Every company is a software company, just some haven't realised it yet. The only thing I would add to the great advice already here is start off very small, and get this tiny feature being used by the company as soon as possible and th

In the UK you can spread bet on the market and stocks, i.e. Trading 212, otherwise any share broker should also be able to do it (probably at higher cost).

I always wonder about why infrastructure like rail isn’t delivered in a much more agile way. You could easily have useful stretches of rail working around the north of England by now, proving out the technology and adding and upgrading stat

One way is to make sure the hardware team does certain things to support easy transition to new architectures, we have seen this with Apple Silicon for example!

I find it so funny how kind and socialist the government is towards the rich. If there was a person who wasn't part of the elite networks who are allowed to run companies like Boeing had built something criminally unsafe, you can guara

Is there any way to short Open AI and this nonsense that AGI is round the corner? They might prove to be useful to some degree (niche areas) but as soon as I give the LLMs information or problems they haven't seen before they completel

I don’t buy this argument at all, if someone is abducting children taking their phone away will be an absolutely trivial first step. I know this might shock you be there was a time before phones and everything was totally okay.

I’m not convinced there isn’t a pretty defined ceiling on how clever LLMs can get using current algorithms and hardware.. this isn’t how we think and they all still fall apart on most reasoning tasks. If they haven’t seen lots of examples o
