AI systems are reshaping industries like healthcare, finance and law but, in many instances, results are delivered without revealing the decision making process behind them. Explainable AI (XAI) brings clarity to this process by making these systems more interpretable - which is especially important in high-stakes scenarios. In the second part of his 'AI unpacked' series, Nathan Marlor, our Global Head of Data and AI, explores what XAI is, why it matters, and how it's applied.

When it comes to the climate emergency and technology, it can be hard to find balance between planet and profit. But perhaps it's time to reframe the conversation. In his latest blog, our Global Lead for Application Modernisation and Integration, John Bolger, dives into how sustainability and FinOps go hand in hand. He suggests that by optimising resources, adopting serverless architecture models, and managing data effectively, businesses can achieve both environmental and financial goals.

Humans are good at dealing with uncertainty - we often admit when we don’t know something. Large Language Models (LLMs), on the other hand, are not programmed to express doubt. AI 'hallucinations' occur because LLMs are designed to generate complete responses, even when they don’t have all the information. In the first part in a new 'AI unpacked' series, Nathan Marlor, our Global Head of Data X AI, explores what AI hallucinations are, why they occur, and how we can address them.
