Dear CFOs: Don’t Stop the Employees Consuming the Most AI Budget
Many companies are currently making the same mistake. As soon as an employee suddenly consumes €1,000 or more per month in AI tokens, a discussion about cost control immediately arises.

Lovable vs Claude Cowork: Which AI Tool is Better for Building Websites and Apps?

Why AI Agents Must Account for Human Behavior and Individual Differences
AI agents are rapidly taking an increasingly active role in decision-making. They advise customers, negotiate prices, plan resources, select candidates, and drive interactions. In many organizations, AI is shifting from analyzing to acting. But it is precisely here that a fundamental problem arises: many AI agents are designed as if they operate in a world of homogeneous users, people who react similarly to the same stimuli. That world simply does not exist.

Silicon Valley versus China: Two Futures of AI, and the Choice Facing the Netherlands
Following two intensive AI research trips-one to the United States, including Silicon Valley, and one to China-we are assessing the landscape. Two countries, two completely different approaches to artificial intelligence.
