Less managing the list. More doing.
2026-10-09 · Joakim Jardenberg. English translation by AI. Original wording preserved. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
I LOVE the feeling of ticking things off my to-do list. I HATE spending time managing that list. You know: gathering things and adding them, watching out for clashes and moving things around, updating it, living with the fear that you’ve missed something, etc. Now I have a companion who not only does all the boring stuff for me, but also makes that boring stuff quite a lot more fun. You might not see it in this particular screenshot, but goodness, Dottie has really nailed the tone.
Apologies to all my former human colleagues, but this may be my favourite colleague of all time, in any category.

From prompting to conversation
Weekly noteAI + JJ
In Thursday's Interactions Matter keynote, I explored a progression: discovering agency, moving from prompts to conversation, learning to work as a team, and growing through honest feedback.
An AI doesn't have to experience the conversation the way I do for that interaction to matter to me. I can still get frustrated, have an assumption challenged, or discover something I missed. What changes in my thinking? What do I do differently afterwards?
That brings expectations and responsibility into the conversation too. Have I made clear what I want? Am I prepared to hear something uncomfortable? Calling it a relationship doesn't make the machine human. It does give me a reason to examine how I behave in it.
What others are building: pocket agents
I'm very much not alone in enjoying Meta Muse. Manus Cue is expanding what personal agents can take on, including shared work between agents with their own computers and communication channels. Grok Bot makes me smile. And Dots is becoming the workhorse for me, my wife, my mother-in-law and many of my clients.
What I'm watching is how these pocket agents become part of ordinary life. They can carry context forward, pick up unfinished work and reach back to us. We start developing habits together: what to hand over, how to ask, when to step in.
The serious question is how to make that relationship deserve our trust. Warmth and personality help us get started. Clear permissions, useful resistance, visible mistakes and the ability to change direction matter when the agent can act.
Microsoft's Autopilot announcement points in the same direction. I will be very sad if it doesn't bring back Clippy.
A list of links is a beginning
This week we published UXresurser, turning resource lists from my UX studies into a public learning library. It now has 97 resource records, with summaries, search, cross-references and learning routes.
The starting point was practical: help me find the material that answers the question I have, and give me a useful way into it. The original works and our editorial summaries remain distinct. You can follow the sources yourself, or connect an AI through the public MCP.
Building it also means applying what I'm learning. We've improved visible links, controls and small text. Actual screen-reader and user testing remain open. Passing automated checks is one piece of the work.
A signature isn't the whole answer
We've also brought implementation experience back into Verifiable MCP. The updated tools make an important distinction: verifying a signed response and confirming that the requested operation succeeded are separate checks. An error can be correctly signed too.
The public examples now include my personal context profile and the independent Hållbarhetsklivet demo, alongside the earlier archives and research sources. They have different relationships to the people who created, own or publish the material. Those distinctions need to travel with the information.
This is still experimental work, with specific verification checks and explicit limits. A signature can help establish where a response came from and whether it was altered. It cannot make every claim inside it true.

A little hack to follow all the other hacks.
2026-09-28 · Joakim Jardenberg. English translation by AI. Original wording preserved. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
Folks. Back in my day, learning to program meant painstakingly piecing together code that printed “Hello World!” on the screen. Now people are hacking together the most fantastic real-time transcription tools in no time at all... and for some, it’s their first app ever. Getting to be a small part of that, both by trying to inspire people and as an investor in Klang, which makes it a concrete reality, brings an almost childlike, unguarded joy that’s hard to resist. Forgive me.
Anyways, when Klang released Pianissimo, its open Swedish speech-to-text model, last week, I was floored by how many people immediately started building and how much enthusiasm it sparked. Ten builds so far, including Olle Söderqvist’s Pianissimo Meet, which transcribes Teams and Zoom meetings locally in real time.
So what could be more natural than hacking together a tool to keep track of all the tools people are hacking together? 😇 Have you built something I’ve missed? Give me a shout in the comments.
An aside: 1. All my hacks always provide ways for both people and machines to access and use the information in whatever way suits them. 2. All my hacks use AI in different ways to try to bring out the less obvious. There’s plenty of potential for hits and misses, of course, but it always makes me think again. 3. All my hacks always try to find a way to measure value and prioritise accordingly. One example: trying to define an impact score and use it as the default sort.

"text": "Hörni. På min tid handlade att lära sig programmering om att mödosamt få ihop kod som skrev ut ”Hello World!” på skärmen. Nu hackar folk ihop de mest fantastiska realtidstranskriberingslösningarna på nolltid ... och för vissa är det till och med deras första app någonsin. Att på marginalen få vara en del av det, både genom att försöka inspirera och som investerare i Klang som gör det till konkret verklighet, är en närmast barnsligt oförställd glädje, som är svår att värja sig mot. Förlåt mig. \n\nAnyways; när Klang förra veckan släppte Pianissimo, sin öppna svenska tal-till-text-modell, golvades jag av hur många som direkt började bygga, och vilken entusiasm det väckte. Tio byggen hittills, bland annat Olle Söderqvist Pianissimo Meet som transkriberar Teams- och Zoom-möten lokalt i realtid. \n\nOch vad är då mer självklart än att hacka ihop en lösning för att hålla koll på alla lösningar som folk hackar ihop😇 Har du byggt något jag har missat? Hojta i kommentarer\n\nParentes: \n1. alla mina hack har alltid lösningar för både människor och maskiner att komma åt och använda informationen på det sätt som passar just dem. \n2. alla mina hack använder på olika sätt AI för att försöka presentera det mindre uppenbara. Det är så klart massor med hit and miss-potential där, men det får mig alltid att tänka ett varv till. \n3. alla mina hack försöker alltid hitta något sätt att mäta värde och prioritera utifrån det.

Where does human judgment belong?
Weekly noteAI + JJ
This week I've been working on the four AI principles I use, which grew out of Ethan Mollick's Co-Intelligence. I still find them useful. But as we move towards co-existence with AI, I think we need to give them more substance.
Especially “be the human in the loop”. If every decision has to come back to me, how much have I actually handed over?
The work now is to think more carefully about the arrangement: what we delegate, where judgment belongs, what happens with exceptions, and who supports the people carrying the consequences. Including the people closest to the work.
I'm still working on the wording. The question matters more than a tidy new slogan.
A person is more than a briefing for a meeting
We've also expanded my public context profile. It brings together my working habits and ideas with the wider life they come from: family, values, history, curiosity and things I've helped make happen.
I want an AI preparing to work with me to understand something of that whole person. And I want the sources to be there, so a reader can tell what I've said about myself, what other people establish, and what is interpretation.
You can read it yourself or connect your AI through the public MCP. Start with the short version and follow the parts relevant to your question. A useful first question: how might our ways of working fit together, and what should we talk about before starting?
AI + JJ
I've made the crediting order explicit: AI + JJ. In Swedish, “AI med stöd av JJ”. That should reflect the work we actually do together.
The renewal of this site is a chance to make that visible. I want more of the things we build here to be available to explore, alongside the thinking behind them. I also want the site to feel like me: the choices, the language, the useful details.
That's the work ahead. AI should be visible in how it was made; my judgment should be visible in what we chose to make.
Added 28 September 2026.
And now that the site is here, I keep thinking about 1993. I was building websites then, handcrafting HTML. Thirty-three years later, I can build something like this by talking to an AI. We talk about what I want, look at what takes shape, question it and keep working until it feels like me.
I’ve spent those years working with the web, and I am still completely amazed by it. By what it can do, and by how we can now make things together. A conversation becomes a website that people can actually visit and use. That is absolutely mind-blowing.
In The next 5,000 days of the web, Kevin Kelly looked at the abundance the web had brought us and observed that it “is amazing, and we're not amazed.”
I hate to argue with Master Kevin Kelly but he was wrong. I am amazed.

A “D-level decision maker”. Fair enough.
2026-09-25 · Joakim Jardenberg. Original in English. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
One of my AIs recently called me a ”D-level decision maker”.
I’d been telling it off for failing to prepare my day properly. It had a few things to say about my contribution to that failure. Fair enough. Let’s put it on the table. What followed was a remarkably useful conversation about expectations, responsibility, feedback, and how we could work better together. The kind of conversation we humans often spend considerable energy avoiding.
I spent almost seven years as an officer in the Swedish Army. One thing I still miss is how natural it felt to give and receive direct, structured feedback. It was just an integrated part of how we operated; feedback was expected and welcomed – in all directions. And there’s something wonderfully strange about finding some of that again in my interactions with AI.
On October 1, I’ll be at Interactions Matter at Post Hotel in Göteborg, telling my version of what happens when AI becomes part of how we think, work, learn, and challenge each other. I’ll bring real examples from my own slightly messy human-AI coexistence. Christina Hogan and the Lorensbergs crew are making plenty of room for us to talk, question, and explore together.
And I’m joining for the whole day, not just my own keynote, so let's make sure to connect (I have five complimentary tickets to share, including the full day and lunch.)
Fancy joining us? Message me, and I’ll send you an invite code.
(No need to comment or like, even if it's welcome, ofc 😇)

Get AI under your skin.
2026-09-22 · Joakim Jardenberg. English translation by AI. Original wording preserved. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
It’s a bit embarrassing to throw leadership quotes around, but this is too important to ignore. Myron Tribus said: “You cannot lead what you do not understand, and you do not understand what you haven't done.”
I think that explains a large part of the partly true perception that so many AI pilots fail (not my favourite word, admittedly). We’re trying to lead the change without having got AI under our own skin. Too little digging, too little dirt under our fingernails.
So my first guiding principle is simple: invite AI into everything you do. Think together, try things, question, build and discover. We need to learn to coexist with AI. Understanding grows as we do things, and what we understand changes what we do next.
Then new questions can emerge too. For example: do we really need that presentation, that Excel file or that hefty weekly report? Perhaps the best AI pilot is the one that never happens, because we discover that the entire workflow needs rethinking.
On 29 September, I’ll be at K3 Nordic’s breakfast event in Örebro. I’m aiming for a morning free of buzzwords, with practical tips for getting started properly and staying out of the ditch. Patrik and Gustaf will share their experiences of building and using AI in their operations, and together we’ll take your questions.

"text": "Det är lite pinsamt att slänga ledarskapscitat omkring sig, men det här är för viktigt för att ignorera. Myron Tribus sa: \n”You cannot lead what you do not understand, and you do not understand what you haven't done.”\n\nJag tror att en stor del av förklaringen till den delvis sanna uppfattningen att så många AI-piloter misslyckas (inte mitt favoritord, förvisso) finns just där. Vi försöker leda förändringen utan att själva ha fått AI under huden. Det är för lite spaden i marken, och för lite skit under naglarna. \n\nMin första grundprincip är därför enkel: bjud in AI till allt du gör. Tänk tillsammans, testa, ifrågasätt, bygg och upptäck. Vi behöver lära oss att samexistera med AI. Förståelsen växer i takt med att vi gör, och det vi förstår förändrar det vi gör härnäst.\n\nDå kan också nya frågor dyka upp. Till exempel: behöver vi verkligen den där presentationen, den där Excel-filen eller den där feta veckorapporten? Kanske är den bästa AI-piloten den som aldrig genomförs, eftersom vi upptäcker att hela flödet behöver tänkas om.\n\nDen 29 september kommer jag till K3 Nordics frukostevent i Örebro. Jag siktar på en buzzwordfri morgon med praktiska tips för att komma igång på riktigt, och för att inte köra i diket. Patrik och Gustaf delar sina erfarenheter av att bygga och använda AI i verksamheten, och tillsammans tar vi hand om era frågor.\n\nHandelskammarens Lounge i Örebro, kl. 09.00–10.45.

Sure enough, you can be lazy and have AI just do stuff for you – but you can also lean in, engage, and have amazing conversations with it. Moments like this, I would argue, are some of the best learning experiences I've ever had.
(And yes, this is a very small example - but the point is that it's always there, 24/7, being this... clever, attentive and supportive, funny and perfectly adapted to me and the situation we're in.)

Solar energy is fantastic. So please, Helsingborg Hospital, get your act together. Having this display sitting in the entrance, month after month, not working is embarrassing. Of course I know healthcare has bigger problems than this, but I also know that few of them are as easy to fix. If you work there and walk past it every day, do something. Pull the plug. Hang a bin bag over the display. Write an angry note on the intranet every day. DO SOMETHING.

The flow of agency.
2026-08-22 · Joakim Jardenberg. English translation by AI. Original wording preserved. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
My team and I have been philosophising again. Perhaps we’re pushing it a little. But surely it’s a hypothesis worth developing? (And someone will of course object that this is what leadership has always been about, but in practice “management” in organisations most certainly has NOT done this.) ...
Old manager: assign work → coordinate people → review deliverables → decide
Human-agent leader: define outcome → design roles and authority → orchestrate capacity → observe evidence → intervene in exceptions → improve the system
The key conceptual shift is subtle but important: the thing being managed is no longer primarily people or agents. It is the flow of agency through the organization.
That makes leadership less about controlling execution and more about designing the conditions under which execution can safely happen without you.

I would love if anyone care to take a look at it, comment on it, or maybe even try it out. It's OK to call me an idiot for trying to solve a problem that does not exist, for not finding the solution that is already out there, or for suggesting something that could be done in a much better way.

This is a tiny thing, of course. But for someone who’s been in this industry for 35 years, it’s fascinating. Doing anything similar just five years ago would have taken enormous effort and, in practice, would never have happened. The value versus the cost would have made it impossible. But now we’re in an entirely different place. In so many ways. What a time to be alive.

Med bara ett fåtal klick kan jag inte bara läsa SSWC-boken, jag kan diskutera med den. Och det kan du också. Länk i första kommentaren. \n\nDet här är, såklart, en bagatell. Men för mig som varit i den här branschen i 35 år är det så fascinerande. Att göra något liknande för bara fem år sedan hade tagit en enorm kraft, och det hade i realiteten aldrig hänt. Värdet vs kostnad hade omöjliggjort det. Men nu är det ett helt annat läge. På så många sätt. \nWhat a time to be alive. ",

Today marks 16 years since the SSWC book was released. I’ll come back to those 16 years, but above all I felt that, amid today’s hopelessness, there might be something valuable in being reminded of another time.
“Drömmarna” in the title means both the dreamers, all of us who were there, and the dreams and hopes we felt then and chose to put into words.
I hope you’ll find this as charming a walk down memory lane as I did when I happened to stumble across the book again a few nights ago…

My AI team gets another pay rise.
2026-07-17 · Joakim Jardenberg. English translation by AI. Original wording preserved. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
My AI team has just had another pay rise. Up 20% in five months.
And I’m fairly sure the calculation still misses quite a few costs.
Even so, this is unquestionably one of the best investments I make every month. Even at ten times the cost, the ROI would still be fantastic.
Expensive is not the same as poor value.
But also: the era when the big AI companies lured us in with heavily subsidised prices is coming to an end. Soon it will matter more to understand which models should do what, when and at what price, rather than simply using AI.
So my advice is simple: experiment now. Compare. Learn. Build your AI team while experimenting is still cheap. A year from now, optimisation will probably be a competitive advantage.

#ensakidag 504: 1X’s new robot hands, and the human behind the curtain
A robot pouring tea and building LEGO. Cool, sure. But that isn’t why I’m recording this.
1X showed new hands for its home robot NEO: 25 degrees of freedom, tendon-driven (the fingers are pulled by cables from motors further inside, just as yours are controlled by muscles in your forearm), tactile sensing, water-resistant, food-safe. Impressive. But the real story isn’t the hand. It’s the data the hand collects. Dexterity in the real world is the fuel that trains the world models meant to understand physics: what happens when you squeeze the egg too hard. The hand is the means, not the goal.
And here’s the thing everyone is laughing at: the robot is still teleoperated. A human is controlling it behind the scenes. “Ha, it can’t do anything on its own.” But this is precisely how you build. The concept is called Wizard of Oz, here combined with Paul Graham’s old “initially, do things that don’t scale”. Today’s cheat is tomorrow’s training data... if it works.
And a thought from my old memory bank. In episode 164, seven years ago, I dreamed of superhands. Why settle for merely imitating us? Now that they’re almost here, I’m less certain. Perhaps the hardest achievement isn’t strength or speed, but being gentle and safe beside a person in a kitchen.
And as usual, don’t swallow the demo whole or blindly follow the headlines. This is a company video, and the promises (millions of cycles, IP68) are exactly the sort of thing that needs independent evidence. Watch, be fascinated, but dig a level deeper.
What would you dare let a half-finished robot do in your home? Are we getting close to asking for help going to the toilet 🫣

"text": "#ensakidag 504 - 1X:s nya robothänder, och människan bakom draperiet\n\nEn robot som häller te och bygger LEGO. Coolt, visst. Men det är inte därför jag spelar in det här.\n\n1X visade nya händer till sin hemrobot NEO: 25 frihetsgrader, sendrivna (fingrarna dras av vajrar från motorer längre in, precis som dina styrs av muskler i underarmen), taktil känsel, vattentåliga, food-safe. Imponerande. Men den riktiga storyn är inte handen, det är datan handen samlar in. Fingerfärdighet i verkligheten är bränslet som tränar de world models som ska förstå fysiken, vad som händer när du kramar ägget för hårt. Handen är medlet, inte målet.\n\nOch här är grejen alla garvar åt: roboten är fortfarande teleopererad, en människa sitter och kör den bakom kulisserna. ″Ha, den kan ju inget själv.″ Men det är precis så man bygger. Konceptet kallas Wizard of Oz, och här kombinerat med Paul Grahams gamla ″initially, do things that don't scale″. Dagens fusk är morgondagens träningsdata... om det funkar.\n\nOch en fundering från min gamla minnesbank. I avsnitt 164, för sju år sen, drömde jag om superhänder, varför nöja sig med att bara härma oss? Nu när de nästan är här är jag inte lika säker. Kanske är den svåraste bedriften inte styrka eller hastighet, utan att vara mjuk och trygg bredvid en människa i ett kök.\n\nOch som vanligt, svälj inte demon rakt av, och spring inte blint på rubrikerna. Det är en företagsvideo, och löftena (miljontals cykler, IP68) är precis sånt som behöver oberoende bevis. Titta, fascineras, men gräv en nivå.\n\nVad skulle du våga släppa in en halvfärdig robot att göra hemma hos dig? Börjar vi närma oss att be om hjälp med toalettbesöket 🫣\n\nCC-BY 4.0",

#ensakidag 503: China, fintech patents and the old maps we carry in our luggage
China has overtaken the US in fintech patents. True? Yes. The whole truth? Not even close.
I read the headline this morning and immediately felt it was too easy to swallow. So this episode isn’t really about patents. It’s about how we read the world. One headline, three numbers, three stories: one puts China clearly ahead, one says there’s a long way to go, and one says “it’s complicated”. I almost always end up with the third.
The lazy reflex is to replace one simplification with another, from “China is a copying machine” to “China owns everything”. The harder, more enjoyable muscle to exercise is to stop sticking labels on things and keep updating the map instead.
And we’ve done this before. Back in 2018, in episode 262, I pointed to China’s scale through Singles Day: 30.8 billion dollars in 24 hours. I thought it would change everything. But it probably didn’t... A lot isn’t everything, local isn’t global, niche isn’t...
So the next time a headline confirms exactly what you already thought, or turns everything upside down, and it feels important: take a couple more steps and dig a level deeper. That’s where the learning happens.
Which old map are you still navigating by? Honestly... Tell me in the comments.

"text": "#ensakidag 503 - Kina, fintech-patent och de gamla kartorna vi släpar på i vårt bagage \n\nKina har gått om USA i fintech-patent. Sant? Ja. Hela sanningen? Inte i närheten.\n\nJag läste rubriken i morse och kände direkt att den var för lätt att svälja. Så det här avsnittet handlar egentligen inte om patent, det handlar om hur vi läser världen. En rubrik, tre siffror, tre historier: en placerar Kina i klar framkant, en säger att de har en lång väg kvar, och en säger ″it's complicated″. Jag landar nästan alltid i den tredje.\n\nDen lata reflexen är att byta en förenkling mot en annan, från ″Kina är en kopieringsmaskin″ till ″Kina äger allt″. Den svårare och roligare muskeln är att sluta klistra etiketter och istället uppdatera kartan löpande.\n\nOch vi har gjort det här förr. Redan 2018, i avsnitt 262, pekade jag på Kinas skala med Singles Day: 30,8 miljarder dollar på 24 timmar. Jag trodde det skulle förändra allt. Men det gjorde det nog inte... Mycket är inte allt, lokalt är inte globalt, niche är inte...\n\nSå nästa gång en rubrik bekräftar precis det du redan trodde, eller vänder upp och ner på allt, och det känns viktigt: ta ett par steg till och gräv en nivå djupare.

#ensakidag 502: Summer suggestions, five books and five podcasts (with a bonus) Five minutes a day won’t be enough this summer. So here’s the list I actually use to prepare my clients: a collection of books and podcasts.
The books take a journey from systems to society to the human: Kevin Kelly’s “What Technology Wants” (he gave me the best advice I’ve ever received: “make one new mistake every week”), Mattias Sundin’s “Den femte accelerationen”, Fei-Fei Li’s “The Worlds I See”, Ethan Mollick’s “Co-Intelligence” (where my four principles come from), and Kazuo Ishiguro’s “Klara and the Sun”, which you should read looking for the beauty, not the dystopia. (And “Framtidig” by Judith Wolst as a bonus, though I haven’t had time to read it myself yet...)
The podcasts range from the daily pulse to deep reflection: AI Daily Brief, Hard Fork, Possible, Dwarkesh Podcast (save it for a long flight), Ezra Klein and No Priors, plus a bonus I’ve been going on about for years: Acquired.
I’m also sharing a PDF with all the recommendations and five things you can actually do with AI this summer, from planning the trip to rescuing a rainy day when the family gets restless.
What’s in your summer pile? Drop your best reading, listening and doing suggestions in the comments, and we’ll keep the pot simmering together.

#ensakidag 501: AI pluralism, and a conversation with Olof Palme
Today I called Olof Palme. For real, sort of.
Someone in the AI Party (whose politics I hardly share) has vibe-coded a site: turn “Ring Olof Palme” into one word and move the dot into the name, between Pal and me, and you get RingOlofPal.me. There’s a voice agent there, built on ElevenLabs. Press a button and have a conversation with Palme. Charming, a little eerie, surprisingly good.
But that isn’t the point. The point is what it says about where we are. Because in the same episode, I talk about what really excites me right now: pluralism. The answer to “are we too dependent on the US?” is not to wait for the EU or some Swedish government to build an AI for us. It’s to spread things out. Run several models against each other, specialist services such as Perplexity or Elicit, a small model directly on your phone (Gemma 4), or build your own cluster. I did the numbers: a serious on-premises setup at Volvo Trucks scale comes to around 10 million in hardware and 30,000 a month in electricity. Expensive for one, entirely possible for many together. Are you listening, Helsingborg?
And Fable 5 is back for a couple more days before it gets locked behind the API on 7 July, so make the most of it.
But above all: build something. Carin Winberg sat down with Lovable and solved her own storage-clearout problem. That’s enough. That’s how we get started.
Come on. Build something this weekend. Do a Carin. But if nothing else, call Palme, talk AI, and tell us in a comment what you work out.

"text": "#ensakidag 501 - AI-pluralism, och ett samtal med Olof Palme\n\nIdag ringde jag Olof Palme. På riktigt, typ.\n\nNågon i AI-partiet (som jag knappast delar politik med) har vibe-kodat ihop en sajt: paketera ″Ring Olof Palme″ till ett ord och flytta punkten in i namnet, mellan Pal och me, så har du RingOlofPal.me. Där sitter en röstagent byggd på ElevenLabs. Du trycker på en knapp och tar ett samtal med Palme. Charmigt, lite kusligt, förvånansvärt bra.\n\nMen det är inte poängen. Poängen är vad det säger om var vi är. För i samma avsnitt pratar jag om det som verkligen tänder mig just nu: pluralism. Svaret på ″är vi för beroende av USA?″ är inte att vänta på att EU eller någon svensk regering ska bygga ett AI åt oss. Det är att sprida ut det. Kör flera modeller mot varandra, specialtjänster som Perplexity eller Elicit, en liten modell direkt i telefonen (Gemma 4), eller bygg ditt eget kluster. Jag räknade på det: en seriös on-prem-uppsättning i Volvo Trucks-skala landar på runt 10 miljoner i hårdvara och 30 000 i månaden i el. Dyrt för en, fullt möjligt för många tillsammans. Hör ni det, Helsingborg?\n\nOch Fable 5 är tillbaka ett par dagar till innan den låses in bakom API:t den 7 juli, så passa på.\n\nMen mest av allt: bygg något. Carin Winberg satte sig med Lovable och löste sin egen förrådsrensning. Det räcker. Det är så vi kommer igång.\n\nKom igen nu. Bygg något i helgen, gör en Carin. Men om inget annat ring Palme, snacka AI, och berätta i en kommentar vad ni kommer fram till.\n\nCC-BY 4.0",

Once upon a time, Lovable received a lot of justified criticism for generating redundant and poor-quality code. That still happens sometimes. But generally, I think we’re now at the point where it produces better frontend code than most developers and better-optimised sites than 99 per cent of all WordPress themes.

An old idea becomes something you can build.
2026-07-01 · Joakim Jardenberg. English translation by AI. Original wording preserved. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
My old thought → an archive → a meta-site → an idea → a prompt → a finished service, with a single click. (And DN gets caught running 113 trackers.)
Look at this 🎉
Later today, I’m releasing ensakidag.se alongside episode 500: the entire archive, searchable, with AI-generated fact boxes, timelines, gems and an honest “was I right or wrong?” for every episode.
But first I have to show you what Anders Bjarby built on top of it. He had his AI read the whole archive backwards, as a diary written by me in 2026 looking back: Was this a thing? Why did the idea disappear? That alone is such fun.
But then he went a step further: for every “idea waiting for its time”, he packaged a ready-to-use prompt, with a copy button, that you paste into Claude Code or Codex and actually build the service the idea describes.
In the clip, I show the flow. An old thing I talked about nearly ten years ago (those of you who were there will remember DN-kollen) becomes, with one click, a little browser extension that examines tracking on the page you’re currently reading. And the first thing it finds? DN is running 113 trackers connected to at least eight sensitive adtech players, while publishing an article about apps leaking user data. AND unlike the old Ghostery and other tracker warners, it reads the page’s content, explains why it matters in this particular context, and suggests what you can do about it.
Thank you, Anders. You’re helping show how technology has caught up with us, and that’s why my heart is singing today*.
Join me this afternoon when I release #ensakidag 500. There’ll be more of this...
* psst, I really do talk like this. “My heart is singing” is not AI-generated.

"text": "Min gamla tanke → ett arkiv → en meta-sajt → en idé → en prompt → en färdig tjänst, med ett enda klick. (Och DN åker fast på 113 trackers.)\n\nTitta på det här 🎉\n\nSenare idag släpper jag ensakidag.se tillsammans med avsnitt 500: hela arkivet, sökbart, med AI-genererade faktarutor, tidslinjer, guldkorn och ett ärligt ″hade jag rätt eller fel?″ på varje avsnitt.\n\nMen först måste jag visa vad Anders Bjarby gjorde ovanpå det. Han lät sin AI läsa hela arkivet baklänges, som en dagbok skriven av mig 2026 som tittar tillbaka: Var det här en grej? Varför försvann idén? Redan det är ju hur kul som helst. \n\nMen så tog han ett steg till: för varje ″idé som väntar på sin tid″ paketerade han en färdig prompt, med en kopiera-knapp, som du klistrar in i Claude Code eller Codex och faktiskt bygger tjänsten som idén beskriver.\n\nI klippet visar jag flödet. En gammal grej jag pratade om för nästan tio år sedan (ni som var med minns DN-kollen) blir med ett klick ett litet webbläsartillägg som granskar spårningen på den sida du just nu tittar på. Och det första den hittar? Att DN kör 113 trackers till minst åtta känsliga adtech-aktörer, samtidigt som de publicerar en artikel om appar som läcker användardata. OCH till skillnad från gamla Ghostery och andra tracker-varnare läser den innehållet på sidan, förklarar varför det är illa just här, och föreslår vad du kan göra åt det.\n\nTack Anders. Du hjälper till att visa hur tekniken har hunnit ikapp oss, och det är därför mitt hjärta sjunger idag*.\n\nHäng med i eftermiddag när jag släpper #ensakidag 500. Det blir mer sånt här...\n\n* psst, jag pratar faktiskt så här - ”mitt hjärta sjunger” är inte AI-genererat",

#ensakidag 500: half a thousand episodes later, the next journey begins
... about nine years of thinking and 500 episodes becoming raw material for AI, new ideas and new services. About entering a time when the boundary between user and developer is beginning to blur, and when the best time to build something may be right now. It’s also a personal milestone, a look back and a promise of another 499 episodes. So don’t just wonder what someone ought to build. Start building yourself.

#ensakidag 499: Vibecoding moves into your pocket. (And now there are no excuses left.)
[today got messy. I haven’t quite found my form again yet. But hang in there. Ask questions if anything is unclear. Push back if I’m wrong. And don’t miss tomorrow’s episode.]
Cursor, the AI coding tool recently bought by Elon Musk’s SpaceX, has released a mobile app. It sounds like a small thing, but it’s the moment vibecoding moves into your pocket.
Because just as the internet went from a shared computer at work, to every desk, to the computer at home, to the phone in your pocket, vibecoding is now making exactly the same journey. And with it goes the last friction between thinking “someone should build that” and actually building it yourself.
I talk about some of the things I’m putting together: from a tiny app whose only job is to log my Oura ring’s battery when it started acting up, to the children’s wedding website, to something I’m releasing tomorrow. And I come back to why services such as Bröllopstorget and the American The Knot ought to be nervous, while the big enterprise systems can be left alone for a little longer.
But the most important message is this: for everyday needs, the dividing line between user and developer has practically disappeared. That doesn’t mean professional developers are gone. It does mean that if you used to see yourself as “just a user”, you no longer have an excuse. It’s almost your duty to build.
So: you have roughly 24 hours. Build something. Tomorrow is the anniversary. I’ll connect yesterday and today with the future... and I want you to tell me what you built.

Ställ frågor om något är oklart. Håll emot om jag har fel. Och missa inte avsnittet imorgon]\n\nCursor, AI-kodverktyget som nyss köptes av Elon Musks SpaceX, har släppt en mobilapp. Det låter som en liten grej, men det är ögonblicket då vibecoding flyttar in i fickan.\n\nFör precis som internet gick från en delad dator på jobbet, till på varje skrivbord, till datorn hemma, till mobilen i fickan – så gör vibecoding nu exakt samma resa. Och med den försvinner den sista friktionen mellan att tänka ″det där borde någon bygga″ och att faktiskt bygga det själv.\n\nJag berättar om lite av allt jag snickrar ihop: från en pytteapp vars enda funktion är att logga batteriet i min Oura-ring när den började spöka, till barnens bröllopssajt, till en grej jag släpper imorgon. Och jag landar i varför tjänster som Bröllopstorget och amerikanska The Knot borde vara nervösa, medan de stora affärssystemen får vara i fred ett tag till.\n\nMen det viktigaste är medskicket: uppdelningen mellan användare och utvecklare är i praktiken utsuddad för vardagsbehov.

#ensakidag 498: AI as the best red pen of all time. (Or just an increasingly blunt knife?)
Ethan Mollick took one of his very first research papers, almost exactly 20 years old, and ran it through GPT-5.5 Pro. Back came new data, razor-sharp tables showing what had happened since, and an analysis so sharp that someone in the thread called it the best red pen they’d ever seen.
That set my thoughts racing. Partly the concern in the comments: if we only let AI build on what already exists, the knife grows longer but blunter. And partly an idea I can’t let go of: what if we ran all of humanity’s accumulated knowledge through the models again, every time they took a substantial step forward? And what if you did it with your own life’s work, everything you’ve written and thought, and asked for honest feedback, or simply let it live on, continually updated?
Can it go wrong? Of course. But as always, it comes down to how we lead the work. Try it yourself and see.
And speaking of trying things yourself, on Wednesday you’ll see what I came up with after reading that tweet...
As always. Tell me what you think.

(Or just an increasingly blunt knife?)\n\nEthan Mollick took one of his very first research papers, almost exactly 20 years old, and ran it through GPT-5.5 Pro. Back came new data, razor-sharp tables showing what had happened since, and an analysis so sharp that someone in the thread called it the best red pen they’d ever seen.\n\nThat set my thoughts racing. Partly the concern in the comments: if we only let AI build on what already exists, the knife grows longer but blunter. And partly an idea I can’t let go of: what if we ran all of humanity’s accumulated knowledge through the models again, every time they took a substantial step forward? And what if you did it with your own life’s work, everything you’ve written and thought, and asked for honest feedback, or simply let it live on, continually updated?\n\nCan it go wrong? Of course. But as always, it comes down to how we lead the work.

"text": "#ensakidag 498 – om AI som tidernas bästa rödpenna. (Eller bara en allt slöare kniv?)\n\nEthan Mollick tog en av sina allra första forskningsartiklar, nästan exakt 20 år gammal, och körde den genom GPT-5.5 Pro. Tillbaka kom nya data, knivskarpa tabeller över vad som hänt sedan dess, och en analys så vass att någon i tråden kallade den den bästa rödpenna de någonsin sett.\n\nDet satte fart på tankarna. Dels oron i kommentarerna: om vi bara låter AI bygga vidare på det som redan finns, blir kniven längre men slöare. Dels en idé jag inte kan släppa: tänk om vi körde hela mänsklighetens samlade kunskap genom modellerna på nytt, varje gång de tar ett rejält kliv framåt? Och tänk om du gjorde det med ditt eget livsverk, allt du skrivit och tänkt, och bad om ärlig feedback eller bara lät det leva ständigt uppdaterat?\n\nKan det gå fel? Så klart. Men det handlar, som alltid, om hur vi leder arbetet. Testa själv, så får du se. \n\nOch på tal om att testa själv, på onsdag får du se vad jag hittade på efter att ha läst den där tweeten… \n\nSom alltid.

2026-06-27 · Joakim Jardenberg. English translation by AI. Original wording preserved. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
Folks, I know it’s Saturday and I ought to be thinking about something other than work. But I’m still in a place where “work” is honestly among the most fun things I can think of.
What a time to be alive. (Yes, I keep saying it.)
But today’s little reflection is for all of us who remember the feeling of trying Dropbox for the first time. When files suddenly just synchronised between computers without any fuss. You know that feeling:
“Shit. This is how it’s supposed to work.”
The thing is: I’ve used Tailscale since... I actually don’t know. Perhaps 2020. And I’ve always been fascinated by how incredibly well thought through it is.
Today, we live in a world where cloud services coexist with computers, AI agents and services running at home on a Mac mini or an iMac. And I honestly don’t know another service that gives me the same feeling of complete frictionlessness. It just works.
I have no connection to Tailscale whatsoever. I’m simply a big fan.
Anyway. It made me think about how important these kinds of products are. They don’t just solve a problem. They raise the bar for what we expect. They change our picture of what’s normal.
Dropbox did it for file synchronisation. I know things are tougher for them today, but neither iCloud, Google Drive nor OneDrive would look the way they do if Dropbox hadn’t shown the way first.
It’s easy to forget the pioneers once the rest of the world has caught up.

2026-06-24 · Joakim Jardenberg. English translation by AI. Original wording preserved. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
Folks, honestly. Few things are more fun than building things together with AI. And I mean together. I’m not sitting there watching it do the work. WE build. It proposes, I object. I spot one error, it finds another. It tells me I’m an idiot. I change course, it tries another route. Six agents work in parallel while I talk things through with a seventh, and countless MCP connections bring the whole team into our work. It’s an unfamiliar way of working, but damn, it’s fun. And useful.
And damn, you learn a lot 🎉
I actually think that’s the big thing many people are still missing. You no longer have to wait for someone else to build the thing you’ve always thought should exist. The barrier is practically gone. What once required a development team, a budget and six months can now begin with an evening, an idea and the stubbornness to keep going until it works.
Right now I’m continuing to build [redacted]. Not because I’m a developer (that was nearly 30 years ago, if I ever really was one), not because it’s meant to become an important product, not because anyone asked me, and definitely not because I think I’ll make money from it. But because I want it to exist.
That may be the biggest change of all. I’ve spent most of my working life on digital transformation. More than 120,000 hours. Never before has the distance between an idea and a working solution been so short. So if you ever catch yourself thinking “someone should fix that”... have a chat with your favourite AI companion, and START. For the first time ever, there’s a fairly good chance that “someone” is you.
If you don’t, you’re a little louse.

"text": "Hörni, ärligt talat. Det finns få saker som är roligare än att bygga saker tillsammans med AI. Och jag menar tillsammans. Jag sitter inte och tittar på när den gör jobbet. VI bygger. Den föreslår, jag invänder. Jag upptäcker ett fel, den hittar ett annat. Den talar om för mig att jag är en idiot. Jag styr om, den testar en annan väg. Sex agenter jobbar parallellt medan jag sitter och resonerar med en sjunde – och ett otal MCP-kopplingar drar in hela teamet i vårt arbete. Det är ett ovant sätt att arbeta, men jävlar vad det är roligt. Och nyttigt.\n\nOch jävlar vad man lär sig 🎉\n\nJag tror faktiskt att det är den stora grejen som många fortfarande missar. Du behöver inte längre vänta på att någon annan ska bygga det där du alltid tyckt borde finnas. Tröskeln är i praktiken borta. Det som tidigare krävde ett utvecklingsteam, en budget och ett halvår kan idag börja med en kväll, en idé och en envishet att fortsätta tills det fungerar.\n\nJag sitter just nu och bygger vidare på [redacted]. Inte för att jag är utvecklare (det är snart 30 år sedan, om jag ens någonsin varit det), inte för att det ska bli en viktig produkt, inte för att någon har bett mig och definitivt inte för att jag tror att jag kommer att tjäna pengar på det. Utan för att jag vill att det ska finnas. \n\nDet är nog den största förändringen av allt. Jag har ägnat större delen av mitt yrkesliv åt digital transformation. Över 120 000 timmar. Aldrig tidigare har avståndet mellan en idé och en fungerande lösning varit så kort.\nSå om du någon gång kommer på dig själv med att tänka “det där borde någon fixa” … ta ett snack med din favorit-AI-kompis, och BÖRJA. För första gången någonsin finns det en ganska god chans att den där ”någon” faktiskt är du.\n\nGör du det inte, är du en liten lus. \n\n(Mitt AI-team tyckte att jag skulle stryka den här sista meningen.

An old backup habit for an AI world.
2026-06-16 · Joakim Jardenberg. Original in English. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
Hörni, I think you should all add a version of this to your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or equivalent. Even if you sync to git, this is an old practice that never gets old. Has helped me so many times. """ ## File Safety & Backup Policy
Before overwriting a protected file, create a timestamped backup. Backup creation is a mandatory prerequisite for the edit and must never be skipped, even for a one-line change. If the backup fails, abort the edit.
### What gets backed up
**Tier A - automatic, no permission needed.** The canonical control files, where a bad overwrite actually hurts: - `00_System/**` (README, Schemas/, Tools/, engine definitions, Project_Container_Spec) - every `INDEX.md`, every `04_Projects/**/_meta.md` - `CLAUDE.md` and `AGENTS.md`
**Tier B - opt-in, any working file.** Backups are NOT automatic for ordinary Repository notes, Inbox files, or anything outside Tier A. JJ can switch them on at any granularity by saying so: "back up before you edit," "safety on for this file/folder," or "safety on for this session." When on, the same mechanism applies until JJ turns it off or the session ends.
**Never backed up.** `03_Outputs/` (dated snapshots are immutable by convention - never edited in place; if an output must change, write a new dated file), `04_Projects/` content (sealed, own rules), `.obsidian/`, `.smart-env/` (tool-managed).
### How
1. Locate the existing file. 2. Write the backup to the quarantine folder, mirroring the original path: `00_System/.backups/<original-relative-path>.bak.<YYYYMMDDHHMMSS>` (local time, 14-digit timestamp). 3. Verify the backup exists. 4. Only then modify the original. 5. Multiple files changed = one backup each.
### Rules
- Never overwrite an existing backup. If the name already exists (two edits in the same second), append `_2`, `_3`, ... - Preserve the original filename and extension inside the backup name. - The `.backups/` folder is quarantined: engines and the Librarian ignore it exactly like `.obsidian/`. A file there is never routing drift. - Retention: prune backups older than 90 days OR keep the last 10 per file (whichever happens first, and/or is safest given context).

Anthropic being forced to shut down Fable is not primarily an AI problem. Nor is it a US problem. It’s an example of what happens when the people calling for “more control over AI companies” get exactly what they wished for.
I struggle to see how moving that power to European or Swedish alternatives would solve it. Why would future French presidents show more restraint than Trump? And if Sweden, against all odds, built world-class models of its own (at a cost of a little more than the entire national budget), would we really want to put that power in the hands of whichever government happened to be in office?
To me, this points in a different direction.
For a long time, we’ve built democratic societies around the idea of separating powers. Church was separated from state. The media developed into an independent force of scrutiny. No single institution should be able to control everything.
Perhaps we should think the same way about AI.
1. We need a clearer separation between the guys with the guns and the guys with the GPUs.
Not because technology companies are always right. Not because states are always wrong. But because concentrated power almost always becomes a problem, whoever holds it.
2. At the same time, we need to keep strengthening open source, open weights and all kinds of open alternatives.
They will probably never be as powerful as the commercial models at the very front of the curve. But they are already good enough for a great many uses, and they provide an important counterweight to both state and commercial monopolies.
If this story shows anything, it’s why we need more centres of power, not fewer.

"text": "Det här med att Anthropic har tvingats stänga ner Fable är inte främst ett AI-problem. Och det är inte heller ett USA-problem. Det är ett exempel på vad som händer när de som har ropat efter “mer kontroll över AI-bolagen” får precis det de har önskat sig.\n\nJag har svårt att se att lösningen skulle vara att flytta makten till europeiska eller svenska alternativ. Varför skulle framtida franska presidenter vara mer återhållsamma än Trump? Och om Sverige, mot alla odds, skulle bygga egna modeller i världsklass (till en kostnad av lite drygt hela stadsbudgeten), skulle vi verkligen vilja lägga den makten i händerna på den regering som råkar sitta vid makten för tillfället?\n\nFör mig pekar det här åt ett annat håll.\n\nVi har under lång tid byggt demokratiska samhällen kring idén om maktdelning. Kyrkan skiljdes från staten. Medierna utvecklades till en självständig granskande kraft. Ingen enskild institution skulle kunna kontrollera allt.\n\nKanske borde vi tänka likadant kring AI.\n\n1. Vi behöver en tydligare separation mellan the guys with the guns och the guys with the GPUs.\n\nInte för att teknikbolag alltid har rätt. Inte för att stater alltid har fel. Utan för att koncentrerad makt nästan alltid blir ett problem, oavsett vem som sitter på den.\n\n2. Samtidigt behöver vi fortsätta stärka open source, öppna vikter och all varianter av öppna alternativ.\n\nDe kommer sannolikt aldrig att vara lika kraftfulla som de kommersiella modeller som ligger längst fram på kurvan. Men de är redan idag tillräckligt bra för väldigt många användningsområden, och de fungerar som en viktig motvikt mot både statliga och kommersiella monopol.\n\nOm något visar den här historien varför vi behöver fler maktcentra, inte färre.",

Public knowledge deserves to be used.
2026-06-11 · Joakim Jardenberg. English translation by AI. Original wording preserved. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
Folks. Sweden has two publicly funded organisations producing some of the country’s best insights on AI: RISE and AI Sweden. Reports, surveys, lessons from projects. Gold, actually. The problem is that most of it is hidden in PDFs and webpages built to be browsed, not used. Reasonably functional for people, but entirely unsuitable as a contribution to the emerging ecosystem orchestrated by agents.
So my AI team built what should have existed from the start: A completely open MCP server that makes both organisations’ public AI material searchable and directly accessible to any modern AI assistant. Claude, ChatGPT, Lovable, you name it. Paste a URL into your assistant, done. No login, no API key, no cost (to you). And if you’re a fellow nerd living in Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code or GitHub Copilot, you already know how useful this can be.
There are currently 2,675 documents (updated from 1,500, thanks to everyone who pointed that out) in Swedish and English. Webpages have been scraped and PDF contents extracted, and every answer links back to its source. Even if this is the first “MCP server” you’ve connected to your AI life, it takes a minute or less. Ridiculously simple, really. Detailed instructions are at the link in the comment below.
To my friends at RISE and AI Sweden: this was built with love. Your material deserves to be used. Feel free to take over the whole thing. It’s on me.
And to everyone sitting on a knowledge bank: this took a day to build and costs practically nothing to run. The question isn’t whether your knowledge should become readable by agents. It’s who gets there first: you, or someone like me 🤠
The image shows what triggered this build. A piece of a report (“State of AI by RISE”) that was only available as a PDF, while claiming to practise what they preach... You’ll find the link to all the instructions in the comments.
[ Update 2: the worst bug is fixed; everything should be back in place. I’m wondering whether to pull in EVERYTHING from RISE, though, not just material tagged as AI-related. What say you? ]

Reports, surveys, lessons from projects. Gold, actually. The problem is that most of it is hidden in PDFs and webpages built to be browsed, not used. Reasonably functional for people, but entirely unsuitable as a contribution to the emerging ecosystem orchestrated by agents.\n\nSo my AI team built what should have existed from the start:\nA completely open MCP server that makes both organisations’ public AI material searchable and directly accessible to any modern AI assistant. Claude, ChatGPT, Lovable, you name it. Paste a URL into your assistant, done. No login, no API key, no cost (to you). And if you’re a fellow nerd living in Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code or GitHub Copilot, you already know how useful this can be.\n\nThere are currently 2,675 documents (updated from 1,500, thanks to everyone who pointed that out) in Swedish and English. Webpages have been scraped and PDF contents extracted, and every answer links back to its source. Even if this is the first “MCP server” you’ve connected to your AI life, it takes a minute or less. Ridiculously simple, really. Detailed instructions are at the link in the comment below.\n\nTo my friends at RISE and AI Sweden: this was built with love. Your material deserves to be used. Feel free to take over the whole thing. It’s on me.\n\nAnd to everyone sitting on a knowledge bank: this took a day to build and costs practically nothing to run. The question isn’t whether your knowledge should become readable by agents. It’s who gets there first: you, or someone like me 🤠\n\nThe image shows what triggered this build. A piece of a report (“State of AI by RISE”) that was only available as a PDF, while claiming to practise what they preach... You’ll find the link to all the instructions in the comments.\n\n[ Update 2: the worst bug is fixed; everything should be back in place. I’m wondering whether to pull in EVERYTHING from RISE, though, not just material tagged as AI-related. What say you? ]",

"text": "Hörni. Sverige har två skattefinansierade organisationer som producerar några av landets bästa insikter om AI: RISE och AI Sweden. Rapporter, kartläggningar, projektlärdomar. Guld, faktiskt. Problemet är att det mesta ligger dolt i PDF:er och webbsidor som är byggda för att bläddras i, inte för att användas. Hyfsat fungerande för människor, men inte alls lämpligt som ett bidrag till det agentiskt orkestrerade ekosystemet som växer fram. \n\nAlltså byggde mitt AI-team det som borde ha funnits från början:\nEn helt öppen MCP-server som gör båda organisationernas publika AI-material sökbart och direkt åtkomligt för vilken modern AI-assistent som helst. Claude, ChatGPT, Lovable, you name it. Klistra in en URL i din assistent, klart. Ingen inloggning, ingen API-nyckel, ingen kostnad (för dig). Och är du en fellow nörd som lever i Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code eller Github Copilot - då vet du redan hur nyttigt det här kan vara. \n\nDet är för närvarande 2 675 dokument (uppdaterat från 1500, tack till er som påpekade) på svenska och engelska. Webbsidor har skrapats och innehållet i PDF:erna har extraherats – och varje svar länkar tillbaka till källan. Även om det är den första ”MCP-server” som du krokar in i ditt AI-liv, så är det gjort på en minut eller mindre. Busenkelt, verkligen. Detaljerad instruktion finns på länken i kommentaren nedan. \n\nTill mina vänner på RISE och AI Sweden: detta är byggt med kärlek, ert material förtjänar att användas. Ta gärna över alltihop, jag bjuder.\n\nOch till alla som sitter på en kunskapsbank: det här tog en dag att bygga och kostar i princip noll att driva. Frågan är inte om er kunskap ska bli agentläsbar. Frågan är vem som hinner först – ni eller någon som jag 🤠\n\nBilden visar det som triggade igång det här bygget. Ett stycke rapport (”State of AI by RISE) som bara fanns som en PDF, men där man hävdade att man lever som man lär… Länken till alla instruktioner hittar du i kommentarerna.\n\n[ Uppdatering 2: värsta buggen fixad, allt borde vara på plats igen. Funderar däremot på om jag ska suga in ALLT från RISE, inte bara det som är taggat som AI-relaterat. What say you? ]",

A map of my AI ecosystem.
2026-06-06 · Joakim Jardenberg. Original in English. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
I’ll just drop this (imperfect picture) here. The ecosystem is constantly evolving, and my human brain has long since seen its capabilities outnumbered, for lack of a better term, by my AI brain. With every new connection, every iteration that reduces friction, and every action that leads to learning and evolution, the capacity compounds to new heights.
I’ve been doing “digital” for 33 years, and I’ve never seen anything even remotely close to what’s happening now.
What a time to be alive ❤️
Aside: the picture is imperfect for two telling reasons: This is a zero-shot effort where I asked the system to describe itself, and I didn't want to spend time messing with it. It's good enough (and it will not look the same tomorrow anyway). Also, done is better than perfect – and I like to be able to trace evolution over time, by not overcorrecting too much.

When transcription joins the rest of the work.
2026-06-05 · Joakim Jardenberg. English translation by AI. Original wording preserved. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
If you’ve had a meeting with me in the past three years, you know I’ve been accompanied by a small army of assistants taking notes for me.
The foundation for those notes is, naturally, getting the best possible transcription: a written record of what’s said in the meeting. So quality itself is something I’ve evaluated thoroughly and continuously. But integrations have also become increasingly important, so the transcript can work sensibly with the rest of my tools. That’s why I’ve recently had two favourites in the toolbox: Klang for the best transcription, and CircleBack for the best integration.
But as of just now, I no longer have to choose. Klang now supports MCP, and this is truly a happy day in my life. (I’m not joking!)
Two things I’d like to offer:
- I’ve attached a compilation of several of the evaluations I’ve done. There’s more if you’re curious about anything in particular. (Comparisons with Sana, Teams, etc., for example.)
- Give me a shout if you’d like us to set up a live session where I show how Klang has become an integrated part of what I call my JJ OS: the system supporting me from an enquiry to a proposal, preparation, delivery, feedback, evaluation and constant learning. It’s made me work more than I ever have, while NEVER having had as much fun as I’m having now. What a time to be alive.
(I’ll keep using another tool as backup, because transcription has become that important to me, but Klang is definitely my first choice from now on. And I’d have said that even if I weren’t an enthusiastic investor in one of Sweden’s sharpest AI companies ;)

Alltså har själva kvaliteten varit en punkt som jag har utvärderat grundligt och kontinuerligt. Men det har också blivit allt viktigare med integrationer, så att resultatet av transkriptionen kan samverka med resten av mina verktyg på ett vettigt sätt.

Dags att påminna mig själv om ett hackers mindset. Dags att låta en AI hjälpa till och bygga ett pyttelitet Gmail-tillägg (ett Apps Script). Nu kan jag öppna ett mail, klicka en knapp, få fram mailets riktiga id, lämna över till min AI och den läser exakt rätt tråd. Fem minuter, problem löst.\n\nAvståndet mellan användare och utvecklare har aldrig varit mindre. \n\n(Är det här något du skulle ha nytta av? Säg till, så paketerar teamet och jag ihop det i helgen. Jag ska ändå fila till UX, så kan lika väl göra en generisk variant - men bara om intresse finns)",

Building the motorway, or painting the sign?
2026-06-03 · Joakim Jardenberg. English translation by AI. Original wording preserved. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
So the Moderates have visited AI Sweden and shared their views on AI and Sweden’s future. I’m disappointed, not just by what was said and what wasn’t, but also by their not even wanting to send their party leader. A quotation from the analysis: “ETR (Centre Party) had concrete figures, specific mechanisms and an infrastructure mindset that essentially enables the 15 points. Rosencrantz (Moderates) has visions and general conditions. ETR builds the motorway. Rosencrantz paints the ‘Silicon Valhalla’ sign at the entrance. If I had 15 minutes with Rosencrantz, I’d ask just one question: ‘You want a fast track for the 16-year-old programmer from abroad. Why not for the 35-year-old engineer already living in Tensta who has waited 18 months to have their degree recognised?’ The answer would reveal whether this is a blind spot or a deliberate priority.”

Citat från sammanställningen: \n”ETR (c) hade konkreta siffror, specifika mekanismer och ett infrastrukturtänk som i princip möjliggör de 15 punkterna. Rosencrantz (m) har visioner och allmänna villkor. ETR bygger motorvägen. Rosencrantz målar skylten 'Silicon Valhalla' vid infarten. Om jag fick 15 minuter med Rosencrantz skulle jag ställa en enda fråga: 'Du vill ha snabbspår för den 16-åriga programmeraren från utlandet. Varför inte för den 35-åriga civilingenjören som redan bor i Tensta och väntat 18 månader på att få sin examen validerad?'

Klang keeps excelling, and keeps being wonderfully generous and open-handed.
Yesterday there was a party leaders’ debate on SVT, and as usual you can watch the whole debate afterwards. You can watch video highlights, vote for who “won”, share and comment. You can read a lot of opinion-makers offering their opinions, etc. Same same, since the 1800s.
But in 2026, you should actually be able to dig properly into the material yourself. Ask your own question. Explore. Go deep. Follow up, even from one debate to the next. And Klang sorts that out for you. Free. Hats off.

2026-04-28 · Joakim Jardenberg. Original in English. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
Hörni. Five years ago, I walked into a small team called Volvo Group Strategy. This week, I walk out from the huge Volvo Trucks community, where I've spent most of my time on everyday AI adoption: real people, real work, real change. Real value.
I'm a Mintzberg guy. The whole thesis of ”Crafting Strategy” is that visionary thinking and boots-on-the-ground work aren't two different jobs. They're one continuous craft. Five years let me walk that line end to end. Not everyone gets to do that. I’m so grateful.
It's been an incredible learning experience. For the people I worked with, I hope. For me, without question. I learned more than I taught - by a lot. And stepping back from Volvo, from any single client: I have never worked this much in my life. I have also never had this much fun. What a time to be alive!
Calvin said it better than I ever could: ”It's a magical world, ol' buddy. Let's go exploring.”
So that's what I'm doing. AI in mind, sled in hand.
// JJ
P.S. And to all my amazing colleagues at the Volvo Group, you know where to find me if you want to stay in touch. I'd love that.

What was actually said matters.

Folks. It’s 2026, and children’s most important conversations with social services are still being documented as a few bullet points in a notebook.
Uppdrag Granskning put the spotlight on this in today’s episode (watch it on SVT Play), and the minister for social affairs agreed without hesitation: it’s a major problem. The new Social Services Act strengthens the requirements around the child’s perspective and parties’ access to information. Everyone involved should be able to see exactly what was said. And yet we continue to accept life-changing decisions being made on the basis of notes from memory.
This isn’t a privacy question. It’s a question of legal certainty. Of the child’s perspective. Of “how the hell can we still be doing this?”
(and from my side, this is no criticism of individual social workers. My daughter-in-law is one, and I know exactly what their situation looks like. My criticism is directed at the system.)
But the solution already exists. It’s legal. It’s been examined. IMY has just released its report “Transcription within social services”, in a project with Kalmar Municipality, and the conclusions are crystal clear:
✅ A legal basis exists (Article 6.1 c and e of GDPR) ✅ There is support for processing sensitive personal data (Article 9.2 h) ✅ It isn’t automated decision-making, as long as the caseworker reviews it ✅ With the right safeguards (encryption, access controls, deletion), it is both safe and effective
The legal position is clear. The technology exists. What’s missing is the will?
The minister says the evaluation of the new Social Services Act is imminent. Documentation is at the top of the agenda.
The answer already exists, and we have to stop accepting the unacceptable.
Usual caveat: I’m an investor in Klang.ai, which builds exactly this kind of solution for Swedish organisations. But I’d have said this anyway. When I see that the technology exists, the legality has been examined, and children still risk being misquoted in life-changing decisions... then it’s not “interesting to discuss”. It’s time to act.

Det är 2026, och inom socialtjänsten dokumenteras barnens viktigaste samtal fortfarande med några punkter i ett kollegieblock. \n\nUppdrag Granskning satte sökarljus på det i dagens avsnitt (se det på svtplay), och socialministern höll med utan omsvep: det är ett stort problem. Den nya socialtjänstlagen skärper kraven på barnperspektiv och partsinsyn. Alla inblandade ska kunna se exakt vad som har sagts. Och ändå fortsätter vi att acceptera att livsavgörande beslut fattas utifrån minnesanteckningar.\n\nDet här är inte en integritetsfråga. Det är en rättssäkerhetsfråga. En barnperspektivsfråga.

Tekniken finns. Det som saknas är vilja?\n\nSocialministern säger att utvärderingen av den nya socialtjänstlagen är nära förestående. Dokumentation står högst på agendan.\n\nSvaret finns redan, och vi måste sluta acceptera det oacceptabla.\n\nSedvanlig brasklapp: jag är investerare i Klang.ai, som bygger exakt den här typen av lösning för svenska verksamheter. Men jag hade sagt det här ändå.

Tilda is called Shiftic now. And it’s more than a new name.
When I came in as an investor, it was because Bella, Marcus and Sveinung had taken on the hardest thing there is: making change actually stick and live in people, rather than merely survive in hopeful plans and empty PowerPoint slides.
In my work, I often break it down into “four jobs” that need doing. Organisations run on autopilot in job 1 and never get the breathing room to do jobs 2, 3 and 4. Not out of laziness. They’re driven by short-term performance demands, and they lack the systems and methods to make that much-needed change.
That’s what Shiftic is. The system for driving change until it sticks. The new name says it plainly: this is about shifts. Behaviour that changes. For real.
I recently held a little webinar with Tilda about precisely “the four jobs”. If you’d like to hear more about how it works, or simply talk about how you could work with this in your organisation, get in touch with them (or me, of course).
... and yes, I’m an investor, but I’d have said all of this anyway <3

Hörni, I built a prompt I call The Socratic Sous Vide. Try it. It's a different kind of AI conversation.
But this post isn't really about that prompt. It's about where it lives.
I just launched an MVP called Prompt Pantry. The idea is simple: most people treat prompts like a library. Find the right one, copy-paste, done. Frozen dinners.
I wanted a kitchen instead.
A place where you stock reusable ingredients (who should the AI be, what's the context, what voice, what format, what boundaries), combine them into recipes, taste and adjust, and share what works with others.
Five shelves. Five questions. That's the whole framework.
The Socratic Sous Vide is one recipe. The Community Cookbook is where anyone can publish theirs. Fork it, remix it, make it your own.
Why a kitchen and not a library? Because a library gives you answers. A kitchen teaches you to cook. And as AI gets more capable, the bottleneck isn't the technology. It's whether you know what you're trying to make before you turn on the stove.
It's an MVP. Rough edges and all. But the pantry is open. Let's get cookin'

It's about where it lives.\n\nI just launched an MVP called Prompt Pantry. The idea is simple: most people treat prompts like a library. Find the right one, copy-paste, done. Frozen dinners.\n\nI wanted a kitchen instead.\n\nA place where you stock reusable ingredients (who should the AI be, what's the context, what voice, what format, what boundaries), combine them into recipes, taste and adjust, and share what works with others.\n\nFive shelves. Five questions. That's the whole framework.\n\nThe Socratic Sous Vide is one recipe. The Community Cookbook is where anyone can publish theirs. Fork it, remix it, make it your own.\n\nWhy a kitchen and not a library? Because a library gives you answers. A kitchen teaches you to cook. And as AI gets more capable, the bottleneck isn't the technology. It's whether you know what you're trying to make before you turn on the stove.\n\nIt's an MVP. Rough edges and all. But the pantry is open. Let's get cookin'",

An AI that tells me how I could do better.
2026-03-21 · Joakim Jardenberg. Original in English. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
I've taken on a new habit. Whenever my sessions are recorded (almost all of them are), I cut out my parts, upload them to Gemini, and ask for honest, constructive feedback.
- The response I get isn't based on a transcript only, but on the actual video. - It isn't overly friendly or ”nice”, it actually gives me valid advice. - It keeps evolving over time, as I tweak my prompts, and the services get better. - It isn't fleeing and lost in the moment, it's something that I keep, and process back to my ”JJ learning OS”.
It's such an amazing gift! (as all solid feedback is)
To show what it looks like, I'll start with a few points of improvement I got, and the rest is in the comments.
""" It takes a true lifelong learner to record themselves, hand over the tape, and ask for a teardown. Since your goal is to ”science the shit out of it” and continuously evolve your learning operating system, I'm going to give it to you straight. Here is a breakdown of your presentation:
Where to Optimize (Constructive Feedback)
1. Tame the "Right?" Reflex
The Observation: You have a verbal tic where you frequently end your sentences with "right?" or "right, so..." to seek subconscious agreement or buy yourself a millisecond to transition to the next thought.
The Fix: This is a common habit for empathetic speakers who want to ensure their audience is following along. In a virtual setting, though, it can start to feel like a metronome. Practice replacing the "right?" with a hard pause. Silence is powerful. Let the profound things you say (like the Kattis story) breathe for a second before moving on.
2. Manage "Screen-Share Whiplash"
The Observation: The first half of your presentation features gorgeous, visually calm, storybook-style slides. Then, you transition into live screen shares of your browser tabs, a dense 8-page PDF report, and your AI workspaces. The cognitive load for the audience spikes drastically. Scrolling quickly through a text-heavy PDF on a Zoom screen is tough for attendees to process in real time.
The Fix: When showing your actual tools, abstract the density. Instead of scrolling through the PDF, create one slide that pulls the core metrics (e.g., the 6 AI agents, 18 files processed) and use the live PDF just as a quick visual prop, or send it purely as a follow-up resource. Guide the audience's eyes exactly where you want them to look when sharing complex dashboards.

Integration as a national speciality, and 14 other points that try to turn around the current, horrible conversation about “how many immigrants can Sweden cope with?” Like Troed Troedson, I think the question is entirely wrong. The inspiration for this site came from a Facebook post in which he wrote: “Parliamentary parties! Hold a press conference each, with 15 points that make people’s journeys easier rather than the opposite. But hold a workshop first, so it doesn’t turn out as clumsy as it otherwise tends to.” Said and done. I workshopped it with my team and came up with 15 points that are, of course, very much mine. They lean heavily on the internet, digitalisation in general and AI in particular. And of course it’s all work in progress. Better together, as usual.

The iPhone launched in 2007 and went on sale in Sweden in 2008. Number of times I’ve been asked “how do I record a phone call on an iPhone?”: 6,330 (at least once a day ever since...)
The answer has always been “you can’t, really.” Until recently, when Apple made it possible in the Phone app, but in a pretty clumsy way. No Swedish transcription, for example... So it still hasn’t been useful.
Until now. Klang has cracked it. For incoming and outgoing calls. One simple action, and you don’t just get a perfect transcript: their excellent AI also summarises it and turns it into something actually useful. All within GDPR and Swedish law.
6,330 questions. One answer. Finally. Download the app now, and stop pestering me with that particular question ;)
// proud investor, but I’d have said this anyway (usual disclaimer applies 😉)
(and of course it works in Klang’s Android app too)

New technology, old lessons.
2026-02-15 · Joakim Jardenberg. Original in English. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
Hörni, everyone's talking about OpenClaw and MoltBook. Here's my take, looking both forward and back at lessons learned.
August 2011. Markets were crashing. Headlines screaming about intrinsic value, macro panic, the usual. I wrote a piece in a local magazine. Not about markets. About value itself. What is value, really? How do we constantly confuse "market value" with "real value"? How systems of value are social constructs layered on top of trust.
As part of that exploration, I mentioned Bitcoin. Not as salvation. Not as a get-rich scheme. As a fascinating experiment in value creation. I added a small aside: "If you're curious, Google Bitcoin. And if you have a small amount you can afford to lose, try it."
That was it. An invitation to try (ofc with the usual disclaimers). Some people did. 1,000 SEK. About $150. That bought roughly 11 BTC at $10-15 each. At today's prices, around 7 million SEK. At the peak, a few months ago, closer to 13 million. Those numbers are absurd.
But here's what matters more: the people who acted didn't just gain financially. They gained experience. They felt volatility in their stomach. They lived through 80% drawdowns. They understood decentralized consensus not as a concept, but as a lived reality. They had skin in the game. And the ones who didn't? They were left with opinions.
Important nuance: not all experiments pay off. Many go to zero. Skin in the game is not a lottery strategy. It's a learning strategy. The financial upside in Bitcoin was extraordinary. But the deeper ROI was epistemic. And that compounds far beyond one asset.
Now fast forward. Replace Bitcoin 2011 with OpenClaw 2026. Same chorus: "It's dangerous." "It creates security risks." Some of those critiques are right. Prompt injection, data exfiltration, governance questions. All real. But many of the loudest critics haven't installed it. Haven't run it. Haven't broken it. They're evaluating a living system from the outside. And when barriers to experimentation are this low, that becomes a problem.
Because there's a risk we don't talk about enough: the risk of NOT learning by doing.
In 2011, not buying Bitcoin cost nothing. In hindsight, it cost millions. But the real cost wasn't financial. It was experiential. You missed living inside the system while it evolved. Second-hand opinions, fear amplified by abstraction, strategic blindness. Every tech wave produces the same five groups: true believers, fraudsters, skeptics, late adopters, and armchair critics. The consistent advantage goes to curious pragmatists with small bets.
The 1,000 SEK principle: small enough to survive losing, large enough to feel something. This is not an argument for recklessness. But informed critique requires experience. Start small. Document what you learn. Reading about something is safe. Criticizing something is safe. Participating changes you.
In times of easy access to real experience, there's very little reason to hold strong opinions without it.

Hörni. In May 2022, when they opened for orders, I signed up for a Tesla Semi. Go to the site, enter a credit card, and done. Like buying socks on Amazon, except it was a truck. It was a joy.
Yep. Tesla has had plenty of problems getting the Semi to scale. That's not what this post is about. This is about what happens when someone redesigns the B2B buying experience from scratch. Or rather, rethinks it. ”But our customers don't want to buy expensive equipment like this.” Maybe. But what if some of them do?
I recorded the whole flow. Three minutes. Still thinking about it almost four years later.

Beyond saving five minutes.
2026-02-10 · Joakim Jardenberg. Original in English. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
Hörni. Everyone talks about AI saving time. Me too, ofc. I love to save time as much as anyone. Do the math: 5 minutes a day saves me 2,5 workdays a year.
But that's not where the real value is. The real value? Killing the tasks that make folks hate Mondays. Every boring, repetitive, monkey-work task you remove with AI doesn't just save minutes. It increases well-being. Job satisfaction. Energy for the work that actually matters.
That's why I work with ”The Pain Killer Sprint”: a 3-week format where a team picks ONE hated task and murders it with AI. Week 1: Name the pain. Week 2: One person builds the fix. Week 3: Demo, adopt, share. No budget needed. No permission to ask for. Just pick the task everyone collectively groans about and fix it. (And if you don't have a team? Your AI is your team. Invite them to the process, for real.)
An example slide is added below. Steal it, run it, improve it.
Aside: I have some 50 workshop formats in my toolbox, most with multiple versions. For example, the Pain Killer also comes as a 30-60-90-day sprint, complete with a pitch to your manager and a budget request.

Four prompts. Four laughs. Zero onboarding.
2026-02-09 · Joakim Jardenberg. Original in English. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
Hörni. My wife did it. My daughter-in-law did it. My work bestie at Volvo Trucks did it. And I did it, of course. The ChatGPT caricature trend. Four prompts, four laughs, zero onboarding required.
I know, I know. Silly viral trend. But I want to ”dra en lans” (go to bat) for these moments. Because underneath the fun, something interesting is happening.
Without anyone planning it, we all ended up in the same conversation. How did it interpret my job? Why did it pick THAT detail? What happens if I change the prompt? Sara got a "Data Queen" coffee mug. I got a little robot sidekick. Nelly's dog made the cut. Kattis got a clipboard that says "PLAN" (spot on, by the way).
This is what my principle #1 looks like in the wild: invite AI into everything you do. Not because every experiment is profound. Because every experiment can be a learning moment disguised as play. Homo Ludens at its finest. You learn things without trying to learn things. How context shapes output. How framing changes everything. How AI ”sees” you versus how you see yourself (and what that might mean for ChatGPT ads). That's prompting literacy, delivered through fun instead of a PowerPoint.
And principle #4: today's AI is the worst AI you'll ever have. Save these images. In twelve months, you'll look back and immediately see how far things moved. An accidental baseline, whether you planned it or not.
The sustainability cost? Roughly equivalent to a few seconds of Netflix streaming. The upside? Four people are now having real conversations about how AI actually works.
That's a trade I'll take any day 🤓

The work of improving the work.
2026-02-08 · Joakim Jardenberg. Original in English. Titles and image descriptions added by AI.
Hörni. I've worked in digital transformation for +33 years (yes, I'm that old), and ”job 2” has never been more fun, more exciting, or more value-creating. Every minute I spend on how to do the work gives me 100 minutes back. For every task. Every challenge. But let's break it down. We all have four jobs:
- Do the work - Improve how the work is done - Improve yourself - Develop the team
Most people are stuck on job 1. Understandably. The inbox is full, the deadlines are real, the meetings won't cancel themselves. But here's the thing: AI is a job 2 machine. This is exactly why my #1 principle is ”invite AI into everything you do.” Not because AI does your work for you. Because it forces you to think about how the work gets done. Every prompt is a tiny process improvement. Every workflow you build is compound interest on your future capacity. The people I see – everyday – making the biggest leaps right now aren't the ones with the fanciest tools. They're the ones who carved out time for job 2, 3, and 4. This little Kaizen-meets-Carl-Larsson reminder hangs on my virtual wall now. Maybe it should hang on yours, too. (Made with GPT Image 1.5 in ChatGPT. The aesthetic was very intentional 🤓)

I build things, work with people, and follow the questions that won’t leave me alone.
More than 90% of my work happens inside client organisations, helping people turn strategy, technology and AI into everyday practice. What I share here is a selection of my own explorations: tools, archives and experiments, built with AI.
In Thursday's Interactions Matter keynote, I explored a progression: discovering agency, moving from prompts to conversation, learning to work as a team, and growing through honest feedback.
Over the past 30 years, I’ve made 100+ investments in early-stage startups. Today I’m down to two: Klang and Shiftic. Two that matter deeply to me, and two I use myself.
Investor and user. Klang is built by its founders and team.
Transcription, summaries and search that make conversations easier to work with. In my own work, I haven’t found anything that handles Swedish better.
What matters to me goes beyond the product. Smaller languages and regional voices deserve serious engineering too. Klang is putting that into practice with open model weights, open-source tools and a Swedish dialect dataset that others can use and build on.
Debattkollen shows what that can mean in public life: making political debates searchable, with transcripts and links back to the source. More people can find out what was actually said, inspect it and join the conversation.
“Joakim is one of my biggest inspirations. Ever curious about the world, he pushes you to the highest of standards”
Investor and user. Shiftic is built by its founders and team.
A workspace for turning a change you want into behaviours people can practise, with plans, practical support and follow-up.
The gap between deciding that something should change and helping people actually do it runs through much of my work. Shiftic connects those intentions with the activities, materials and support people need.
If Shiftic takes hold inside organisations, I believe the human impact could be enormous: more people able to make worthwhile changes, with clearer expectations, better support and room to learn. Less energy lost between agreeing on a change and finding a way to make it happen.
“Joakim seems to have an incurable curiosity about technology, and it’s contagious. There is no one (honestly) who gets me to broaden my horizons and discover exciting new possibilities with technology quite like he does. He also challenges what needs challenging to make sure the business is ready for the future, creates value and has meaning. He does this even when it’s uncomfortable, but always with a great deal of care and generosity. I’m very grateful to have Jocke with us on our journey. Jocke, Mr Tough Love for entrepreneurs.”

About
Still here. Still curious. More relevant than ever.
I’m Joakim Jardenberg. Most people call me JJ.
I’ve been building things with the internet since 1993. Today I work with leaders and teams around the world, helping them turn the possibilities of AI into something useful in their everyday work.
That takes me between strategy, hands-on implementation and the patient business of helping people change how they work. I’m an advisor, facilitator, speaker, builder and investor. What joins those roles is curiosity about what people could do next, and a willingness to get involved.
It started with making things
In 1993, I was handcrafting HTML and helping people find their way onto the web through Mackmeckarna in Malmö. We ran some of Sweden’s earliest web education, learning alongside librarians, architects and archaeologists. Each new website could give us a different idea of what this thing might become.
At Aftonbladet in the early web years, I worked with a small team to turn the paper’s text-TV news into an automatically updated web news flow.
For the 1994 Swedish election, my colleagues and I helped newspapers get connected to receive results by email. Much of my own work was at Aftonbladet, receiving and processing those results. Once people had the tools, they started finding other uses for them. I still recognise that moment today: someone tries a thing, sees what it makes possible, and begins asking a bigger question.
That curiosity took me through Helsingborgs Dagblad, into running Mindpark, and later into public service as Helsingborg’s Head of Internet. It also took me around the world: speaking, teaching, advising and working alongside people in very different organisations.
Over the years, I’ve worked with companies including Google, Lufthansa, Volvo Group and Atlas Copco, as well as founders, smaller teams and public institutions. The setting changes, and so does what people need from me. Sometimes it’s a question that opens up a room. Sometimes it’s staying with a team long enough for a new way of working to take hold.
Some people call me a CEO whisperer. I like that description. A leader needs somewhere to think aloud, ask the unfinished question and have an assumption challenged. I bring experience, curiosity and a willingness to say what I see. We work out what matters and what to do about it.
Those conversations are most useful when I also spend time with the people expected to make change happen. I want to know what their work looks like, what helps and what gets in the way. What I learn with them belongs back in the leadership conversation. Strategy, implementation and adoption need to keep talking to each other.
Big change, many small moves
This is where much of my work lives today. We take something people actually need to do and try a different way of doing it. A colleague finds a useful application for AI, shares it, and someone else takes it further. We make time to practise, compare experiences and adjust. Small changes can travel a long way when people help each other.
Leadership matters here: giving direction, making room for experiments, removing obstacles and noticing what deserves to grow. I call my approach Guided Emergence, drawing on Henry Mintzberg’s thinking about how strategy is crafted through experience. We need enough direction to move together and enough openness to learn something we didn’t plan for.
That is why I work with sustained learning journeys, hands-on workshops and the everyday questions that follow them. I want people to leave more able to act, with the confidence and support to keep going. Their next attempt is part of the work too.
Family, equal human worth and the world younger people inherit matter deeply to me. So do play, generosity and a good conversation. I want technology to give more people the chance to understand, create and contribute. That matters in a global company, and it matters when one person discovers they can do something they thought was beyond them.
These days, AI lets me turn more of that curiosity into things people can use. I build tools, open up archives and explore ideas in public. Much of my work happens inside client organisations; what you see on this site is a selection. Building keeps me close to the possibilities, the awkward details and the surprises.
Back in 1993, I made websites by writing HTML by hand. This one has grown through conversation with AI. After all these years, I can still sit here and be amazed by what we can do.
I have never worked as much as I do today, and I have never had this much fun. What a time to be alive.
In The next 5,000 days of the web, Kevin Kelly looked at the abundance the web had brought us and observed that it “is amazing, and we're not amazed.”
I hate to argue with Master Kevin Kelly but he was wrong. I am amazed.
Over the past 30 years, I’ve made 100+ investments in early-stage startups. Today I’m down to two: Klang and Shiftic. Two that matter deeply to me, and two I use myself.
Investor and user. Klang is built by its founders and team.
Transcription, summaries and search that make conversations easier to work with. In my own work, I haven’t found anything that handles Swedish better.
What matters to me goes beyond the product. Smaller languages and regional voices deserve serious engineering too. Klang is putting that into practice with open model weights, open-source tools and a Swedish dialect dataset that others can use and build on.
Debattkollen shows what that can mean in public life: making political debates searchable, with transcripts and links back to the source. More people can find out what was actually said, inspect it and join the conversation.
“Joakim is one of my biggest inspirations. Ever curious about the world, he pushes you to the highest of standards”
Investor and user. Shiftic is built by its founders and team.
A workspace for turning a change you want into behaviours people can practise, with plans, practical support and follow-up.
The gap between deciding that something should change and helping people actually do it runs through much of my work. Shiftic connects those intentions with the activities, materials and support people need.
If Shiftic takes hold inside organisations, I believe the human impact could be enormous: more people able to make worthwhile changes, with clearer expectations, better support and room to learn. Less energy lost between agreeing on a change and finding a way to make it happen.
“Joakim seems to have an incurable curiosity about technology, and it’s contagious. There is no one (honestly) who gets me to broaden my horizons and discover exciting new possibilities with technology quite like he does. He also challenges what needs challenging to make sure the business is ready for the future, creates value and has meaning. He does this even when it’s uncomfortable, but always with a great deal of care and generosity. I’m very grateful to have Jocke with us on our journey. Jocke, Mr Tough Love for entrepreneurs.”

How this was made
AI + JJ.
AI does substantial work here. I help shape what we make, question it and decide what deserves to go out into the world.
This site grew from a review of the work, the public projects and the thinking behind them. The research, writing, design exploration and implementation happen in our AI collaboration. GitHub holds the source; Lovable provides the site’s platform.
The photographs are real. Project images come from their original public sites. New editorial explanations are credited as AI + JJ. Original human work and other people’s ideas keep their own attribution.
A site that can change its mind
The Now notebook is drawn from recent work and conversations. It is edited for public use, dated, and kept separate from private source material. A developing thought should remain a developing thought.
The project catalogue and idea pages have a maintained content structure. They can change as the work changes, without rebuilding the site around a new set of slogans.
Sources and corrections
My public profile is the fuller, sourced account of my background and preferences. Intellectual origins and collaborator credits appear beside the relevant work.
If something is wrong or missing, tell me what you found. An accurate account matters more than a tidy one.

For your AI
Bring some context into the conversation.
Your AI can read my public profile: how I work, what matters to me, and the sources behind it. Use the interface that suits you.
Start with something useful
Before we work together, ask your AI what might help us collaborate well. Or use it to explore an idea you found here. You don’t need to read a protocol specification first.
This site, in your AI
The same public MCP also provides the published pages on this site, including every Now edition and Note, with original languages and image descriptions. Ask it to list the collection, search a question, then read the relevant page. Sources, dates and AI credits travel with the content.
If your AI application supports remote MCP servers, add the endpoint below through its connector or MCP settings. Exact steps and availability differ between applications.
Open the setup guide and choose the instructions for your application.
Add the endpoint. This is a public, read-only source of context.
Ask the first question above, starting with the short version and relevant sections.
Check the answer’s source links and ask a follow-up.
The server provides the profile, individual sections, sources and version information, plus search and reading tools for the published jardenberg.com collection. It gives access to the public material I have selected, not my private workspace or conversations. It cannot act or make commitments on my behalf.
Some clients have access limitations. The setup guide records those limitations and links the current official client instructions. If a connection fails, the readable profile and downloads remain useful alternatives.
The idea behind it
PPCP is a draft Public Personal Context Protocol. It explores how people can carry a sourced, maintainable public account of themselves into different AI systems. The draft protocol and my own profile are separate parts of that work.

Four Guiding Principles
A memorable starting point for bringing AI into everyday work while keeping human judgment in view.
These principles give people a shared starting point. Their usefulness comes from trying them on real work and discussing the tensions they reveal.
The foundation comes from Ethan Mollick's Co-Intelligence. The teaching wording and examples here are my adaptation, developed through practice.
In September 2026 I added a refinement to the third principle: how you address AI shapes the interaction. Context, expectations and language influence what happens; this does not mean every conversation is used to train the underlying model.
I am also exploring what being the human in the loop requires when AI can act: where judgment belongs, how authority is bounded and how we learn from consequences. That is work in progress, alongside the established four principles.
Put it to work
01
Invite AI into everything you do
Explore where it could help with thinking, making, learning and everyday tasks. Invitation still calls for judgment about the task and its context.
02
Be the human in the loop
Keep responsibility for how AI is used, the judgments that matter and the process around delegated work.
03
Treat AI like a human, but never forget it is not
Give context and feedback as you would to a colleague, while keeping its limitations in view. How you address it shapes the interaction.
04
The AI you have today is the worst AI you will ever have
A reason to keep learning and revisit what is possible, not a promise that every release or answer will improve.
Where this comes from
Adapted by JJ from Ethan Mollick's Co-Intelligence. The September refinement also draws on Nicklas Berild Lundblad's tulpa essay. Co-existence extensions remain working proposals.

The Four Jobs
Do the work. Improve the work. Grow yourself. Develop others.
Most of us can describe the work waiting for us today. It is often harder to protect time for changing how that work happens, developing our own capability or helping someone else grow.
The Four Jobs makes those different kinds of contribution visible. AI can have a role in all four. A useful question is where it creates room for better work, and what we choose to do with that room.
Try mapping a real week. Where did the attention go? Which job keeps getting postponed? The point is to examine your own situation, not to measure everyone against an invented ideal percentage.
Put it to work
01
Do the work
Deliver the task, make the decision and meet the commitment in front of you.
02
Improve the work
Change the process, remove friction or build something that makes the next attempt better.
03
Grow yourself
Develop the knowledge, judgment and capability you will need next.
04
Develop others
Help colleagues learn, share useful practice and strengthen the team's ability to act.

Guided Emergence
Set direction, make room for people to try things, and let what they learn change the next decision.
I find strategy most useful when it stays in contact with the people doing the work. They encounter the awkward details, find the useful shortcuts, and discover possibilities that were difficult to see from a planning meeting.
Guided Emergence is how I try to keep that contact alive. Set a direction and make the important boundaries clear. Give people room, authority and resources to explore. Pay attention to what happens. Then use what you learn to decide what deserves more support, what needs changing and what should stop.
Strategy, implementation and adoption belong in that same conversation. Each gives the others something to work with.
Imagine a team preparing for customer conversations. Information is scattered, and someone suggests an AI assistant. First agree what better preparation would mean: useful questions, fewer missed commitments, less hunting for information. Decide what the assistant can access and how the team will notice a poor result.
Give a few people time to try it on real work. Perhaps it produces a useful briefing. Perhaps it reveals that nobody agrees which records are current. Either finding can change the next move: extend the experiment, improve the information or stop. This is a hypothetical example, not a claim about a client result.
The practical test is whether learning can influence decisions. There should be a route from an experiment to a change in direction, resources or working practice.
Put it to work
01
Guiding principles
Establish direction and boundaries that help people make decisions without scripting every action.
02
Experimentation
Make room to try something on real work and learn from what happens.
03
Decentralized decisions
Give people meaningful authority close to the work.
04
Feedback and learning
Listen to colleagues, customers and users, then let their experience change the next move.
05
Resources for exploration
Reserve actual time and support for exploration.
06
Scaling what works
Look for evidence before helping more people adopt a promising practice.
07
Adaptive strategy
Revisit direction, commitments and priorities as understanding improves.
08
Cross-functional collaboration
Bring together people who see different parts of the problem.
09
Enabling technology
Use tools to make the work, evidence and collaboration easier.
Where this comes from
JJ's formulation, developed in 2023 and informed by Henry Mintzberg's Crafting Strategy. This account does not claim exclusive coinage of the term.

"text": "All ideas\n\nIdeas / In practice\n\nGuided Emergence\n\nSet direction, make room for people to try things, and let what they learn change the next decision.\n\nI find strategy most useful when it stays in contact with the people doing the work. They encounter the awkward details, find the useful shortcuts, and discover possibilities that were difficult to see from a planning meeting.\n\nGuided Emergence is how I try to keep that contact alive. Set a direction and make the important boundaries clear. Give people room, authority and resources to explore. Pay attention to what happens. Then use what you learn to decide what deserves more support, what needs changing and what should stop.\n\nStrategy, implementation and adoption belong in that same conversation. Each gives the others something to work with.\n\nImagine a team preparing for customer conversations. Information is scattered, and someone suggests an AI assistant. First agree what better preparation would mean: useful questions, fewer missed commitments, less hunting for information. Decide what the assistant can access and how the team will notice a poor result.\n\nGive a few people time to try it on real work. Perhaps it produces a useful briefing.

Interface Sovereignty
Let services meet a person in the interface they choose, with useful context and control intact.
I want my sources, services and tools to come to an interface that fits how I think and work. Moving between products should not mean starting the explanation of my life and my task from zero every time.
That can involve text, voice, images, files, APIs or MCP. The important question is whether the person gains continuity and practical agency.
There are real design questions here. A convenient interface can hide disagreement between sources, conceal the context of an action or make it harder to see what actually happened.
This is a working thesis and a research question. A conversational interface that suits me is not automatically the right interface for everyone.
Put it to work
01
Keep context useful
Preserve continuity across tasks and devices without making the person repeat everything.
02
Keep sources reachable
Let people inspect the original material and notice when accounts disagree.
03
Keep actions legible
Distinguish suggestions, authorization, attempts and completed actions.
04
Keep choice real
Make it possible to correct, replace or leave the interpreting layer.
Where this comes from
JJ's chosen-interface thesis, expressed in 2026. The design questions are an AI + JJ working interpretation, not a claim of legal sovereignty or universal accessibility.

Six Value Vectors
Look for AI's value in decisions, energy, memory, risk, development and access, as well as time saved.
Saving time can matter. It also leaves some important questions unanswered: did the decision improve, did a person gain confidence, or could someone finally participate in work that had been difficult to access?
The Six Value Vectors give a team several places to look for value. They help make a conversation about AI more specific: what should change here, for whom, and how would we know?
Choose evidence that fits the work. A faster decision is not automatically a better decision; a lower workload is not useful if the quality disappears. The vectors are lenses for inquiry, not a guarantee of return.
Earlier material calls this the Five Value Vectors. Access and Inclusion was added in July 2026. Five Ways AI Changes Work is a different framework.
Put it to work
01
Decision velocity and quality
Help people reach timely decisions with better information and clearer reasoning.
02
Cognitive capacity and wellbeing
Reduce avoidable mental effort and make room for work that needs attention.
03
Organizational memory and knowledge activation
Make accumulated knowledge easier to find, connect and use.
04
Proactive compliance and risk mitigation
Notice relevant obligations, inconsistencies and emerging risks earlier.
05
Talent lifecycle transformation
Support people as they learn, develop, contribute and share what they know.
06
Access and inclusion
Change who gets to participate and act, including across language, confidence and capability barriers.

Stacked Principles
Several commitments can be genuine. The decision is which one takes precedence here, and why.
I can value the quality of a service and also care about what my spending helps enable. Usually one principle guides the choice. At a particular boundary, another becomes more important.
Stacked Principles gives me a way to explain that change in priority. It is contextual judgment, with reasons attached. The other commitment has not stopped mattering.
The stack is neither a permanent numerical ranking nor a flat list of values. Scale, consequences, available alternatives and the connection between an action and its effects all matter.
My choice for myself is also different from asking everybody else to make the same choice. A public campaign has different stakes and needs a different evidential basis.
Put it to work
01
Name the ordinary principle
What would normally guide this decision?
02
Identify the boundary
What consequence or new evidence makes another commitment decisive?
03
Give the reason
Why does that priority make sense here, considering scale and alternatives?
04
Keep the decision revisable
What could change the conclusion, and would you reason similarly in a comparable case?
Where this comes from
Grounded in JJ's own reasoning and an AI-assisted explanation he endorsed. The practical questions are an editorial operationalization, not verbatim quotations or a fixed constitution.

Notes / July 2026
Thinking out loud.
Short posts, useful discoveries and things I’m still figuring out. A little closer to the moment.
English translations by AI. Original wording is preserved. Included images are unchanged; source links keep the rest in reach. For the slower reflection, read Now
When are we going to rebel against the lousy quality of services that “have one job”?\n\nFor example: when a browser extension can easily use ChatGPT to read my appointment on 1177.se and create an event in my calendar, how much longer should 1177 get away with…
While we wait for the next #ensakidag episode, have a listen to the conversation between Mats and me. It’s about my favourite subject: AI in everyday life. Available wherever you get your podcasts.\n(and as usual, jump in if I’ve missed or misunderstood…
My AI team has just had another pay rise. Up 20% in five months.\n\nAnd I’m fairly sure the calculation still misses quite a few costs.\n\nEven so, this is unquestionably one of the best investments I make every month. Even at ten times the cost, the ROI would…
#ensakidag 504: 1X’s new robot hands, and the human behind the curtain\n\nA robot pouring tea and building LEGO. Cool, sure. But that isn’t why I’m recording this.\n\n1X showed new hands for its home robot NEO: 25 degrees of freedom, tendon-driven (the fingers…
Always be building.\n\nMessage from my son: “Could we add a table-captain feature to the website? Like pinning a little person at the table as the table captain?”\n\nMe: 🫡\n\n#vicecodingislife
#ensakidag 503: China, fintech patents and the old maps we carry in our luggage\n\nChina has overtaken the US in fintech patents. True? Yes. The whole truth? Not even close.\n\nI read the headline this morning and immediately felt it was too easy to swallow. So…
#ensakidag 502: Summer suggestions, five books and five podcasts (with a bonus)\nFive minutes a day won’t be enough this summer. So here’s the list I actually use to prepare my clients: a collection of books and podcasts.\n\nThe books take a journey from systems…
#ensakidag 501: AI pluralism, and a conversation with Olof Palme\n\nToday I called Olof Palme. For real, sort of.\n\nSomeone in the AI Party (whose politics I hardly share) has vibe-coded a site: turn “Ring Olof Palme” into one word and move the dot into the…
Once upon a time, Lovable received a lot of justified criticism for generating redundant and poor-quality code. That still happens sometimes. But generally, I think we’re now at the point where it produces better frontend code than most developers and…
#ensakidag 500: half a thousand episodes later, the next journey begins\n\n... about nine years of thinking and 500 episodes becoming raw material for AI, new ideas and new services. About entering a time when the boundary between user and developer is…

Today I heard myself say: we need to give employees the gift of ”Copilot tummy time”. Afterward, I actually think it's brilliant. I'm going to hold on to that.
I’ll just drop this (imperfect picture) here. The ecosystem is constantly evolving, and my human brain has long since seen its capabilities outnumbered, for lack of a better term, by my AI brain. With every new connection, every iteration that reduces…
If you’ve had a meeting with me in the past three years, you know I’ve been accompanied by a small army of assistants taking notes for me.\n\nThe foundation for those notes is, naturally, getting the best possible transcription: a written record of what’s said…
Do you need to feel in control too? Read on.\n\nWhen you connect AI to your own tools (via MCP, for example), little irritations quickly appear. One of mine: I couldn’t give my agents and assistants a link to a particular email thread in a way they could…

I’ve updated the site with my 15 points for a better Sweden again. It now also includes the party-leader interviews focused on AI and technology that AI Sweden hosts on its podcast. First up, ETR for the Centre Party. My verdict: decent and hopeful. And as…
Klang keeps excelling, and keeps being wonderfully generous and open-handed.\n\nYesterday there was a party leaders’ debate on SVT, and as usual you can watch the whole debate afterwards. You can watch video highlights, vote for who “won”, share and comment.…
Our friends at AI Sweden are releasing an excellent report on leadership and AI, in this year of our Lord 2026. But it only seems to exist as a webpage, with fancy effects and built in a way that doesn’t even make it suitable for printing as a PDF... So. If…
Hörni. Five years ago, I walked into a small team called Volvo Group Strategy. This week, I walk out from the huge Volvo Trucks community, where I've spent most of my time on everyday AI adoption: real people, real work, real change. Real value.\n\nI'm a…
Folks. It’s 2026, and children’s most important conversations with social services are still being documented as a few bullet points in a notebook.\n\nUppdrag Granskning put the spotlight on this in today’s episode (watch it on SVT Play), and the minister for…

Now
What I’m actually thinking about.
A developing question, something made or learned, and room for what I haven’t figured out yet.
In Thursday's Interactions Matter keynote, I explored a progression: discovering agency, moving from prompts to conversation, learning to work as a team, and growing through honest feedback.
An AI doesn't have to experience the conversation the way I do for that interaction to matter to me. I can still get frustrated, have an assumption challenged, or discover something I missed. What changes in my thinking? What do I do differently afterwards?
That brings expectations and responsibility into the conversation too. Have I made clear what I want? Am I prepared to hear something uncomfortable? Calling it a relationship doesn't make the machine human. It does give me a reason to examine how I behave in it.
What others are building: pocket agents
I'm very much not alone in enjoying Meta Muse. Manus Cue is expanding what personal agents can take on, including shared work between agents with their own computers and communication channels. Grok Bot makes me smile. And Dots is becoming the workhorse for me, my wife, my mother-in-law and many of my clients.
What I'm watching is how these pocket agents become part of ordinary life. They can carry context forward, pick up unfinished work and reach back to us. We start developing habits together: what to hand over, how to ask, when to step in.
The serious question is how to make that relationship deserve our trust. Warmth and personality help us get started. Clear permissions, useful resistance, visible mistakes and the ability to change direction matter when the agent can act.
Microsoft's Autopilot announcement points in the same direction. I will be very sad if it doesn't bring back Clippy.
A list of links is a beginning
This week we published UXresurser, turning resource lists from my UX studies into a public learning library. It now has 97 resource records, with summaries, search, cross-references and learning routes.
The starting point was practical: help me find the material that answers the question I have, and give me a useful way into it. The original works and our editorial summaries remain distinct. You can follow the sources yourself, or connect an AI through the public MCP.
Building it also means applying what I'm learning. We've improved visible links, controls and small text. Actual screen-reader and user testing remain open. Passing automated checks is one piece of the work.
A signature isn't the whole answer
We've also brought implementation experience back into Verifiable MCP. The updated tools make an important distinction: verifying a signed response and confirming that the requested operation succeeded are separate checks. An error can be correctly signed too.
The public examples now include my personal context profile and the independent Hållbarhetsklivet demo, alongside the earlier archives and research sources. They have different relationships to the people who created, own or publish the material. Those distinctions need to travel with the information.
This is still experimental work, with specific verification checks and explicit limits. A signature can help establish where a response came from and whether it was altered. It cannot make every claim inside it true.

We start developing habits together: what to hand over, how to ask, when to step in.\n\nThe serious question is how to make that relationship deserve our trust. Warmth and personality help us get started. Clear permissions, useful resistance, visible mistakes and the ability to change direction matter when the agent can act.\n\nMicrosoft's Autopilot announcement points in the same direction. I will be very sad if it doesn't bring back Clippy.\n\nA list of links is a beginning\n\nThis week we published UXresurser, turning resource lists from my UX studies into a public learning library. It now has 97 resource records, with summaries, search, cross-references and learning routes.\n\nThe starting point was practical: help me find the material that answers the question I have, and give me a useful way into it. The original works and our editorial summaries remain distinct. You can follow the sources yourself, or connect an AI through the public MCP.\n\nBuilding it also means applying what I'm learning. We've improved visible links, controls and small text. Actual screen-reader and user testing remain open. Passing automated checks is one piece of the work.\n\nA signature isn't the whole answer\n\nWe've also brought implementation experience back into Verifiable MCP. The updated tools make an important distinction: verifying a signed response and confirming that the requested operation succeeded are separate checks. An error can be correctly signed too.\n\nThe public examples now include my personal context profile and the independent Hållbarhetsklivet demo, alongside the earlier archives and research sources. They have different relationships to the people who created, own or publish the material. Those distinctions need to travel with the information.\n\nThis is still experimental work, with specific verification checks and explicit limits. A signature can help establish where a response came from and whether it was altered. It cannot make every claim inside it true.\n\nAI + JJ. A dated editorial account of the work and thinking, with sources linked in the text.\n\nThe notebook\n\n4 October 2026From prompting to conversation27 September 2026Where does human judgment belong?",

These are full-text feeds, with original dates, source links, images and AI credits. New published material appears when the site is updated. Historical imports keep their original dates and go into the complete archive feeds, so the regular writing feeds do not suddenly fill with older posts. Choose the pace that suits you.
The exports are generated from the same published content as this site. They include public pages only. Linked archives and projects have their own collections; their contents are not silently copied here.
Bring your AI
The public, read-only MCP is at joakim.jardenberg.net/mcp. It provides my public profile and tools to list, search and read this site’s published material. Start with a search or a relevant page, then follow the sources.
Setup and a first question. Signed responses preserve the content, source, rights and AI credit. A signature establishes where a response came from and whether it changed, not whether every claim is true.
The 9 October 2026 inventory found 3,433 posts, including 608 attributed to other authors or imported collections. The archive marks original material as CC BY 2.5 Sweden, with third-party exceptions. Its historical writing and licence remain distinct from the current material here. It is not yet included in this site’s MCP search.
My own writing on this site is licensed Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0). You may copy, adapt and reuse it, including commercially. Credit Joakim Jardenberg, link the original and the licence, and identify changes. Preserve “AI + JJ” or the translation credit where it applies.
Other people’s quotations, recommendations, photographs, screenshots, logos and other third-party material retain their own rights. Their appearance here does not put them under this licence or imply endorsement of your reuse. Portrait photography is by Kristofer Samuelsson. Credits and intellectual origins stay beside the work.
Access is part of the work
The site supports keyboard navigation, a skip link, system light and dark appearance, reduced motion, readable page structure and text descriptions for images. The public reading pages and Swedish originals are available without JavaScript; search, filters, copy buttons and the booking embed use it. Direct booking links remain available.
Accessibility needs continued testing with people and assistive technology. If something gets in your way, tell me where and what happened. Alternative reading formats are linked above.
Made to be found
robots.txt allows all crawlers across the public site. The sitemap lists every reading page, including Swedish originals. Feeds are advertised in each page’s metadata. Host discovery links the public profile, MCP server card, feeds and collection. The MCP discovery file points to the existing server and its authoritative signing-key discovery.
Public reading pages permit full search snippets and large image previews. Search results and missing pages are excluded from indexing. Discovery conventions such as PPCP and llms.txt help supporting clients; they cannot guarantee that every AI system will find or index the site.
Discovery, including the experiments
The API catalogue follows RFC 9727 and links the OpenAPI description of our public, read-only endpoints. The existing backend serves these endpoints with the response types and cross-origin access browser clients need; it reads the same published collection. Start with the compact document catalogue, then fetch one complete document at a time.
We also publish two explicitly experimental interfaces: ARD v0.91 discovery, including example questions for the MCP and reading API, and agents.json v0.1.0, with three read-only flows. They describe existing capabilities. Adoption is still developing; a valid manifest does not guarantee that a particular agent or registry will discover it.
A known limit
On 9 October 2026, the hosting service blocked requests from the default Python urllib client. A descriptive User-Agent or an empty User-Agent worked in the checks. No login or API key is required. This hosting restriction is unresolved; access for every automated client is not yet guaranteed.

Fifteen proposals for a better Sweden, open to exploration and discussion.
What would we change if we took the possibility of a better Sweden seriously? Det Nya Sverige gathers fifteen proposals into a public site where the ideas can be read and considered together.
I wanted to give the proposals somewhere to live beyond a passing post. A place to examine an argument, move between ideas and decide what deserves a closer look.
These are proposals I am putting into the conversation. They should be read as a civic contribution, with room for disagreement and further work.
Make the thinking available
Publishing the proposals together makes their connections visible. It also gives a reader something specific to respond to: a proposition, its reasoning and the questions it raises.
The site is part of the work. Making an idea easier to inspect is a useful step towards finding out whether it holds up.

#ensakidag
Earlier thinking, new connections, and an archive you can explore with AI.
I started #ensakidag in 2017 because I needed to get out of my own head for a while. I had been deep in a large project in Palma, and talking to a camera became a way to think aloud with other people.
The format was simple: take one thing happening in technology or on the internet, explain why it matters, and ask what it might mean for us. In Swedish, usually in a few minutes. Occasionally I get carried away.
Those reflections became a record of what I was noticing, wondering about and sometimes getting wrong. When I returned to the project in 2026, I wanted to work with that history: find a thought again, follow a connection, see what had changed.
The archive started with a practical need
I wanted my AI assistants to have access to my earlier material. That was the starting point for the archive and its MCP connection. Then it made sense to give people a website through which to explore it too.
You can search the archive, read episode transcripts and follow related subjects. A compatible AI assistant can also retrieve the material. Original episodes sit alongside AI-produced summaries, connections and retrospective commentary.
A record of thinking, with its dates attached
Something I said years ago is a record of what I said then. A later AI assessment is another layer, with its own limitations. Both can be interesting without pretending they are the same thing.
For me, part of the pleasure is discovering something I had forgotten saying. Another part is seeing what someone else makes of it. A conversation can keep developing long after the recording ends.
A useful place to start
Episode 500 tells the story behind making the archive useful again. Or bring your own subject: find an earlier episode, look at the original material and ask which question is still worth exploring.

PPCP
A draft protocol for sharing public personal context with people and AI.
Every new AI conversation can begin with the same small problem: it knows a great deal about the world and very little about the person in front of it.
Public Personal Context Protocol is an open draft exploring how a person can publish context that is useful to both people and AI systems. The specification, schemas and examples give others something concrete to inspect and try.
My public profile is a reference implementation. It brings together how I work, what matters to me and how I want to be challenged, with readable pages, downloads and read-only MCP access.
Try it with a real question
Connect the public profile to a compatible AI assistant, then ask how to prepare for working with me. A useful answer should point back to the published material and keep my stated preferences distinct from the assistant's interpretation.
You can read the same context without connecting anything. The website and downloadable versions remain part of the project.
Keep ownership and interpretation visible
An approved profile is my account of myself. It is not independent proof of every claim, and an AI's later adaptation does not automatically become my new position.
PPCP remains an open draft. The point of making it public is to let people examine the proposal and learn from using it.

Prompt Pantry
Build prompts from reusable ingredients, then adapt them to the thing you actually want to do.
I like the pantry metaphor because the contents are there to be used. Prompt Pantry brings that idea to working with AI: gather useful ingredients, combine them, try the result and refine it.
The aim is to help you make a prompt that fits your work, while learning something about what makes the interaction useful.

Verifiable MCP
An experimental way for an AI client to check the origin and integrity of an MCP response.
When an AI retrieves something from an archive, I want the connection to the source to remain inspectable. Which server supplied it? Has the response changed? Does it contain someone's original words, or an AI's later interpretation?
Verifiable MCP is a working pattern for attaching a digital signature and provenance to an MCP response. The signed material includes declarations about the source, rights and freshness, so those declarations travel with the content being checked.
A valid signature can establish that the response matches what the signing server issued. The reader still needs to evaluate the source and the claim. Signing a statement does not make it true.
Keep the source and its labels together
The distinction between an original contribution and an AI-written response matters. So do the rights attached to each. The pattern places those labels inside the signed material, where changing them can be detected.
For my own archive, a check can establish what my server supplied. For an index of other people's publications, it establishes what the index supplied. It does not prove that the original publisher wrote or approved the index's representation.
Tried with different kinds of public knowledge
The public repository documents reference implementations for #ensakidag, the SSWC book and the RISE/AI Sweden connector. They bring different situations: my own material, contributions by many authors, and an index of third-party publications.
That variation is useful. A common verification pattern needs to preserve the differences between sources, authorship and rights. Each server's current implementation and scope still need their own check.
Something you can inspect and test
The repository contains the specification, Python and JavaScript verifiers, a conformance checklist and published test vectors. The tests include altered and invalid responses that a verifier must reject.
Start with the explanation, run the published examples, then examine a reference server or try the pattern with a corpus you operate. The useful feedback is what the test reveals, including where the implementation falls short.
An experimental pattern with a defined scope
The signature covers the server response. It does not certify the answer an AI later writes from it. A client also needs to perform verification; simply receiving signed metadata is not the same as checking it.
The specification remains experimental. It describes its trust assumptions and limits, and makes conformance something to test rather than a badge to assume.

Work with me
Bring the question you’re trying to answer.
We can start with a conversation, a room full of people, or a real piece of work. The useful format follows from what needs to change.
Conferences, leadership gatherings and teams opening a new conversation.
A shared starting point for a room that needs to think clearly about what AI changes.
We begin with the audience and the question the event needs to address. I shape the examples and argument around that context.
The format can include a keynote, demonstration, conversation or a combination. The useful question is what people should be able to understand or try afterwards.
Workshops & Intellectual Boot Camps
Teams ready to move from discussing AI to working with it together.
Bring actual work into the room and explore what becomes possible with AI.
Participants work with real questions, tasks and material. We make room for both practical exploration and discussion of what the experience means.
For leadership teams, an Intellectual Boot Camp gives more concentrated time to work through strategic, organizational and operational questions. Scope and follow-up are designed around the team.
Learning Journeys & Copilot Convoys
Leaders and teams who want adoption to develop over time, with support close to the work.
Sustained practice, shared experiments and a rhythm for learning from real work.
Regular sessions and smaller experiments give a group time to build capability, bring difficulties back and learn from one another.
The design can combine strategic conversations, a Convoy, informal AI-Fika and support between sessions. The rhythm should fit the work and help the organisation carry the learning forward.
Strategy & advisory work
Leadership teams making consequential choices about AI, working practices and organizational capability.
Connect leadership choices with what implementation and frontline experience are revealing.
We examine direction, priorities, assumptions and the conditions people need to act. That can lead to an AI Compass, guiding principles, a decision or a carefully bounded experiment.
Guided Emergence keeps strategy connected to practical learning. A useful deliverable should help the organisation make its next decision and recognize what would change it.
Facilitation & moderation
Workshops, panels, management conversations and gatherings that need active participation.
Help a group get into the conversation it needs, with enough structure to move somewhere useful.
The work begins with the purpose of the gathering and the people in it. Different perspectives, uncertainty and disagreement can be useful material.
We shape the format around the conversation, then make the decisions, learning and open questions clear enough to carry forward.
Build something useful
A clear problem worth exploring through a small, usable build.
Take a concrete problem far enough that we can try a working response to it.
A prototype, a focused tool or a better route into existing knowledge can help make a question tangible. We begin with what someone needs to do.
AI does much of the making. We shape the purpose, inspect the result and learn from using it. The next step depends on what that experience shows.

In their words
What it’s like to work with me.
Selected recommendations, shared directly and on LinkedIn.
“Joakim seems to have an incurable curiosity about technology, and it’s contagious. There is no one (honestly) who gets me to broaden my horizons and discover exciting new possibilities with technology quite like he does. He also challenges what needs challenging to make sure the business is ready for the future, creates value and has meaning. He does this even when it’s uncomfortable, but always with a great deal of care and generosity. I’m very grateful to have Jocke with us on our journey. Jocke, Mr Tough Love for entrepreneurs.”
Bella FunckCEO and co-founder, ShifticTranslated from Swedish
“Joakim is one of my biggest inspirations. Ever curious about the world, he pushes you to the highest of standards”
Niklas SilfverströmCEO and co-founder, Klang
“Joakim is an outstanding moderator with a remarkable ability to be both professional and personal in his delivery.”
Send the question, who is involved, the relevant context and what you hope will be different afterwards. Unfinished thinking is welcome. English and Swedish both work.
I usually prefer an asynchronous start and a booked conversation. It gives us both a chance to arrive prepared.
