Healthy organizations don’t cling to ego or inefficiency. If your presence adds more friction than value, they’ll adapt—with or without you. Culture is strategy in motion.

I asked ChatGPT to make a cheat sheet for Blackwell chips—because of course the “G” in GB300 doesn’t stand for Grace. Coming out of #DellTechWorld, I realized I’d completely overlooked the GB300.

1/🧵SAP Sapphire 2025 Recap: "Uncertainty is the problem. Everywhere." — SAP CEO Christian Klein, on stage in Orlando. Then he gave an answer: Flywheels of enterprise apps, semantically rich data, and agentic AI. Let’s break down what IT leaders need to know. #SAPSapphire #CIO

One of my go-to AI hacks: Analyst Relations sends my meeting schedule in a Word doc. Instead of manually copying into my calendar, I drop it into an LLM to generate an ICS file. Instant calendar import. It’s like Zapier for humans—with fewer API keys.

Using AI as a fact check engine is not the way.

AI agent sprawl is starting to feel like Lotus Notes all over again—every team building their own, few with lifecycle oversight. Yes, A2A (Agent-to-Agent) solves communication. But sprawl isn’t just about talking. It’s about purpose, governance, and scale. Are we repeating old

Built a Flask app to rate tech articles with AI — and hit an unexpected wall. The value wasn’t in the frontend, but React forced me to rearchitect my backend just to look modern. Flask and Python handled scale fine — until complexity crept in. 👉 CTOs: Are you scaling tech or

A constant battle between me and ChaGPT - Is this image the size I requested?

I vibe-coded a working app in days. Then I tried to take it to production—and hit a wall. You can vibe code your way to insight. But you can’t vibe code your way to scale. And that’s okay. 👇🏽 The full story: linkedin.com/pulse/you-cant…

I spent a good amount of time with @GoogleCloud AI Studio last night. It was exceptional at getting me to mockup for the front end. I was able to get there in about an hour. It has the potential of being the Cursor of the cloud providers. cc Richard Seroter Bobby Allen

“Keith, your passions outside of tech might alienate half your audience.” Maybe. But I’m not here to perform a role. I’m here as a whole person. My work doesn’t shape who I am — who I am shapes my work. And I’m OK with that.

Super frustrating experience with Google Studio AI: GSA: Keith, let's refactor your app for Firebase. Make the following changes to the following files. Me: You are my vibe coding IDE, why are you asking me to make the changes? GSA: You are absolutely right Keith. 100% my

Been exploring @GoogleCloud AI Studio with Gemini as the code assistant. Lots of potential here—but I’ve noticed a challenge worth sharing. Gemini sometimes loses context inside the broader AI Studio environment. After a while, it can’t always tell if input is coming from me or

I've spent the whole morning writing—my version of a day off. My challenge is that my work is also, more or less, my hobby. I have to say, this piece is pretty substantial.

A few months ago, I built an AI-powered tool to help me track enterprise tech signals. I’m not a full-stack developer. I didn’t have time to learn Kubernetes or build an auth system. And yet, with AI APIs, Firebase, and a bit of Python, I went from “this is impossible” to “this
