Singapore's missing priority?

Quality from AI output (LLMs specifically) is largely dependent on clarity of intent and emotional competency.

If we want to avoid AI slop, the ability to gauge quality is now unavoidable.

Lean into your humanness, it's one way (currently) to avoid being replaced.

The truth to whatever you're building is found in emotional discomfort.

Learn to:
- Hold that space mentally and emotionally
- Curiously unpack your (feelings and thoughts)
- Find out what your gut is trying to tell you

The insights you gain will separate your product, brand and mission from everyone else.

"It feels like therapy."

That's what almost every founder tells me when they complete this process.

We just wrapped up our Customer Understanding Webinar with Aotearoa using a pathway from the of .

It was a banger - way too much to fit in a post (or even the session 😅😅).

My big takeaways:
1) How split people are on empathy - we consistently hit 50/50 on our empathy true/false pop quiz, from Poland to Singapore to New Zealand
2) Just how many feedback loops founders need - both from their intuition and in person

During in-person discussions, the people skills and curiosity needed to pick up what customers aren't saying - and often don't even realise themselves

That last one is the hardest.

You have to hold both mental and emotional space at the same time.
It's uncomfortable but that's the point!

For the strictly logical people - it can feel like hell to stay in such an awkward place.

But if you're in hell, why stop? Keep walking.

The insights alone are worth it.

I was last in KL 16 years ago!

These last 2 days were a welcome surprise as to how much it has developed.

- With a workforce holding technical and leadership talent as competent as Singapore
- Cheaper currency, costs of living and facilties
- Growing institutional capacity and trust

This was apparent for me when I met Ong and her team from Fund.

1) Honest about where they were, challenges big and small

2) Most importantly, taking careful action, and learning from both their experiences and from lessons around the region and beyond

KL is a great place to visit, and seems to be a more promising place to do business than before.

I'm just saying that after 30 hours of travel, you naturally, frustratingly pick up all the unnecessary friction points where its obvious decisions were made with more assumptions than real empathy.

In this situation, you need to where you physically put yourselves in the shoes of your users.
And not just a walk through either, if they have luggage, kids, a cane, then experience all of that to test how well you've designed your experience.

My life mission is to bring more and into the world.

It was such a privilege to share this message at 2026 in front of hundreds of investors, developers and leaders in .

- Attention on intention: why it unlocks buy-in on the hardest challenges
- Empathy as a skill, not a feeling: and how it sharpens every strategic decision
- The one question that will ever really matter: How did I do?

I'll show you why the so-called 'soft' skills are the hardest ones to master - and the most profitable to invest in.

Reach out to explore the 5 Spheres of Empathy.

Book me in for a free consult, I'd love to show you the tools and resources to applying empathy in business and .

Thank you for coming, sharing the good message and signing up for the next AI x Empathy experiment 😁

Are the cracks in the AI bubble starting to show?

I just moderated a panel at Infoshare l 2026 on the biggest problems in tech. Agree to Disagree format - provocative statements with kind, and genuine discourse.

What struck me most:

Several people in a room full of tech leaders were openly cautious about AI.
Not critics from the outside. Insiders, like Chief AI Officers!

And they had personal stories about the impact on their own cognitive ability - language, basic maths, memory, emotional management.

Other things that came up:

VC money - Danek and Irina Rudenko reminded us it's not evil. It funds arts, progress, human advancement. But we must scrutinize what it's actually used for. Andre's billionaire clients have children who suffer as much as some of the poorest children... just with a G5 instead of a G6.

Social media and youth - the post-panel conversation went there fast. If adults can't fend off scams and misinformation, how do we expect children, the most emotionally vulnerable among us, to navigate hardware and software designed for addiction?

AI and the "work hard and succeed" mantra - Barbara Forbes and Sondra Bagātā debating the moral, workforce and economic implications of one-man unicorns. We barely scratched the surface. This should have been a roundtable.

Irina's analogy stayed with me: would you go back to black and white TV? Of course not. AI is here. The box is open.

The best thing about this panel was the intentional space held by both the audience and panelists, empathy and curiosity setting the playing field.

We need more rooms like this, right away.

We can't let lobbyists dictate the left vs right polarisation around these topics. We must have dialogue in the nuance.

Thank you again for your trust Grzegorz Borowski , Patrycja Zacharzewska for letting me trial this new format at Infoshare.

And to our wonderful panelists for showing up as themselves, authentically and professionally so we could all increase our perspectives.

In the age of AI, the quality of your network matters more than ever. It's hard to know who to trust!

Luckily for me, I have Bart in my corner.

This week's radar: Bart (Bartosz) Marciniak

He's the Head of Sales at Academy who's the personification of the idea that Sales IS a service.

5 years ago he introduced me to the biggest tech event in Central Eastern Europe - , firstly believing in my capabilities, then vouching to the team to get me on stage.

And here I am, today, on their biggest stage speaking about the 5 Spheres of Empathy, sharing findings on our AI x Empathy experiments on ASEAN and Japanese economic summit delegates 😅

The self-made man is a myth

It takes belief, courage then action of so many people to create 'overnight successes'

Bart, and the Infoshare team are in the business of 'overnight successes': the introductions, the encouragement, most importantly, the belief in human potential is why they do what they do.

This is why they're one of the best in corporate training and capacity building.

Thank you Bart, for your constant support and introductions to some of the most incredible trainers in this space.

If you're looking to improve the capacity of your team, Bart is your guy.

Cancelling EVs won't fix the conflict mineral problem.

Children are mining cobalt for your phone, your laptop, your AI data centres and missile guidance systems too.

Nobody's arguing we cancel those.

Stopping mining altogether will only worsen the poverty and suffering.

In fact, you lose the buyers who could (and should) demand better conditions.

What actually fixes this?

Stringent reporting ,responsible sourcing and a firm pile of sticks and carrots.

Making sure the transition brings investment dollars that improve conditions, not abandons the people already there.

Although 2026 shows a growing number of standard EVs using cobalt-free batteries...

Cobalt is just one of many conflict minerals in our supply chains, and the demand is not going away, so we can't walk away from this.

We must stop corporate lobbying from reducing reporting, responsible sourcing requirements and enforcement agencies.

It's a complicated topic, what are your thoughts on this?

No, he's not secretly a Nigerian Prince giving out billions through email...

But he turned down a stranger's donation because he didn't want to be a burden.

Turns out this stranger was a millionaire.

This is integrity, kindness and empathy rolled neatly into a single Hungarian.

This week's radar: Adam Csmor , Commercial Director at .

MiellGreen takes plastic waste and turns it into fencing, pallets, garden furniture etc. that last 20-30 years.

They've already given new life to over 1,100 tonnes of recycled plastic - the equivalent of 56 million PET bottles.

Here's where it gets interesting.

Hard-core sustainability professionals (often loudly) share their anti-plastic concerns. (I'm one of them 😅 )

Fair enough, but when only 9% of plastic worldwide is actually recycled, and with adoption and innovation in new materials still lagging...

We need a solution to deal with the waste we have... Right. Now.

Instead of being defensive, Adam gives them the space to say their piece.

Get it all out. Feel heard and understood because he agrees!

And then he asks one question: given that only 9% of plastic worldwide is actually recycled, and given what treated wood is doing to construction - don't we need everything in our arsenal?

We do. We must all do what we can.

That's Adam's whole philosophy. And it's MiellGreen's too.

The best sustainability companies aren't perfect. They're relentlessly honest about where they are and where they're going.
