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.

» Embarking on a journey through Vietnam, one may find the allure of cities like Hanoi, Sapa, Hue and Da Nang. However, the southern gem of Ho Chi Minh City or Saigon has been an unsung hero in recent years. Despite being Vietnam's largest city and a nexus of culture, history, and commerce, it seems the city has been overshadowed. Our insightful guide Yuu pondered: "Perhaps familiarity with the city has bred a desire for new horizons or maybe Ho Chi Minh hasn't been given the tourism spotlight it deserves."
