It talks more depth about AI, why it is necessary, how sustainability can be maintained & how it has to be used & compliance & governance can be maintained.
By Arnaud BOUE on 6/19/2026
As AI goes fast , the content published and documented in 2024 seems out dated on some aspects to my point of view More generally, I found it not enough agnostic of US businesses and other economic dynamics (might be correlated to my 1st point though). Europe has pretty powerful and growing AI solutions which aim to embrace a more ethical approach. this are even not mentionned. I also face difficulties in hearing that AI can be seen and used as a mentor especially when this statement is made just before the fact that AI outcome requires a step back and a human check to avoid misinformation, misinterpretation and to spot hallucinations. I would also add that seeing AI as a potential motivational support rimes to me like relying on something which is not embodied by the human being which seeks for this support. Experience and personal path made me witnessing repeatedly the approach relying on an outside source leads to dependency as best (no interest to promote then if the goal is to build strong brain capacity vs transactional human machines). This chapter conveys to my point of view a totally immature message which is a major issue when it falls into a ww training
