The February Gurteen Knowledge Letter is out. I look ahead to the year, reflect on Conversational Leadership, the limits of KM, the use of generative AI with care, & touch on griefbots and memorybots.

I'm running Zoom-based Knowledge Cafés on Conversational Leadership. February introduces the practice and why it matters. March covers designing and hosting your own Cafés. conversational-leadership.net/events-future/ #km #kmers #knowledgemanagement

This article argues that AI safety based on “human values” is risky since values shift, conflict, and aren’t always good; better models of motivation or capability limits may be safer.

The latest issue of my Knowledge Letter is out. It touches on themes I often revisit: how we communicate with one another, how we think, and how we lead without trying to control. I welcome feedback.
