In June, New Zealand supermarket chain Pak’nSave released the Savey Meal-Bot, a gen AI tool that lets users upload a list of ingredients they have, and then the bot would come up with recipes they could try. It was billed as a way for shoppers to save money because New Zealanders throw out around NZ$1,500 of food every year.

This volatility can make it hard for IT workers to decide where to focus their career development efforts, but there are at least some areas of stability in the marke

With oceans of data at our fingertips it’s easy to dismiss the dinosaurs of yesteryear, who made decisions using quaint and archaic methods such as “seat of the pants” and “gut instinct.” I jest, of course. However, it certainly is comforting to convince ourselves that decision-making is now a science, rather than an art.
