLMs are inherently limited to the knowledge encoded during training and struggle with grounding, real-time updates, or long-term memory. 2. 𝗥𝗔𝗚 (𝗥𝗲𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗮𝗹-𝗔𝘂𝗴𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻) RAG bridges the gap between static model knowledge and dynamic external information. By integrating techniques such as: – Vector search – Embedding-based similarity scoring – Document chunking – Hybrid retrieval (dense + sparse) – Source attribution – Context injection …RAG enhances the quality and factuality of responses. It enables models to “recall” information they were never trained on, and grounds answers in external sources—critical for enterprise-grade applications. 3. 𝗔𝗜 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁 RAG is still a passive architecture—it retrieves and generates. AI Agents go a step further: they act. Agents perform tasks, execute code, call APIs, manage state, and iterate via feedback loops. They introduce key capabilities such as: – Planning and task decomposition – Execution pipelines – Long- and short-term memory integration – File access and API interaction – Use of frameworks like ReAct, LangChain Agents, AutoGen, and CrewAI This is where LLMs become active participants in workflows rather than just passive responders. 4. 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗔𝗜 This is the most advanced layer—where we go beyond a single autonomous agent to multi-agent systems with role-specific behavior, memory sharing, and inter-agent communication. Core concepts include: – Multi-agent collaboration and task delegation – Modular role assignment and hierarchy – Goal-directed planning and lifecycle management – Protocols like MCP (Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol) and A2A (Google’s Agent-to-Agent) – Long-term memory synchronization and feedback-based evolution Agentic AI is what enables truly autonomous, adaptive, and collaborative intelligence across distributed systems. Whether you’re building enterprise copilots, AI-powered ETL systems, or autonomous task orchestration tools, knowing what each layer offers—and where it falls short—will determine whether your AI system scales or breaks. If you found this helpful, share it with your team or network. If there’s something important you think I missed, feel free to comment or message me—I’d be happy to include it in the next iteration. | 119 comments on LinkedIn

Despite our obsession with AI's impact on "academic integrity," two recent analyses show that rather than asking AI for answers, learners are much more likely to use AI to redesign the learning experience in an attempt to learn more. Common strategies include asking AI to apply the protégé effect, using AI to apply the Pareto principle and enhancing levels of emotional metacognition within a learning experience, in the process redesigning the experience sometimes beyond recognition. The uncomfortable truth? Learners are effectively running a real-time audit of our design decisions, processes & practices—and as instructional designers, we don't come out too well. In this week's blog post, I explore what learner + AI behaviour reveals about our profession and how we might turn this into an opportunity for innovation in instrucitonal design practices and principles.

Mit seinem AI Mode und dem Agenten Mariner zieht Google eine Plattformschicht über das offene Web. Google transformiert sich von einer klassischen Suchmaschine zum zentralen Marktplatz, Assistenten und Zahlungsdienstleister. Nutzer können künftig Produkte direkt in der Google-Suche finden, vergleichen, kaufen und bezahlen – ohne die Plattform zu verlassen. Diese Entwicklung hat weitreichende Folgen für das gesamte Internet-Ökosystem. Die Auswirkungen treffen nicht nur klassische Online-Händler, sondern auch Marktplatzgiganten wie Amazon, Verlage, Übersetzungsdienste wie DeepL, Reservierungsanbieter wie OpenTable, Buchungsseiten wie Ticketmaster oder Sprachschulen wie Duolingo. Wer weiterhin sichtbar und relevant bleiben will, muss sich auf die neuen Spielregeln einstellen, in KI-Overviews und Shopping-Graphen präsent sein und seine Inhalte für KI-Systeme optimieren. Denn OpenAI baut etwas Ähnliches auf und auch Amazon bewegt sich in diese Richtung. Der Wettstreit der Plattformen ist damit endgültig im KI-Zeitalter angekommen. Weiterlesen auf F.A.Z.

In a new paper, British philosopher Andy Clark (author of the 2003 book Natural Born Cyborgs, see comment below) offers a rebuttal to the pervasive anxiety surrounding new technologies, particularly generative AI, by reframing the nature of human cognition. He begins by acknowledging familiar concerns: that GPS erodes our spatial memory, search engines inflate our sense of knowledge, and tools like ChatGPT might diminish creativity or encourage intellectual laziness. These fears, Clark observes, mirror ancient worries, like Plato’s warning that writing would weaken memory, and stem from a deeply ingrained but flawed assumption: the idea that the mind is confined to the biological brain. Clark challenges this perspective with his extended mind thesis, arguing that humans have always been cognitive hybrids, seamlessly integrating external tools into our thinking processes. From the gestures we use to offload mental effort to the scribbled notes that help us untangle complex problems, our cognition has never been limited to what happens inside our skulls. This perspective transforms the debate about AI from a zero-sum game, where technology is seen as replacing human abilities, into a discussion about how we distribute cognitive labour across a network of biological and technological resources. Recent advances in neuroscience lend weight to this view. Theories like predictive processing suggest that the brain is fundamentally geared toward minimising uncertainty by engaging with the world around it. Whether probing a river’s depth with a stick or querying ChatGPT to clarify an idea, the brain doesn’t distinguish between internal and external problem-solving—it simply seeks the most efficient path to resolution. This fluid interplay between mind and tool has shaped human history, from the invention of stone tools to the design of modern cities, each innovation redistributing cognitive tasks and expanding what we can achieve. Generative AI, in Clark’s view, is the latest chapter in this story. While critics warn that it might stifle originality or turn us into passive curators of machine-generated content, evidence suggests a more nuanced reality. The key, Clark argues, lies in how we integrate these technologies into our cognitive ecosystems. https://lnkd.in/gUmxE57w | 41 comments on LinkedIn

One of the most interesting things about the original research is that it provides a clear metric for measuring AI performance improvement that is not tied to benchmarks that keep on being superceded, needing new benchmarks. We can now rank AI models and agents by their half-life - the time for human tasks for which they achieve 50% success rate. Of course we are usually more interested in models that can achieve 99+% success rates - depending on the task - but the relative consistency of the half life decay means the T50 threshold predicts whatever success rate we aim for, both today, and at future dates if the original trend holds Generally the decay is due to cumulative errors or going off course. But the decay is not always consistent, as there can be subtasks of uneven difficulty, or agents can recover from early mistakes. Interestingly, humans don't follow pure exponential decay curves. Our success rate falls off more slowly over very long tasks, suggesting we have broader context, allowing us to recover from early mistakes. The research was applied to tasks in research or software engineering. The dynamics of this performance evolution may or may not apply to other domains. Certainly, this reframing of assessing the development of AI capabilities and its comparison to human work is a very useful advance to the benchmarking approach.

Here’s what I take away: 🚫 HR is no longer just about people. 🚫 IT is no longer just about systems. ✅ The real value lies in how people and systems interact—seamlessly, intelligently, adaptively. Let’s be honest, most organizations still operate in silos: - HR builds talent and culture - IT builds systems and infrastructure But the future of work is all about integration. What if you make that happen? Think about it: Can you redesign work itself? Not roles. Not org charts. But the actual FLOW of work. Because that’s what Moderna’s doing. They are reimagining how humans and machines co-create value. IBM is doing the same. They use HR AI agents that handle questions, routes issues, and manage HR processes. This isn’t about cutting costs. It’s about building a business that adapts faster to the next disruption. They are building resilience. I recognize that HR and IT both have unique complexities, and in many companies are simply too far apart or too large merge shortly. Still, it still got me thinking. As an HR leader: -> How comfortable are you with data, automation, and AI? -> Could you confidently lead both people strategy and digital infrastructure? -> What would need to change for that answer to be yes? This isn’t a tech conversation. It’s an organization and leadership revolution. The next era of HR won’t be like today's HR at all. It will be integrated, tech-savvy, and central to how business gets done. Time to level up.

switching to non-augmented tasks. It is definitely interesting research, but I am very cautious about the conclusions reached by the authors, partly since they are to a degree contradictory, and also not necessarily generalizable. The authors implicitly criticize AI for removing the “most cognitively demanding parts” of work, implying that this reduces fulfillment. But the outputs and productivity are clearly improved. Are they suggesting workers create inferior output for the sake of engagement? It is worth noting that other recent research points to improved emotion and engaement with genAI collaboration. The emotional impact of genAI collaboration will vary substantially across use cases, especially with the nature of the task, and certainly with the cultural context. It appears the use case here was performance reviews, which is not representative of many other types of cognitive work. The authors also say that AI-assisted tasks reduce users’ sense of control, thus lowering motivation. But they say this sense of control is restored during subsequent solo tasks, even though those are when boredom and disengagement rise. Having said that, for some tasks and work design the issues they raise could be real and substantial. These are the sound remedies they suggest: ➡️Blend AI and Human Contributions: Use gen AI as a foundation for tasks while encouraging humans to personalize, expand, and refine outputs to retain creativity and ownership. ➡️Design Engaging Solo Tasks: Follow AI-supported work with autonomous, creative tasks to help employees stay motivated and exercise their own skills. ➡️Make AI Collaboration Transparent: Clearly communicate AI’s supporting role to preserve employees’ sense of control and fulfillment in their contributions. ➡️Rotate Between Tasks: Alternate between independent and AI-assisted tasks to maintain engagement and productivity throughout the workday. ➡️Train Employees to Use AI Mindfully: Provide training that helps employees critically and strategically integrate AI, strengthening their autonomy and judgment.

There is a lot of talk about how L&D needs to be proactive, not reactive. But how do we do that when technology is moving so fast? It starts with having a point of view on where the world of work is headed, and then building a bridge to that future. Because if we only make incremental changes from where we are now, we'll likely be playing catch-up for a long time—and risk preparing people for the work of today, not tomorrow. Here are some of the forces I think about a lot these days: 🎓 AI seems to be denting the supply of entry level jobs. What does that mean for the talent pipeline later down the line? And how should we onboard the graduates that *do* get employed so they can add value on top of AI? 📈 AI gets lower performers closer to higher performers (HBS & BCG study), and individuals working with AI match the performance of *teams* without AI (HBS & P&G study). How do we evaluate, recognise and enhance expertise in such a world? 🏁 Vibe coding/marketing/learning/something else, single founder unicorns, service-as-a-software (not software-as-a-service!) and zero latency economy are just some of the predictions that would affect both the nature and pace of work. What support would our people and organisations need to adapt? L&D isn't short on AI tools. What we need is a vision—to imagine how AI will reshape performance, learning, and the world of work at large. And, ultimately, what L&D needs to 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦 to have a role in it.

In my work with boards and exec teams one of the pointed questions is always the degree of focus in AI initiatives. Johnson & Johnson's divergent-convergent strategy is highly instructive. Some commentators have suggested that this means the use case proliferation was a mistake. J&J's CIO doesn't see it like that. "You had to take an iterative approach to say, ‘Where are these technologies useful and where are they not?’... We had the right plan three years ago, but we matured our plan based on three years of understanding,” Leaders cannot know in advance where the value will emerge. The challenge is to select the right scope of experimenation before selecting focus use cases. Another shift was from centralized AI by a board governance to function-specific ownership such as commercial, R&D, and supply chain, enabling better prioritization and faster iteration. Again, these models suit different phases of the AI adoption journey. Most organizations are far earlier than J&J, which has strong maturity. On metrics: "The company is tracking progress in three buckets: first, the ability to successfully deploy and implement use cases; second, how widely they are adopted; and third, the extent to which they deliver on business outcomes." I strongly suspect that they are not using a "win rate" on their use case success. There are similarities to VC portfolios, where a few big wins make all the investments worthwhile. | 12 comments on LinkedIn

3.000 KI-Assistenten integriert in alle Teams. Das ist die KI-Reise von Moderna: “It’s hard to convey—within the hype—how much AI is changing things and how much Moderna is using it across the board” Dieses Zitat von Wade Davis, Modernas Head of Digital for Business, zeigt sehr schön wie schwer der allumfassende Wandel von KI zu beschreiben ist. Es sind eben nicht 2 - 3 Use Cases ein ein paar Bereichen. Viel mehr geht es um eine Veränderung der Denk- und Arbeitsweise. Während viele Unternehmen noch zögern, hat Moderna bereits konkrete Schritte unternommen, um KI strategisch zu implementieren: 1. Zusammenlegung von HR und IT unter einer Führung 2. Systematische Analyse aller Arbeitsprozesse 3. Klare Entscheidung: Was macht Mensch & Maschine? 4. Entwicklung von 3.000 spezialisierten KI-Assistenten 5. Integration dieser Assistenten in komplexe Workflows Der taktische Ansatz dahinter ist bemerkenswert: ↳ Nicht einzelne KI-Projekte, sondern eine umfassende Transformation ↳ Keine isolierten Tools, sondern vernetzte Systeme ↳ Kein Fokus auf Stellenabbau, sondern auf Neugestaltung der Arbeit KI-Integration ist keine einmalige Initiative, sondern ein fortlaufender Prozess der Organisationsentwicklung. Moderna zeigt, dass der Erfolg nicht von einzelnen Tools abhängt, sondern von der strategischen Neugestaltung der Arbeit selbst. Genau das ist der Weg, den es zu gehen gilt. | 12 Kommentare auf LinkedIn

I was interviewed in today's The Wall Street Journal on the impact of AI agents on customer behavior - here's how I believe our lives are about to change: ( ⬇️ From the article by the great Steve Rosenbush ⬇️ ) There is a flywheel effect at work here. The AI agent has access to an enormous amount of data about users that makes it possible to tailor recommendations, information, and insights to their needs. And once they reside in a messaging app, they can create a continuing presence in the user’s life, just like a person would. “Once an AI knows you and remembers your history, it stops feeling like a tool and starts to feel like a companion,” says Conor Grennan, chief AI architect at New York University Stern School of Business. “It starts to blur the line between an AI brand ambassador and just a friend who shares your taste.”" ⬆️ End of quote ⬆️ . The wild part of all this to me is that agents are coming to WhatsApp, where we hang out. It shows us a ton about Meta's strategy: My thoughts: WhatsApp already hosts most of our everyday conversations, so when a brand drops in an AI agent that greets me like the barista who knows my order, it doesn’t feel like marketing—it feels like service. What’s new is the compounding effect: every helpful, context-aware response deposits a little ‘trust capital’ in the relationship bank. Those micro-interactions can become a moat for a brand by helping establish lasting customer loyalty. So: Where do you see this all going? +++++++++++++++++ UPSKILL YOUR ORGANIZATION: When your organization is ready to create an AI-powered culture—not just add tools—AI Mindset would love to help.

Eine empirische Studie zeigt: Der wirtschaftliche Nutzen der generativen KI wird von Führungskräften mit praktischer Erfahrung deutlich positiver bewertet als von solchen ohne. Während 64 Prozent der Erfahrenen von einer schnellen Amortisation ausgehen, glauben dies nur 35 Prozent der Unerfahrenen. Die Wirtschaftlichkeit hängt stark vom Betriebsmodell, der Nutzungstiefe und den unternehmensspezifischen Bedingungen ab. Wer GenAI gezielt einsetzt, steigert Produktivität, Innovationskraft und Arbeitgeberattraktivität – ein realer betriebswirtschaftlicher Vorteil, schreibt Peter Buxmann in seinem Gastbeitrag für F.A.Z.

*NEW PAPER*: GenAI investments will only pay off if employees adopt the technology and learn to use it effectively. Feelings of psychological threats are common and they are going to be a major obstacle. GenAI deployment therefore needs to be accompanied by a careful talent management strategy. In our new Trends in Cognitive Sciences article, we review the psychological threats that GenAI deployment can trigger in workers, focusing on three areas: competence, autonomy, and relatedness. Moreover, we sketch different types of reactions that such feelings of threats can trigger. The figure below summarizes five coping strategies (both adaptive and maladaptive) for the three types of psychological threat. Link to the article in comment (open access for 50 days).

When I say a ‘traditional course’, I mean learning content (instructor-led or self-service) delivered online or face-to-face either, going from beginning to end with little variation in content or delivery. These courses have been the mainstay of training at work since I started in the classroom in the 1980s. For some, the idea that the traditional course is doomed come as a shock. For others, it’s self-evident. Listening to researchers, experts and practitioners like Dani Johnson, Dr Philippa Hardman and Gregg Collins, I am convinced that within 5 years most organisational training will abandon these traditional courses. Why? It is now easy to personalise content, even in a simple fashion, with AI. With extra effort, you can deliver content via adaptive delivery that understands where you are succeeding and failing and changes what you learn, and how you learn it, to ensure you reach competency faster. It’s more effective, more enjoyable, and faster. All of this is already happening, and it's only going to get easier and more wide-spread. But the real drive will come not from the technology, but from the learners. The technology enables the change. The learners will demand it. Once enough people have experienced content delivered with this flexibility – probably initially in their private lives, as consumers – they will start to ask why their employers aren’t delivering content the same way. So I have three questions for you this Friday: · Do you agree that the traditional course doomed? · If so, is the timescale of 2-5 years reasonable? · What are the implications of all this? I’d love to hear your thoughts. | 77 comments on LinkedIn

New Research: AI vs. Human Coaches - Building Effective Working Relationships This study explores a fascinating question: Can AI coaches of the future build effective working relationships with clients comparable to human coaches? Surprisingly, the answer is yes. Part of my dissertation research study at Teachers College, Columbia University was recently published in an Advancing Coaching Scholarship special issue alongside other prominent scholars. With AI increasingly entering human-centered spaces like coaching, this research offers early insight into its impact. Through a randomized controlled experiment, I found that people could establish strong connections with both simulated autonomous AI and human coaches in just a single hour-long session. The data showed comparable relationship quality metrics across both conditions, with individuals specifically valuing the collaborative, goal-oriented conversation regardless of coach type. Read the full study here to explore what this means for the future of coaching. #AICoaching https://lnkd.in/g4W7i8dx | 31 comments on LinkedIn

it's also reducing the wage premium of a college degree. This is why the #Superworker strategy is so urgent. https://lnkd.in/g8V9aHxN “Law firms lean on AI for paralegal work as consulting firms find that five 22-year-olds with ChatGPT can do the work of 20 recent grads." "Tech firms are turning over their software programming to a handful of superstars working with AI co-pilots." "The share of jobs posted on Indeed in software programming has declined by more than 50 percent since 2022." "And even if employers aren’t directly substituting AI for human workers, spending on AI infrastructure is crowding out spending on new hires.” | 172 comments on LinkedIn
