You're Not Prepared for the AI Revolution
GenAI capabilities are improving exponentially every six months or so, and yet most companies are adopting models at a linear pace, at best. That means the you're constantly falling behind and failing to unlock AIs expanding skills. Thats the view of Karim Lakhani, an HBS professor who's a leading expert on AI in the workplace. In this edition of the HBR Executive Agenda, HBR editor at large Adi Ignatius talks to Lakhani about what leaders must do now to get AI right. And Ann Hiatt, a Silicon Valley veteran and executive leadership consultant, looks at the growing involvement of fractional C-suite leaders in strategy-making - and the ensuing operational challenges.

After Attacking Iran, Israel Girds for What's Next
At three oclock on Friday morning, sirens blared across Israel, and my family in Tel Aviv sprang awake. As I shuffled my groggy children to the stairwell of our apartment building, I noticed that a garbage truck outside was carrying on as usual: loading a bin, unloading an empty one, beeping in reverse. Sirens have become so frequent in the past eighteen months that some Israelis have become inured to the threat.

Trump gives data of immigrant Medicaid enrollees to deportation officials
President Donald Trump's administration has released to deportation officials the personal data for millions of Medicaid enrollees, including their immigration status. That's according to an internal memo and emails obtained by The Associated Press. Trump officials have been reaching deep into communities across the country to ramp up deportations and fought for the health data on immigrants from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. The dataset released this week includes the information of people living in California, Illinois, Washington state and Washington, D.C., which all allow immigrants who are in the U.S. illegally to enroll in relatively new Medicaid programs that pay for their expenses using only state taxpayer dollars.

One of the Dreamliners That Gave a Boeing Manager Nightmares Just Crashed
One of the Dreamliners That Gave a Boeing Manager Nightmares Just Crashed
For 15 years now, engineers and quality control specialists have implored regulators, journalists and airlines to take a closer look at the 787 Dreamliner, Boeing's first and only clean-sheet commercial airplane designed from scratch since the company's horrific 1997 merger with McDonnell Douglas. The smooth surface of the lightweight composite fibers used to construct the airframe can conceal deadly structural flaws, they warned. The non-union workforce that manufactures the jets in South Carolina is unqualified to stand up to "good old boy" bosses constantly pressuring them to ignore obvious nonconformities, install malfunctioning parts and cut every corner imaginable to get planes out the door, they asserted. Unsavory subcontractors have exploited Boeing's lax standards to litter the assembly line with fake parts, they demonstrated.


Editor's Note: An investigator who worked on the documentary told the Prospect that employees he interviewed were especially anxious about three planes they had worked on that were scheduled to be delivered to Air India during the first months of 2014. The planes all had serious flaws that required them to be flown to the union assembly line in Everett to be re-worked. The Air India Dreamliner that crashed today took off from the Everett airport en route to Delhi for the first time on January 31, 2014.
