Everything all at once
Life, Chavisa Boonpiti, Published on 08/11/2025
» Bangkok is often described through its heat and rhythm, but it's easier to notice what doesn't move. Outside, the air ripples, motorbikes weave and heat sticks to skin. But, stepping inside, everything stops at the glass. The air turns cool, predictable. Music hums softly from invisible speakers, escalators glide as though the city never sweats. Here, you can eat, shop, exercise, unwind and never once face the weather. It's Bangkok, distilled: frictionless and fluorescent.

In pursuit of the good life
Life, Niki Chatikavanij, Published on 04/10/2025
» Several weeks ago, a thoughtful Facebook post by renowned Thai author and thought leader Roundfinger went viral. His thoughts on "longevity" sparked engagement and discussion.

When health becomes the new status symbol
BitesizeBKK, Published on 02/10/2025
» Nowadays, there’s an expensive price tag and a high social currency associated with wellness and longevity. The latter already sparked a viral online debate in Thailand mere weeks ago, with thought leaders and influencers sharing their interpretation of longevity, and whether it’s turned into a measure of wealth, therefore creating pressure for the aspiring class and demanding you keep up appearances by investing in ice baths, wearing tech devices and measuring your sleep quality. Whilst advocating for wellness is all well and good, there are more ways to live a balanced life than constantly quantifying and tracking your wearables.
AI will overpromise and underdeliver
Life, James Hein, Published on 27/08/2025
» Let's start with a few brief comments on the current state of artificial intelligence. Specially targeted and trained AI models are improving. These are things like detecting something in an X-ray or hunting for potential chemical candidates for a compound to attack a specific condition. Generating pictures and videos is also improving rapidly, and by the end of the year the majority of people will not be able to tell the difference between the real thing and the AI fake. Large Language Models are still unpredictable and can give false or fake answers depending on the structure of the prompts, so be careful with the answer you get from these. The current corporate buy-in for AI is well beyond what it can deliver. This is driven by marketing, not the actual state of capabilities. My prediction is there will be a lot of out-of-pocket organisations of all types disappointed by results.
