Can large language models figure out the real world? A new approach assesses how deeply predictive AI systems understand their subject matter, and whether they can apply knowledge from one domain to a slightly different one.

What AI Can Teach Us About Designing Better KPIs How to avoid Goodhart’s Law, or gaming behavior, in organizations, using methods adapted from AI training techniques.

How machine learning reframes KPI design: systems optimize relentlessly.

So the real leadership question isn’t “Are we tracking performance?”

It’s “Are we tracking the right signals?”

Why AI Adoption Stalls, According to Industry Data Many companies report widespread AI usage but disappointing returns, assuming the problem lies in execution rather than adoption. New research shows that AI initiatives often stall because employees’ industry-shaped anxiety about relevance, identity, and job security drives surface-level use without real commitment. Leaders who treat AI adoption as a psychological and contextual challenge—not just a technical rollout—are far more likely to convert experimentation into sustained impact.

Why do so many organizations report AI adoption, yet see limited returns?

Fear of becoming less relevant, or even replaced, leads employees to “use” AI without truly embracing it.

Treat AI as a human transformation, not just a tech rollout.

Harold Sinnott and Rahul Kumar stand together at the IBM booth during Mobile World Congress 2026 in Barcelona, smiling in front of the IBM Quantum System Two display. Both wear MWC badges as the quantum computing hardware and IBM branding appear behind them inside the busy exhibition stand.

Telecom networks are evolving into AI-driven systems capable of sensing, learning, and adapting.

That was one of my biggest takeaways from @IBM’s telco discussions at #MWC26

Why autonomy is becoming operational intelligence.

Futuristic illustration titled “Autonomous Networks at MWC26: When AI Becomes Operational Intelligence” showing an IBM Quantum System Two computer in a high-tech control room overlooking Barcelona. A glowing AI brain graphic represents algorithms, learning, and intent-based operations feeding closed-loop automation, while professionals review a digital dashboard displaying autonomous network capabilities such as self-healing, zero-touch operations, and AI insights.

A key takeaway from conversations at the @IBM booth during #MWC26:

Autonomous networks will emerge not only through automation, but through AI-driven observability, hybrid cloud platforms, and operational intelligence.

My reflections.

Two men take a selfie inside the Ericsson pavilion at Mobile World Congress 2026 in Barcelona. Harold Sinnott and Mattias Lindvall stand in the foreground smiling, with Ericsson branding visible above a circular display structure showcasing illuminated cubes with images. Behind them, attendees gather around demonstration stations and interactive screens inside the busy exhibition space.

One of the key shifts I observed at #MWC26:

The telecom industry is moving from asking
“Can we automate networks?”
to asking
“How does autonomy drive measurable value?”

Reflections from the @Ericsson pavilion.

#AI @MWCHub @GSMA @Ericsson

At #MWC26, autonomy in telecom is being reframed.

Not as a collection of automation tools, but as a control philosophy for modern networks, aligning intent, AI, and architecture.

How to Create a Superintelligent Agent? Let’s face it—artificial intelligence remains a misunderstood subject. Across the consumer, business, and industry sectors, many people are still unsure about its role, purpose, and capabilities. Questions persist: Will AI take our jobs? Could society one day be dominated by autonomous machines? Might we even confront debates about “robot rights”? While such concerns make for compelling headlines, the reality is rather less dramatic. True superintelligent humanoids remain firmly in the realm of

How to Create a Superintelligent Agent?

Today’s AI systems, however impressive, are still the result of clever programming and smart technology.

The future of work isn’t Human vs. Machine.

We’re moving toward a "tripartite" workforce:

People + Agents + Robots

Despite AI’s ability to automate 57% of tasks, the human element remains the competitive edge.
