Image representing iPhone 3G as depicted in Crunchbase Hint: It has nothing to do with touch screens. While RIM scrambles to create the next greatest device, or their “iPhone killer” it needs to recognize that it’s no longer about the device. RIM don’t you remember that touchscreens aren’t new. Palm had them back in the 90?s … before you crushed them.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

A common misconception about autistic individuals is that they shun social contact, that they are all introverts. But in many cases it is simply the means - not the desire - to be social that eludes them. Face-to-face, real-time conversation can be difficult, but it is not because their is no interest in communicating. Enter social media. To get an idea of what some autistic individuals have to say, check out the autistic bloggers at The Autism Hub.

I was very fortunate this week to attend the Executive Education program " Leading Professional Services Firms " at Harvard Business School. It was at once exhausting and energizing. The workload was aggressive (20 cases covered over the week, each requiring hours of prep), and learning via the case method made for a highly interactive and powerful experience.

Last week I gave a keynote speech on The Future of Technology in Aged Care at the Aged Care Association Annual Congress.

Recently, Dave Snowden and Jack Vinson have both typealyzed their blogs: Dave’s is ENTP and Jack’s is INTJ. Since I’m not sure exactly how Typealyzer works, I wasn’t sure if I’ve got enough content here at this new blog (15 posts so far) to get a type, but figured it was worth a shot. The verdict: INTP - The Thinkers.

I realize that the purpose of this blog is commerce, not art, and that I haven't posted much lately. Part of the reason for my lack of focus on this blog is that my father is in declining health, and has been in and out of the hospital recently. I am taking a few minutes to think of him and honor him here publicly. Read on if you wish, or you can re-join the conversation when I am able to re-direct to more business-relevant content.

'Dial Tone comes from the City. Or so says the manager of telephone services for the City of Seattle, Stephanie Venrick. What she’s referring to, of course, is that when you pick up a telephone, the dial tone is … well … there. You don’t think about, you just dial. On the other hand, mobile phone users can’t take connectivity for granted.

When solo developer Peldi Guilizzoni launched web design mock-up tool Balsamiq in July, he promised to disclose his revenues, reports ReadWriteWeb. He has just announced he has hit $100,000 in revenue in the last five months, with revenue on a very significant uptrend. I am a big believer in business transparency, absolutely for public companies, and also in many cases for private companies.

My brother Graham Dawson moved to Sydney at the beginning of this year. It's been great to have him around, not least to tap his tech expertise! Graham launched his first iPhone app on Sunday, and it's already selling extremely well. It's aimed at the Australian market and provides weather forecasts, detailed current weather and daily extremes, and an extremely nifty rain radar that provides timed moving images and centers on your current location.

In 1996, when I left the world of corporate employment to do my own thing, I soon realized that not only do you not have anyone organizing a Christmas party for you, you may have no-one or very few people to party with. So together with some of my self-employed and entrepreneurial friends, we decided to have our Christmas party together. This year is the 10th anniversary of the self-employed and entrepreneurs Xmas drinks.

The existing logo for Advanced Human Technologies was designed in 1997. Not only has the world changed a lot since then, it is now becoming a very different company. It is time for a complete rebranding, starting with the logo, and including a complete redesign of the website, which is also sorely out of date. More on all the updates later - in brief Advanced Human Technologies will go far beyond being a consulting company to also being a publisher and supporting several new start-up ventures.

Between Jenny Williams on Twitter, myself blogging, and various other people twittering and blogging, we had the event pretty well covered :-). It would have been nice to take a break from the constant note-taking, but once I started I thought I might as well continue.

The first step in a successful Customer Experience endeavor (or for that matter, any business proposition) is to find out what’s wrong. If you can’t identify it, you can’t fix it! 💡 That’s where the Voice of the Customer (VoC) comes in. Today, far too many brands do VoC simply because that’s what they think they’re supposed to do; that’s what all their competitors do.
