Tech For Good

AI Environment Sustainability Artificial intelligence is reshaping industries across the economy, from healthcare and education to manufacturing and financial services – enabling organisations to improve services in ways that would have been difficult to imagine only a few years ago. But all of that comes at a cost.

AI Education Emerging Technologies Public Sector Social Good Picture a Norwegian classroom in late August. The new school year is just beginning but this year, something is missing. The laptops and tablets are still there, but for students in Years K-7 the AI function has been abruptly switched off and for students in Years 8-10, AI use is only allowed under strict supervision. No chatbot to draft their stories, no generative assistant to solve their maths problems.

According to Ofcom, annual revenues from digital advertising now total c. £40 billion in the UK alone. Online ads are a vast commercial ecosystem relied on by companies worldwide to reach their target customers, and by Big Tech to generate fees. But it’s also being increasingly exploited by fraudsters.

Finding an IT provider in Melbourne takes about ten minutes. Finding one that actually turns up is a different job. The hard part with managed IT service companies in Melbourne is working out who has real people in the city and who is running a national call centre with nobody available to walk through your front door. Pricing is often kept deliberately fuzzy. “24/7 support” sometimes turns out to be a voicemail box after 6pm.

DomainKeys Identified Mail, or DKIM, is an email authentication standard that helps prove an email message was authorized by the owner of the sending domain. It works by attaching a cryptographic signature to outgoing emails, allowing the recipient’s email server to verify that the message was not altered in transit and that it aligns with the domain name used to send it.

Online learning is fast becoming a very central part of the lives of students who want to balance their careers, personal commitments and family life. More than ever, Australian universities are embracing the trend of offering high quality, flexible and accredited programs online. Selecting the right online university can make a big difference when you’re trying to achieve your career and educational goal.

AI Healthcare Public Sector Artificial intelligence is moving rapidly from experimentation into frontline healthcare. But in the NHS, the central question is not simply what AI can do. It is whether it can be trusted when an inaccurate output could influence how urgently a patient is treated, where they are directed or what information is presented to the clinician responsible for their care. In most consumer applications, an answer that is plausible but wrong is frustrating.

Whether you’re loading up a classic arcade title on your phone or dealing out cards on a Friday evening, older formats are holding their own against modern releases. Retro gaming consoles keep flying off shelves, online versions of traditional games are pulling in huge numbers of players and quiz nights are as packed as ever. People keep returning to these games for reasons that go beyond fond memories. When you pick up a game you already know, you skip the learning curve entirely.

Running an online business in the Philippines today means operating in a market shaped by growing digital habits alongside long-standing preferences. Many consumers are already comfortable shopping through websites, social media, and mobile apps, and they expect a quick, easy experience at every step of the transaction.

AI Digital Transformation Public Sector Social Good Poor citizen experience is becoming one of the biggest risks facing public services. The Government’s State of Digital Government Review found that satisfaction with UK public services had fallen from 79% to 68% over the previous decade. It also found that satisfaction with 70% of the Government’s 75 highest-volume services was below comparable private sector benchmarks.
