It is bug-congrats me as I'm absolutely flabbergasted that not only have I passed four thousand stars, I caught it on 4004 (lots of stars not found) 

I was a bit stunned to find no definition of AI in the glossary. We have AI deception, AI evals, AI test agent, AI testing, AI vampire, but just plain old AI was missing. So, I've fixed it. AI Arti...

Artificial Intelligence is the broad science of making computers mimic human decision-making and problem-solving. It is a nested family of technologies. At the outer edge, you have general AI. Inside that, you find machine learning, where systems learn from patterns in data. At the very centre, you have deep learning. It tries to mimic the human brain using neural networks. AI is a powerful tool, but it is not a replacement for human thinking, nor is it ever likely to be. It is brilliant at finding patterns in mountains of data, giving simple answers to complex questions (context depending, of course), but it lacks common sense and empathy. Our job is to bridge that gap, ensuring that AI is safe and reliable. 

On a beautiful morning you have time to go for a walk along the canal and have some brunch with your wife. 

We love a good TWiQ episode that celebrates the wins. And in today's episode we did just that. So here goes, we celebrated the following wins... Diana Dromey ran her first ever 10k, goin...

A celebratory 'wins' episode full of community milestones, personal breakthroughs, bug catches, career confidence, and the many small moments that keep the MoTaverse moving.

Default thinking is the natural, preferred approach for a tester when they look at a problem. It is the familiar path the mind takes based on its knowledge and experience. Everyone has their own starting point that feels comfortable. Whatever it is, it is just the first step of thinking. Default thinking is not wrong. It is a habit, shaped by experience, that develops over time. The important part is recognising that this first step is only the beginning of thinking. Testing becomes deeper when you think from different perspectives. Once you pass your starting point, you can choose to explore in other ways. There are many mindsets to learn, and you can strengthen your thinking with practice. The aim is not to remove the natural tendency. It is to expand it. When you understand your default, you can use it as a starting point rather than a place to stay. This gives you the freedom to choose the mindsets that best fit the problem.
