AI in Workplace

Remember that phase when every empty box became a spacespace? Last Tuesday, mine became a ‘smart robot’ with googly eyes and a cereal box microphone. ‘Daddy, it knows ALL the animal sounds!’ she declared, pressing button-drawn crayon circles. As rain tapped our balcony windows, I realized—her generation won’t just use AI like tools. They’ll play […]

Remember that toy which glittered like a disco ball but broke after two uses? The one our kids abandoned faster than last week’s broccoli? I thought about that cheap plastic marvel recently while reading about something called ‘workslop’ – those dazzling yet hollow AI creations clogging workplaces. Then I glanced at my daughter’s latest ‘AI-assisted’

You know those mornings when the rain taps gently against the window like tiny questions you haven’t answered yet?

You know that feeling when you open an email and something just doesn’t sit right? It’s polished, it’s professional, but it’s missing… soul. Well, researchers now have a word for it: workslop. And honestly, it’s everywhere—not just in our inboxes, but in how we talk about tech with our kids. On mornings like this, when

But lately, I’ve been thinking about how the world’s rhythm is changing too,

You know that moment at the neighborhood playground? When your child stands frozen at the swing’s midpoint – one hand clutching the chain’s familiar links, the other reaching toward the dizzying heights? My daughter—now in Grade 2—skips the 100-meter walk to school each morning, reminding me that life’s pivotal moments happen just a few steps

How My Daughter’s Bike Ride Taught Me About AI Training You know that moment when you first let go of the bike seat? When your child wobbles forward on their own, equal parts determination and sheer terror in their eyes? I had that same heart-in-throat feeling last week watching my seven-year-old—just two blocks from her
