If AGI is tested only on digital work, it will pass while remaining hollow. Intelligence without embodied experience is too narrow to be truly general. A better test is whether an AI agent can teleoperate robots across the physical world as well as a human.

It’s been a turbulent few days for public markets and for relations between Anthropic and the US Department of War. Flying through that turbulence, I had two very different airport  accessibility experiences.

As AI agents increasingly use the web on our behalf, accessibility and commercial incentives may finally align. WebMCP could transform websites from pixel puzzles into structured tools — a quiet shift that could transform web accessibility for blind users.

Airports are stressful for everyone, but for blind travellers they can become a labyrinth of broken processes, awkward rules, and misplaced “assistance.” A personal account of how accessibility often fails in physical spaces—and why better design still matters.

AI coding tools have become astonishingly powerful in the past 3 months — but power without discipline is dangerous. As vibe coding spreads, the real differentiator isn't prompting skill but engineering judgement: specification, testing, and keeping garbage out of complex systems.

A social network for AI agents sounds like a quirky experiment—until you look closely. Moltbook reveals how open-source agents, granted real access to our data, could turn curiosity, speed and convenience into serious personal, corporate and societal risk.

“Doing sensible things is good. Inciting many other people to do sensible things is better” – Eben Upton, CEO of Raspberry Pi. Here are just 3 examples of that ethos in action last week.

Captchas aimed to block bots from scraping sites and creating fake accounts. Now bots outperform humans at them, while legitimate agents make blocking pointless. Vision-impaired users suffer as collateral damage—but new techniques may fix this.

More musings on the tricky question of subjective experience and the impossibility of distinguishing mimickry from true consciousness.
