Our experience of using AI to assist with some of our day-to-day tasks has been pretty positive. These systems are particularly suited to helping with the "rules" based industry we belong to, especially on the code side. However, that doesn't mean there's no risks here, and those risks aren't necessarily the obvious ones...
We've now been living with ChatGPT et al for a year or two, and statistics would suggest that most people reading this will have used these systems to some degree in that time. It's pretty clear they are amazing at a lot of things things, but there's plenty of reasons to always be wary...
You may or may not be aware that the deadline for websites to comply with the UK Online Safety Act has now passed. This means that if they include any adult content (even if that's not their primary purpose), they need properly enforced age checks. Naturally, this isn't going exactly how the government planned...
Ransomware attacks continue to evolve, targeting not just your primary data but also your backups. As more businesses rely heavily on backups for disaster recovery, attackers are focusing on these critical safety nets to maximise their impact.

It's now almost a couple of years since we wrote our first in-depth article about the rise of AI and the impact it may have on 3aIT and our clients. So, how are things looking as we get stuck into 2025? Are any of these new tools actually useful?
You don't have to have a memory that goes back that far to remember when most of us were buying new phones every couple of years or so. That hasn't been the case for a while, and it's not just phones. What's changed, and what are manufacturers doing to try and get us to splash the cash now?
Having completed our HowTo series on how well Copilot currently integrates with each of the main Microsoft 365 apps (Outlook, Word etc), we thought it might be worth a roundup, analysing what we found, and asking whether it's currently worth the subscription?
Do you ever get the feeling that every website looks basically the same these days? This certainly wasn't always the case. So what has changed in the last few years (or not, as the case may be) to create this relative stability in the website world?
For decades, Windows PCs have been powered by the same type of chip - usually an Intel or AMD processor. They've had many improvements over the years, but the fundamentals have been the same. This is now changing, and it may have important implications on the next PC you buy.
Just in case you hadn't heard, there's an election just round the corner! As is now tradition, we have scoured the manifestos of the major parties to look for any IT-related commitments. As AI is likely to play an increasing role in our lives over the course of the next parliament, it will be interesting to see how this is being addressed.
