If you write a manifesto about AI transformation and never once use the word “knowledge”… you might be missing what AI actually runs on.
If you write a manifesto about AI transformation and never once use the word "knowledge"… you might be missing what AI actually runs on.
McKinsey just published their AI Transformation Manifesto. 12 themes distilled from hundreds of large-scale AI transformations. This isn’t a think piece. It’s their declaration of what fundamentally matters when organizations transform with AI.
It’s worth reading. Here’s why.
Treating enterprise AI as an operating layer | MIT Technology Review
The organizations most likely to shape the enterprise AI era are those that can embed intelligence directly into operational platforms.
What if World Models and Quantum Computing complemented LLMs?
I envision a world where LLMs are complemented by many types of AI, Quantum computing and a convergence of new kinds of computing architectures. For all the book smarts of LLMs, they currently have little sense for how the real world works and there’s a growing list of “world model” AI startups trying to fill the gap. People won’t trust a one dimensional AI, more on this at the end.
Intent-Based Access Control(IBAC) for Coding Agents
Traditional access control was built for humans clicking through UIs. It doesn’t translate cleanly to natural language prompts issued to autonomous agents. “Clean up the old deployment” means something very different coming from a DevOps engineer versus an HR analyst — but the agent may execute the same destructive action either way.
We need a new layer: Intent-Based Access Control (IBAC).
Agents at the Ready? Yes and No…
Agentic AI capabilities are developing within several pace layers at once - economic, infrastructure, capability readiness, and knowledge engineering - and it is getting harder to stay on top of these developments whilst tracking their interdependence. But...
The 2026 AI Index Report | Stanford HAI
At Stanford HAI, we believe AI is poised to be the most transformative technology of the 21st century. But its benefits won’t be evenly distributed unless we guide its development thoughtfully. The AI Index offers one of the most comprehensive, data-driven views of artificial intelligence. Recognized as a trusted resource by global media, governments, and leading companies, the AI Index equips policymakers, business leaders, and the public with rigorous, objective insights into AI’s technical progress, economic influence, and societal impact.
