Thank you @santanderuk and thank you to the team at the AI Hub for a successful first AI masterclass.

We intend to sustain this as an ongoing activity and we are going to be announcing other next dates very soon

[Anthony Baafi @MrTonyBaafi]

Tomorrow is the day! 🚀

Winning in the AI Economy brings together business leaders, entrepreneurs and AI experts for practical conversations about using AI to grow, save time and work smarter.

Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow!

[Anthony Baafi @MrTonyBaafi]

According to a recent NVIDIA presentation, AI is increasingly helping design, test and improve other AI systems.
That could accelerate AI development, make complex problems easier to solve, create more specialised AI, and push human value further towards judgement & context

[Anthony Baafi @MrTonyBaafi]

AI use in education is moving faster than the systems around it

76% of teachers now use AI, yet 49% of schools have no AI policy and 66% have no policy for students

The challenge is not stopping AI use. It is designing learning so AI supports thinking rather than replaces it

[Anthony Baafi @MrTonyBaafi]

The AI economy is shifting where human value is created.

For years, careers rewarded execution

Tomorrow they'll reward judgement, adaptability and the ability to direct AI towards the right outcome

The people who thrive won't compete with AI. They'll know how to work with it.

33 councils. 30 days. One mission

I’m visiting London boroughs to start a conversation about how housing teams can improve visibility, spot issues & reduce delivery costs

So far: @EalingCouncil, @RedbridgeLive & @wfcouncil

https://t.co/VU4zkvgNBp is built to support that work.

@OpenAI new memory system in ChatGPT is out

[Anthony Baafi @MrTonyBaafi]

I’ll be speaking at the SIRM College Job Expo 2026 on The Future of Work.

We’ll talk about what AI is changing, the skills that will matter most, and how students can prepare with more confidence for the opportunities ahead.

Join us If you’re a student, parent or educator.

Dont Fear AI, Shape It

[Anthony Baafi @MrTonyBaafi]

One insight from the World Economic Forum:

AI isn't the transformation.

The transformation happens before AI—redesigning how the organisation works.

Growth first. AI second.

That's the difference between implementing AI and creating value from AI.

[Anthony Baafi @MrTonyBaafi]

Agree?

[Anthony Baafi @MrTonyBaafi]

The most expensive AI mistake isn't choosing the wrong model.

It's solving the wrong problem.

AI transformation shouldn't start with buying another tool.

It should start with understanding your organisation.

[Anthony Baafi @MrTonyBaafi]

An Enterprise AI Operating System is:
The collection of workflows, governance, data, decision rights, workforce capabilities, and performance measures that determine how humans and AI work together every day

How to learn AI....

[Anthony Baafi @MrTonyBaafi]

If Andy Burnham succeeds him, Britain will have had 7 Prime Ministers in roughly 10 years.

At this point, the story isn't Keir Starmer.

The story is how difficult leadership has become. The shelf life of leadership appears to be getting shorter.

[Bloomberg @business]

Keir Starmer resigns as UK prime minister in an emotional speech at Downing Street, saying his successor will take over by September https://t.co/SD87uJop2W

[Anthony Baafi @MrTonyBaafi]

Building AI agents is becoming easier.

The real challenge is building the framework to implement AI successfully and the operating system to derive value from it.

Strategy. Data. Governance. Security. Change management. Workforce capability. Accountability.

[Anthony Baafi @MrTonyBaafi]

One thing I learned working in payments at Monzo is that as systems scale, coordination becomes more important than capability.

The challenge is how thousands of events, systems, decisions, and dependencies work together in real time.

Agentic AI is heading in the same direction
