    AI's Messy Reality: Live Coding, Physical Robots, and Data Integrity
    2026/05/15
    Jonathan Harris cuts through the AI fanfare this week, examining the practicalities of building intelligent systems. We look at the surprising value of live coding sessions for knowledge transfer and the real-world challenges of physical AI, from motors to maintenance. Plus, the unglamorous but crucial role of data governance and context management in making AI useful, and the quiet shift towards voice as a default developer tool. It’s about what actually works, not just what sounds good in a press release.

    Jonathan Harris cuts through Workflow Automation, AI Governance, and AI Costs in this 30-minute Turing’s Torch: Artificial Intelligence Weekly briefing. The point is not to cheer every announcement from the pavement. It is to work out what is useful, what is undercooked, and who carries the risk once the demo glow wears off. Expect plain-English context on power, money, data, labour and control, with the usual vendor fireworks left outside where they belong.
