CEOs and the Magic Mitten of Hallucinations

Martyn Rhisiart Jones

Oza-Cesuras, 4/12/2025

CEOs are panicking. Again. They’re not worried about a recession. It’s not a hostile takeover. It’s not even the GDPR lurking in their inbox like a passive-aggressive ghost. They’re panicking because of AI. Yes, apparently there’s a talent gap. A yawning, gaping chasm of human inadequacy between what exists and what robots can do. Only the CEOs are brave. Some may even be desperate. They are the only ones who stare into it without blinking or vomiting on the nearest whiteboard.

When you have read this, if indeed you read it all, will I have failed to convey the essence of what I am trying to get at? Will a confusion of entropy win the battle? Will the wheel of fortune turn in my favour, or will I fail to connect and communicate effectively?

Let’s give it a spin and see what happens. Continue reading →

The management and architecture of Information Assets

For more than two decades I have tried to convey the importance of treating information and knowledge as potential assets.

Around the world, the response has usually been mixed.

“It’s not enough to give signals.” – Enzo Cucchi

I wanted to call this piece ‘A random drive down Camino Real’.

Steve Jobs was a great entrepreneur.

Clearly, he was.

I work in business and IT.
