While writing, I made a conscious effort to look past the hype and fleeting headlines around AI. Yes, it seems like there’s a new “AI miracle” in the news every other day, but in reality, AI isn’t new. It’s a mature and evolving discipline, and the insights you’ll find here will remain relevant for years to come. We won’t dwell long on flashy tools or “me-too” features such as the ubiquitous chatbot popping up on every website. Instead, my goal is to give you a clear, practical foundation for building real value with AI.
