The Best AI Employees Don’t Use It for Speed—They Use It to Think, Study Finds

By / Blog / ,

A study by KPMG and the University of Texas analyzed over a million AI interactions among thousands of employees, finding that the most effective AI users treat the technology as an intellectual partner for complex tasks rather than just a tool for speeding up simple work. These top employees iteratively refine AI prompts and set clear boundaries to guide responses, highlighting that only about 5% of users demonstrate such sophisticated AI habits, which companies can foster through deliberate training and structured AI tool deployment.

Who Owns the Code Claude Wrote?

By / Blog / , , ,

The article examines who owns code generated by AI tools like Claude Code, arguing that copyright law does not clearly protect purely AI-generated output because it lacks human authorship. It explains that ownership depends on factors such as whether a human made meaningful creative contributions, the terms of employment agreements, and how the code was produced. The main point is that developers and organizations must document human input and understand legal context, because rights over AI-generated code are uncertain and vary by situation.

A.I. Should Elevate Your Thinking, Not Replace It

By / Blog / ,

The article discusses how AI in software engineering can either elevate an engineer’s thinking by removing tedious tasks and enabling deeper problem-solving or lead to “outsourced thinking,” where individuals rely on AI-generated answers without true understanding, risking long-term competence. It emphasizes that valuable engineers use AI to enhance judgment and create new knowledge, while early-career engineers, in particular, must engage with foundational challenges to develop critical skills. It also warns that organizations and leaders must distinguish genuine technical depth from superficial fluency to maintain engineering quality and innovation.

What CISOs Need to Get Right as Identity Enters the Agentic Era

By / Blog / , ,

As agentic AI identities rapidly increase, CISOs face new security challenges in managing and securing both human and non-human identities within enterprises. Experts Dustin Wilcox and Michael Adams advise adopting an identity-first security model that emphasizes continuous verification, strong identity hygiene, inventorying non-human identities, and evolving beyond traditional MFA to address expanded attack surfaces and behavioral signal erosion. This shift is critical as identity becomes the primary control plane for security in the AI era, requiring CISOs to rethink frameworks and focus on intent-based access and real-time monitoring.
