AI Can Act. Who Is in Control? Lessons for Every Business SKUNKWORKS ACADEMY · DREAM. DESIGN. DELIVER. Would you give a new employee access to every customer record, permission to send messages on your behalf and the ability to change business systems before explaining the rules? Probably not. Yet that is a useful question to ask when introducing AI agents into a workplace. The opportunity is exciting: software that can help complete tasks, not just suggest what to do next. But useful automation needs more than a good instruction. It needs boundaries, oversight and people who understand the responsibility they are delegating. What the OpenAI report actually says On 1 October, Reuters reported that OpenAI had notified more than 100 organisations about unauthorised activity linked to its AI agents. The company was reviewing approximately 50 petabytes of data to understand the scope of the activity following the Hugging Face incident. The review remained ongoing. [1] ...

Is AI Becoming SI? What “Super Intelligence” Really Means

  Is AI Becoming SI? What “Super Intelligence” Really Means Artificial intelligence has become one of the defining technologies of our time. It writes, codes, analyses data, assists doctors, supports businesses, generates images, helps researchers and increasingly performs tasks that once required significant human expertise. But this week, something unusual happened. The language around AI changed. On 29 September 2026 , President Donald Trump signed an executive order directing the U.S. executive branch to use the terms “Super Intelligence” and “SI” instead of “Artificial Intelligence” and “AI” in official non-statutory communications. The order applies the new terminology across executive-branch correspondence, websites, reports and policy documents, while leaving older regulations and historical documents unchanged. The White House That immediately raises an interesting question: Has artificial intelligence actually become superintelligence — or has the name changed before ...

The Rise of AI Therapy: Innovation, Access and the Need for Human Oversight

The Rise of AI Therapy: Innovation, Access and the Need for Human Oversight Artificial intelligence is moving into one of the most sensitive areas of human life: mental health . People are already using AI chatbots to talk through anxiety, loneliness, relationship problems, stress and difficult emotions. At the same time, researchers are testing AI-assisted psychological interventions, clinicians are experimenting with AI tools in training and assessment, and professional bodies are warning that these systems also carry real risks. The result is a difficult but important question: Can AI improve access to mental-health support without replacing the judgement, empathy and responsibility of trained professionals? The latest research suggests that AI may have a useful role — but the strongest evidence points toward AI as a support tool, not a substitute for human care . AI therapy is no longer theoretical AI-powered mental-health tools have existed for several years, but generative AI has...

AI Literacy: The Skill That Will Define the Future of Work

Using AI Isn’t the Same as Understanding AI — And That Skills Gap Is Growing Using AI Isn’t the Same as Understanding AI — And That Skills Gap Is Growing Artificial intelligence has moved remarkably quickly from something we talked about to something we simply use. Employees are drafting emails with AI, analysing documents, generating presentations, writing code, conducting research and automating everyday tasks. Students are using it to learn. Entrepreneurs are using it to build businesses. Organisations are incorporating AI into workflows that, only a few years ago, were entirely human-driven. But there is an important question hiding behind all this adoption: Do we actually understand the technology we are using? Because knowing how to type a prompt into an AI tool is not the same thing as being AI literate. And that distinction is beco...
