It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

One of the better things you can do to protect your money spent on electronics devices is have a good surge protector and battery backup. If you’re like me, you only buy the kind where you can disable the audible alarms. The problem with this is now you might not get any warning if the battery goes bad. In some cases you’ll have the battery backup connected to a computer via USB and receive notices that way.

Earlier this month I complained here about how Outlook online in Office 365 had a weird option to "Empty Folder" and what a huge UX fail that was. I am here to report that Microsoft and Office 365 listened and made it better! Now instead of "Empty folder" (which was very confusing and did not even have a confirmation, cancellation, or undo), the option says "Delete all".

Geopolitical risk is now at the top of the agenda for CEOs. But tracking it can be difficult.

Geopolitically, however, it is becoming increasingly fragmented – threatening the operations, financial well-being, and security of globally connected companies.

The first step in a successful Customer Experience endeavor (or for that matter, any business proposition) is to find out what’s wrong. If you can’t identify it, you can’t fix it! 💡 That’s where the Voice of the Customer (VoC) comes in. Today, far too many brands do VoC simply because that’s what they think they’re supposed to do; that’s what all their competitors do.

Some of the key hallmarks of small businesses are their entrepreneurship, their adaptability, and their nimbleness. Often times, these important characteristics lead owners and managers to decide that a traditional performance review process doesn’t fit with their small business’ culture. After all, the standard model of performance reviews can seem archaic and more well-suited to regimented large corporations rather than flexible small businesses.
