Smart orgs don’t chase models.They build decision systems.

This is a quote from Adam DeJans Jr. It is right to the point and should be shown completely: “Most AI systems can tell you what happened. Very few can tell you why. And almost none can tell you what to do next.

Yet we keep handing over high-stakes decisions (hiring, sentencing, pricing, credit scoring) to algorithms built to detect patterns, not understand them.

Here’s the problem:

AI is great at perception (seeing, hearing, translating), but in prediction tasks involving humans, the cracks start to show.

What people forget is that:
→ Accuracy ≠ value
→ A forecast ≠ a decision
→ Probabilities ≠ understanding
→ Correlation ≠ causation

If you’re using AI to replace judgment rather than support it, you’re not modern, you’re reckless.

Smart orgs don’t chase models. They build decision systems.

AI Aphorisms

Bruno Levy decided to share short sentences related to the conditions of possibility for AI reasoning and human-AI collaboration. Here is his first aphorism:

True reasoning is not a function of knowing everything, but a function of being structurally immune to believing the wrong thing.” Link

AI ethics: Your face is not public domain

According to this LinkedIn post, “Denmark is about to make that official. Under a new amendment to the copyright law, the Danish government will give people the legal right to their own voice, face, and body – even when they’re digitally reproduced by generative AI. A deepfake of you will no longer be “just pixels.” It will be your protected identity.Link

Challenge July-2025 “Rules with Regular Expressions”

This challenge gives vendors of different rules-based tools an opportunity to demonstrate how they handle business rules with regular expressions. They need to implement business rules such as below:

  • If the Degree Code is “MA Single” and the Course Code is similar to MA52# or MA62#, where # stands for any single character, add this course to the list of allowed courses.
  • If the Degree Code is not “CS%” and the Course Code is similar to CS%288% or CS%289%, where % stands for any combination of characters, add this course to the list of not allowed courses. Link

Decision-Making Under Uncertainty

Uncertainty is the environment in which our decision models frequently operate. What drives real decisions under real uncertainty? Adam DeJans Jr. unpacks why most “optimization” efforts fail under real-world uncertainty in the 5-part mini-series:

Optimization under uncertainty needs to be embedded within your business as a living system. Its success is measured not by solver convergence or benchmark accuracy, but by decisions that consistently align operational realities with financial objectives under real-world volatility.

Anthropic Copyright Ruling May Spur More AI Licensing Deals

The first federal court decision on the fairness of taking copyrighted material to train generative artificial intelligence is a mixed outcome for tech companies and content creators that could prompt both parties to seek coexistence, according to attorneys, with the judge concluding that while the technology is “spectacularly” transformative, using pirated material is inexcusable.

Rodney Brooks’s 1988 article “Al: great expectations”

He just posted on LinkedIn: “Every so often a new AI development comes along and great excitement ensues as people stumble over themselves convinced that the key to intelligence has been unlocked.” Me writing about AI overhype 37+ years ago. Old dogs, old tricks. Yes, I did look like that. https://lnkd.in/gXMr5ERn
