    The Green Tick That Lied
    Jul 22 2026
    This week, the verdict on the expensive AI I switched off: the free engine wins, though not for the reason I hoped. A machine of mine that reported success every night for a week while doing nothing at all, and what it taught me about trusting a green tick. One idea from the book on the confident fool that can never say "I don't know." Plus the week's AI news, checked before it's aired.

    The AI I Switched Off
    Jul 10 2026
    This week I switched off an artificial intelligence. An expensive one, about a hundred pounds a month, and the app it was meant to be promoting may be doing better without it. A build log from Utter List, one idea from the book, and the week's AI news that actually matters, checked before it's aired. Chapters: 00:00 Cold open 00:53 Intro 01:31 Build Log, Utter List 05:09 The Bookshelf 07:28 AI News (verified) 10:43 Outro AI-voice disclosure: Narrated with an AI-generated clone of Peter's own voice.
