Running a root cause analysis only addresses half of the problem. Instead of asking, why did we miss this. Ask, why didn’t we think of this?  Fixing a process or writing a missing automat...

I often pop my writing into an AI checker to sense-check it and identify anything that might sound too much away from my style. I use Grammarly, and while I reject approx 50% of its suggestions, it...

An excerpt from LinkedIn from my conversation with the How to test this podcast.  How to test this podcast clip about keyboard accessibility testing 

If you’re using social media, you’re probably using hashtags. If you’re using hashtags, you’re probably using multiple words. If you’re using multiple words, you’re probably putting them in a strin...

I watched a program, and someone said, 'think outside the box'. It is a common saying, and I'm willing to make an assumption that lots of you reading this will have heard of it. Generally, it means...

I've created a basic visual for my mindsets model, which will be part of my book, if I ever get it done. I'm after some initial feedback on what folks think. This is handcrafted in Slides, so no AI...

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.
