Just a few years ago, the idea of a junior consultant managing a team of AI agents sounded like science fiction. Today, at KPMG, it is the new reality. The Big Four firm is training its newest recruits to oversee digital workforces, a move that signals a seismic shift in the professional services landscape and a stark warning for project managers everywhere: the age of the AI colleague is here.   For decades, consulting has been a well-trodden career path. Graduates cut their

When companies commit $1.4 trillion they don't have yet, project leaders need to understand what happens when the math stops working OpenAI announced a $38 billion seven-year deal with Amazon Web Services. The headline grabbed attention. The deeper story matters more for anyone building AI-dependent systems. OpenAI has now committed to spending approximately $1.4 trillion on infrastructure over the next decade. The company's expected revenue by year-end 2025 is roughly $20 bi

And It's Breaking Your Projects  "Vibe coding" became 2025's word of the year, but one critical question remains unanswered: who actually understands what the code does? The Moment Everything Shifted In February 2025 , Andrej Karpathy , a former OpenAI executive and the architect behind Tesla's autonomous driving systems, posted something deceptively casual on X that would ripple through software development: "I just see stuff, say stuff, run stuff, and copy paste stuff, and

A typical housing application involves 4,000 pages of documents and an 18-month wait. The government’s new AI plan could change that forever, and it’s about time.

In a single week, Nvidia became the first company in history to hit a $5 trillion valuation while rival AMD secured a $1 billion government contract. If you’re still waiting for this “bubble” to burst, you might be waiting forever.

90% of the world’s data was generated in the last two years, yet construction still argues over progress. A new acquisition signals the end of the debate and the dawn of true visual intelligence.

A major new report urges an “AI-first” approach to UK infrastructure, while the government simultaneously drops a comprehensive skills toolkit. Coincidence? We think not. This is the starting gun.

While 70% of project teams are still wrestling with spreadsheets, two AI giants just lit a fire under the future of work, and it’s about to get uncomfortably hot.

What if the path we’re on, the relentless pursuit of bigger, more powerful neural networks, is a blind alley? What if the very foundation of the current AI revolution, with its vast energy consumption and probabilistic nature, is not the only way, or even the best way, forward? It’s a question that challenges the prevailing narrative, a narrative that has captivated the world and fuelled a technological gold rush. But in a small corner of the UK, a team of researchers is quie

What if the greatest promise of artificial intelligence isn't that it will make us more efficient, but that it will force us to become more human?

A new battleground for the internet has been drawn, and your browser is the front line. OpenAI’s new ChatGPT Atlas browser promises a revolution in productivity, but with 58% of AI browser users experiencing prompt injection attacks, is it a revolution we’re ready for? Another week, another AI bombshell. This time, it’s OpenAI’s audacious move into the browser market with ChatGPT Atlas, a sleek, AI-powered portal to the web that promises to be your “dynamic, intelligent compa

With AI summaries causing a 50% drop in click-throughs to sources, the internet’s foundational library is facing a silent crisis. For project professionals who rely on verifiable knowledge, this is a five-alarm fire. For two decades, Wikipedia has been the internet’s unlikely miracle. A sprawling, volunteer-run encyclopedia that became the de facto starting point for everything from high school essays to complex project research. It is, as one TechCrunch writer aptly put it,

A new tool from Anthropic promises to slash developer setup time and eliminate environment-related bugs by moving the entire coding process to the cloud. With the potential to run multiple development tasks in parallel, this isn’t just a new toy for coders—it’s a fundamental shift in how project managers need to think about their delivery pipeline. For every project manager who has heard the dreaded phrase, “but it works on my machine,” a moment of liberation may be at hand.

A single, faulty line of code in an obscure automation script just brought a significant portion of the internet to its knees. The recent AWS outage, which took down over 2,000 companies, is a brutal reminder that your project’s critical infrastructure rests on a knife-edge. Are you prepared for the day it slips? For a few terrifying hours this week, the digital world held its breath. Services that millions rely on every day—from the encrypted messaging app Signal to the gami

A shocking new study reveals that AI models fed a diet of low-quality internet content suffer from “brain rot,” losing their ability to reason and even developing psychopathic traits. If you’re not managing your project’s data quality, you’re actively cultivating this dysfunction in your own AI tools. In 2024, the Oxford Dictionary declared “brain rot” its word of the year, capturing the sense of cognitive decline felt by a generation over-exposed to the vapid, low-quality co

With analysts screaming that the AI market is “17 times bigger than the dot-com bust,” the real story isn’t about a bubble about to pop—it’s about the tangible, steel-and-silicon foundation of a new industrial revolution being laid before our very eyes. Everywhere you turn, the sirens are wailing. The AI market is a bubble, they cry. It’s the dot-com mania all over again, but on steroids. Respected analysts are publishing reports with terrifying headlines, claiming we are in

With AI models now twice as fast and a third of the cost, the era of specialised, single-use agents may already be over before it truly began. For years, the technology sector has been captivated by the promise of AI agents—autonomous systems designed to execute complex, multi-step tasks on our behalf. From booking holidays to managing complex software deployments, the vision was a world populated by a diverse array of digital assistants, each a specialist in its own domain.

Knowledge workers spend up to 60% of their time on a single activity: translation. As AI drives that cost to zero, the very definition of project management is being rewritten. For decades, the project management profession has been built on a fundamental, albeit unspoken, premise: the project manager as a human hub, a translator of chaos into order. We take requirements from stakeholders and translate them into specifications for engineers. We take raw data and translate it

As whispers of failure surround Saudi Arabia’s giga-project, the real story is not one of collapse, but of a crucial, painful, and necessary evolution. For project professionals, NEOM is the ultimate case study in the collision of ambition, reality, and artificial intelligence. In the hyper-caffeinated world of technology news, failure is a far more seductive narrative than evolution. It is therefore no surprise that recent reports of scaled-back ambitions and suspended work

From the heart of academia, a glimpse into the future of work, creativity, and national ambition. Project Flux was on the ground to decipher what it all means for the world of project delivery. Stepping into the historic grounds of Jesus College at the University of Oxford for the 2025 Generative AI Summit felt like entering a nexus point where past and future collide. The palpable energy wasn't just about the promise of new technology; it was a charged atmosphere of critical
