NIST AI RMF vs ISO/IEC 42001
From Risk Principles to Auditable Practice Most organisations now realise that AI governance can’t be improvised. Risk registers, codes of conduct, and policy checklists aren’t enough, not when regulators, investors, and auditors are watching. What’s missing is coherence across frameworks. Two standards now dominate that space: the NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF) and… Read more

How human cells are rewiring the future of computing
A drop of thought A single droplet falls onto a silicon chip. It contains living human neurons, suspended in nutrient solution. They were grown from stem cells, carefully cultivated into dense networks capable of firing, adapting, and responding to their environment. They’ve never been part of a body. They are not here to restore memory… Read more

MCP and the Illusion of Control
We’re standardising the cables while the system rewires itself in real time. That’s what it feels like watching the current obsession with Model Context Protocol, or MCP. In 2025, this once-obscure specification has become the centre of attention for AI developers, compliance teams, and safety researchers. It’s been called “USB-C for AI”, a plug-and-play standard… Read more

Governance is the missing layer in AI Agent design
The autonomy paradox Autonomous AI agents are no longer a speculative future, they’re already at work. From customer service bots that schedule appointments to internal copilots that automate documentation or code review, these systems are increasingly capable of making decisions and taking actions without any human intervention. This rise in autonomy brings clear benefits: speed,… Read more

From Standard RAG to Agentic RAG
How Retrieval-Augmented Generation is evolving into Self-RAG and Agentic RAG Systems Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has become one of the most widely used techniques in enterprise AI systems. It combines large language models with external knowledge sources, enabling more grounded and context-aware outputs. For many applications, especially those involving static documents or FAQs, RAG offers a… Read more

Agentic AI governance is now a business imperative
Enterprise AI has moved past assistants that wait for instructions. We are now dealing with systems that can pursue objectives independently, make decisions in real time, and act without being told. These are not chatbots or copilots. These are autonomous agents with the capacity to plan, adapt, and take initiative based on defined goals. In… Read more

Stochastic parrots and the illusion of understanding in AI
Imagine a parrot that has learned to mimic human speech. It can repeat complex phrases in multiple languages, yet it has no idea what those words mean. In the world of artificial intelligence, researchers have drawn an analogy between such parrots and today’s large language models (LLMs). These AI systems – from autocomplete tools to… Read more

How AI is shaping our behaviour and privacy
We wake up to the glow of a smartphone screen, check a flurry of overnight notifications, and scroll through an endless feed of updates before even getting out of bed. It’s a routine shared by billions, and it underscores how pervasive artificial intelligence (AI) and persuasive technology have become in our daily lives. On average… Read more

The 2025 Stanford AI Index
And its implications for the future of AI and society. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become an integral part of our daily lives, transforming industries, societies, and economies at an unprecedented rate. The 2025 Stanford AI Index Report offers a comprehensive, data driven look at AI’s progress, impact, and challenges. However, beneath the surface of impressive… Read more

Claude 3 and the Alignment Dilemma
How Different AI Models Learn to Reflect Human Values 1. Introduction: Claude 3 and the Real Breakthrough Claude 3, Anthropic’s latest AI model, has captured the attention of the tech world with its performance. It is faster, more capable, and remarkably fluent in conversation. Yet the most important development is not the model’s intelligence, but… Read more
