AI Washing Hits UK PR
TL;DR: UK companies are pushing PR teams to market routine automation as artificial intelligence, leaving publicists warning of “AI washing.” Agencies say bosses are stretching weak claims into AI narratives, from scanners to chatbots, while journalists grow numb to the hype. The scramble reflects a wider race to look tech-focused as AI reshapes corporate branding globally. Read more →
Uber Hits AI Cost Wall
TL;DR: Uber’s AI coding rollout shows how fast agentic tools can become a budget problem.

CEO AI Delusion
TL;DR: Box CEO Aaron Levie warned that CEOs often overestimate AI because they see polished demos, not the messy production work behind them. A prototype or contract draft looks easy until teams must review code, verify terms, connect legacy systems, handle edge cases, and own outcomes. His point: enterprise agents need heavy use, skepticism, and last-mile discipline. Read more →
