Google's hardware division didn't have a particularly strong 2025, releasing new phones that didn't really stand out as particularly innovative. That's not the best strategy in any market, but it's particularly damaging in those outside the US where more makers are present. And, sure, Google isn't primarily a hardware company, but it makes phones, earbuds, and smartwatches every year and fails to make a meaningful market impact against the likes... Read more ›

One of my favorite books is Larissa MacFarquhar’s Strangers Drowning: Impossible Idealism, Drastic Choices, and the Urge to Help.

OpenAI, the company deploying one of the most widely used AI agents, confirmed publicly... Read more ›

For the past year, enterprise decision-makers have faced a rigid architectural trade-off in voice AI: adopt a "Native" speech-to-speech (S2S) model for speed and emotional fidelity, or stick with a "Modular" stack for control and auditability. That binary choice has evolved into distinct market segmentation, driven by two simultaneous forces reshaping the landscape.What was once a performance decision has become a governance and compliance decision, as voice agents move from...
