    How is the mental health of workers in 2026?

    ByMike McBride March 19, 2026March 19, 2026 Reading Time: 3 minutes

    I often ask that question, but I don’t often see the results of studies in my feed in the same week. This week, however, was different. It’s not all bad news, but if you’re looking for good news, you’ll be hard-pressed to find it. First: New Global Study: One in Three Workers is “Merely Surviving”…

    Worth Reading – WordPress debuts a private workspace that runs in your browser via a new service, my.WordPress.net

    It’s all stored in the browser, which carries some risk of computer crashes, but they claim to have backup and transfer mechanisms. It could provide a playground or personal knowledge base, complete with some AI, without worrying about it being stored in the cloud, because you can’t share it. It can be a place to play with WordPress design and experimentation without the need for hosting or for it to be available on the public internet.

    Grammarly Doing Some Creepy AI Stuff

    ByMike McBride March 9, 2026March 9, 2026 Reading Time: 2 minutes

    No one gave them permission to create an AI character based on themselves. They just fed some of that person’s writing into the LLM and let it do its thing. There was, apparently, no thought given to whether having a Stephen King-based analyzer would violate the use of his name or if building the LLM would violate his copyright.

    Reaction to Death of Rondale Moore and Workplace Mental Health

    ByMike McBride February 25, 2026February 24, 2026 Reading Time: 2 minutes

    This is not just an issue for the NFL or other sports leagues. This is the reality in EVERY workplace. People ask all the time why no one talks about mental health at work, even when you have programs designed to support your employees. This is why. It’s the way everyone else in the workplace looks at them, talks to them, avoids them, and treats them differently than they did before they said anything.

    Governance Can’t Keep Up With AI

    ByMike McBride February 23, 2026February 22, 2026 Reading Time: 4 minutes

    So I ask again: why are we listening to the people who have the most to gain by getting everyone to buy AI tools, instead of making our own decisions about how quickly we should move forward with AI? Governance exists to slow things down – forcing people to think before they run off and do something disastrous. 

    Should we design better governance to address rapidly changing technology? Absolutely. Should we let Big Tech determine how we redesign it? I don’t think so.
