1 in 3 Workers Think Employers Aren’t Being Honest About AI
Hi Matthew, As employers increasingly embrace AI, many workers appear unconvinced they're getting the full picture.

For big companies, software like SAP and Salesforce is never really “finished.” Over the years, teams add thousands of company-specific rules, workarounds and customisations.

Timely Story - Addiction Recovery
Hi Matthew, As the U.S. continues to grapple with an addiction crisis, the conversation around treatment is shifting from simply getting someone through a crisis to helping them build a sustainable life in recovery.

EXCLUSIVE: Following Anthropic's AI agent warnings, Airrived launches the enterprise control plane to enforce AI guardrails
What happens when industry leaders warn that autonomous AI agents could fundamentally disrupt the internet within 6 to 12 months, but enterprises still lack the tools to see what those agents are actually doing? Following weekend headlines highlighting Anthropic’s urgent call for AI safety measures to catch up with agentic development, the industry consensus is clear: the race for autonomous AI requires immediate, robust guardrails. But how do enterprises actually enforce those guardrails when agents are reasoning and acting at machine speed? That is the critical governance gap Airrived is add

Passkeys don't help if the help desk can reset them - Sumsub Exec on new ID checks
Hi Matthew, Microsoft disclosed last week that attackers have been calling employees posing as IT support, talking them into "updating" their passkeys or MFA, and taking over their cloud accounts. It's the same weak point behind the M&S and MGM breaches: account recovery runs on a phone call, so stronger logins don't stop anyone who can get a reset. Andrew Novoselsky, Chief Product Officer at Sumsub, can talk about why the reset process has become the easiest way in, how deepfaked voices and faces are making it worse, and what companies should require before resetting anyone's access.

National Coffee Day that actually teaches you something
Hi Matthew, Most people drink one origin their whole life without knowing it. Their coffee says "dark roast" on the bag, maybe "100% Arabica," and that's the end of the information.

Fresh Roasted Coffee is using National Coffee Day to fix that: a three-day world tour, one growing region per day, 25% off each day with code COFFEEDAY — starting National Coffee Day and ending on International Co

Trade School Enrollment Is Surging. The "College Is the Only Path" Era May Be Over.
Hello, It’s long been stated that traditional universities were the default path given to high school graduates in planning their future. However, today that assumption is being tested. Skilled trade wages have climbed 30% since 2022, outpacing many white-collar entry-level roles. The shift raises a real question for families, educators and employers alike: is a four-year degree still the safest bet, or could trades now be the smarter economic choice?
