@ethicai_au Reverse Dunning-Kruger: the Aalto University study found the more AI literate you think you are, the worse you judge your own work. Not the exception to this. I’m the target demographic.

@guardian While the price of many consumer goods and groceries has increased, bananas are almost exactly the same price in UK shops as they were 40 years ago. In 1986, a kilogram of bananas cost £1.04 and in 2025, a kilogram cost £1.02. Accounting for inflation, that’s roughly a 74% price drop in today’s money. So why is the tropical fruit so resistant to inflation? Watch to find out and head to the link in bio for more in our It’s Complicated series.

@instituteofartandideas If everyone believes their own perceptions of the world resemble reality, we can’t all be right. So does this mean there is no reality at all? In this discussion, Avshalom Elitzur and Lera Boroditsky explore the intersections of science, language, and whether reality and truth are something which exist.

@johan.gronstedt The most repeated finding about Nokia's collapse is that people were afraid to speak up. Business schools teach it. Consultants built a decade of psychological-safety work on it. Alberto Torres ran corporate strategy inside Nokia through those years, and in this clip he tells a different story. Two weeks into the job, he lost an argument with Jorma Ollila and closed the CEO's door a little too hard. Ollila's response was to thank him. The company didn't have enough people slamming doors. Debate existed. Radical options were on the table. What was missing is in his last line. We have spent ten years teaching leadership teams to make disagreement safe. Almost nobody teaches the room what to do once everyone has disagreed. The truth got into the room. Then it attended meetings. #ThinkRoom @Grail.works #Leadership #Strategy #DecisionMaking @Alberto Torres
