Quiet Cracking Fuels Debate on AI’s Role in Mental Health
“Quiet cracking” is the unspoken burnout—employees showing up but slowly breaking inside. Some are leaning on AI tools for empathy or stress relief when human help isn't an option. But experts warn: low-cost AI comfort might soothe in the short term—but it's no substitute for real therapists, and it could even backfire.
The Secret to Success in the AI Age: Broadening Yourself
Narrow LinkedIn pitches and one-note job titles? Totally overrated. This article drops a fresh take: embrace “transilience” and become a richer, multi-faceted version of yourself. Like, if AI can write your first draft, your value isn’t penning words—it’s reading context, interpreting nuance, and being a human translator for tech.

MIT Finds 95% of Generative AI Pilots at Companies Are Failing
Turns out most companies experimenting with generative AI aren’t hitting the mark—95% of pilot projects flop, not ’cause the AI sucks, but because firms barely have the strategy or infrastructure to scale it. Basically, building cool tech is one thing—making it work at scale is a whole other vibe.
Paper Résumés, Trick Questions & In-Person Interviews: Hiring Is Going Old-School to Escape AI Slop
Companies are hitting reverse on AI-heavy hiring. People like Tyler got jobs simply by walking in with a paper résumé. Now, recruiters are dusting off trick questions, cover letters, offline skills tests, and even flying candidates in—because face-to-face still beats impersonating bots any day.
