The Generational Impact Generative AI Could Have on Work
For years and maybe even decades, technology experts and think-tanks have been warning us of the impact of automation and AI on work, skills and jobs. McKinsey, in its 2017 report on the Future of Work, which I had written about and shared on my blog in 2019, had indicated what kinds of jobs and… Continue reading The Generational Impact Generative AI Could Have on Work
Airlines as Image-Builders of Countries
In my previous blog post, I had written about airlines as world connectors, providing an important economic and cultural link between countries and their people.

Why the US-China Eco-Tech War is Dangerous for the Global Economy
The current semiconductor competition between US and China is fast threatening to morph into a larger Cold War of the 21st Century as I have written before on my blog. It is part of the continuation of the Trump-era tariff and trade wars that the two superpowers engaged in, in a tit-for-tat raising of tariffs… Continue reading Why the US-China Eco-Tech War is Dangerous for the Global Economy
