If anyone wants to know my views on Philippine politics and culture, read Nick Joaquin's "A Portrait of the Artist as Filipino" and its adaptation on stage and on film, "Ang Larawan." It's one of the most moving works of art I've ever encountered. I recall reading it out of

When Gen AI rose to prominence, reactions split into 3 camps: 🟦 “It’s overhyped.” 🟥 “It’s dangerous.” 🟩 “It’s AGI already.” Apple just published a paper that tackles the third camp head-on... and it’s a sobering read. 👇 futurism.com/apple-damning-… Their top researchers tested

Spoke with Stanley Palisada on ANC about where AI really stands in the Philippines. tl;dr... we're still stuck in talk mode, not build mode. 🧵 Year 3 of the AI hype cycle, and it's clear: the buzzword has staying power. But hype without infrastructure, skills, or rules? That’s

🧵 The obsession with “learning Power BI” or “studying Python” among career-shifters isn’t a skills issue... it's a systemic blind spot in how we frame jobs in data and AI.🧵 In a deep convo with PowerBI Pilipinas’ Anthony Cua, we discussed how workers flock to tools thinking

🧵 A short story about skilling, higher education reform, and real nation-building... featuring Art Patungan. Art didn’t just teach data science. He built a degree program from scratch... and challenged the way universities, teachers, and the government think about skills. In

🧵 The Builder.ai story isn’t just about AI hype... it’s a textbook case of viral disinformation in tech. Here’s how a false claim that “700 engineers faked AI” became global “fact”... and why it matters for politics, media, and society 👇 In May 2025, outlets from

When formatting charts was a compelling ad. This 1990s Microsoft Excel ad is a fascinating look back at the early days of business software. For business leaders and in-house trainers, it’s a reminder of how foundational tools like Excel have shaped our approach to data

🧵Excel changed the world. AI might too. But it won't be easy... just ask Joey Gurango. He worked at Apple when it had <5,000 people. His job? Hardware support. But one prof’s handwritten note during a FORTRAN exam... “Have you ever considered a career in software?”... shifted

📌 Why Deepfakes Should Be a Top Policy Priority in 2025 🧵 Had a strong discussion on #Deepfakes with Pinky Webb... and the risks are far deeper than many realize. From political warfare to gendered abuse, we’re staring down an AI-fueled crisis of trust. Here’s what

Spoke w/ Ruth Cabal about deepfakes... and what it means for politics is terrifying. A 🧵 on why reacting to “signs” of fakes is a trap, and what the real threat is 👇 Deepfakes are no longer clunky tech demos. With just a phone, anyone can generate realistic, animated fake
