Sixty. Still curious.
Translated by AI from Swedish. Read the original alongside it whenever you like.
Folks. I turned 60 this week.
I've never worked this much and never had this much fun. AI still leaves me utterly amazed. But I have also, from time to time, been afraid of becoming redundant.
That worry, although I no longer remember what triggered it then, was part of the background to ‘Our time to shine’, which I wrote in January 2025 about AI and the opportunities for those of us over 55. That was, incidentally, the last time I felt that way.
Now I've written a follow-up. A little older, still curious. No longer worried for myself, but certainly concerned that so many others are worried.
Needlessly worried, I hope. Because it is our time to shine. Still.
... and you know where to find the link.
