In this episode of Add To Cart, Jevon Le Roux joins Nathan Bush to share how Keeyu is turning customer service on its head.

This week's podcast is about estimating the costs of providing GenAI products and services. And this is changing.You can listen to this podcast here, which has the slides and graphics mentioned. Also available at iTunes and Google Podcasts.Here is the link to the TechMoat Consulting.Here is the link to our Tech Tours.My approach to assessing GenAI operating costs is the below checklist.What is the cost of compute, including energy and cooling? Initial cost vs. ongoing?The core compute is going to drive a lot of the costs. Especially if you are using an AI cloud service provider. If you have a downloaded open-source model, then it's mostly the initial cost.These compute costs dependent on the requirements of the AI workloads:The compute requirementsThe timing requirementsThe memory requirementsWhat is the cost of creating and maintaining the desired correctness over time?How accurate and correct you need the foundation model to be is a big deal. And this factor determines how much of the operations are done by software versus humans. It can make the costs of GenAI products look a lot more like services than traditional software.My main questions are:How much does correctness matter? What level of correctness does the product need to compete? What is the cost of inaccuracy?How does correctness change over time? Is it stable and flat lining, advancing, naturally changing or deteriorating?How much of a long tail is there in the domain? Is the long tail a liability or a benefit?How much of the process is iterative? How much are humans in the loop?What is the initial cost of training and getting to the desired level of correctness?What is the ongoing cost of inference at the desired level of correctness? How much are humans in the loop?What is the cost and frequency of fine tuning and/or retraining?What are the cost implications of increasing scale?What are the scale advantages vs. disadvantages?Does the Jevon paradox apply? --------I am a consultant and keynote speaker on how to accelerate growth with improving customer experiences (CX) and digital moats.I am a partner at TechMoat Consulting, a consulting firm specialized in how to increase growth with improved customer experiences (CX), personalization and other types of customer value.

Dealing with outsiders - ACIM text Intro SummaryThe text frames forgiveness as the essential condition that allows prayer to rise. Prayer is timeless; forgiveness is temporary because it exists only as long as judgment exists. Judgment is the act of assigning meaning, dividing people into categories, and assuming one knows what things “mean.” Forgiveness is the release of these interpretations. When interpretations fall away, perception changes, and the present moment becomes workable. If one dislikes a person, situation, or oneself, the “problem” is usually the judgment attached to it, not the thing itself.Forgiveness ends when the belief in being a separate self ends—when identity is no longer the body or the stream of personal thoughts. In that state, everything is experienced as connected, already fulfilled, and harmless. Life becomes more like watching a play with Jesus rather than being trapped in it.Examples illustrate this.• Leila misinterpreted her child's social situation and built elaborate stories about rejection; once she asked directly, the situation dissolved and the judgment was revealed as fiction.• Jevon described feeling rejected at a conference, noticing how his own conflicting desires—wanting inclusion and wanting to escape—created inner turmoil.The text warns that forgiveness is often misunderstood. Many use it as a weapon, implying superiority or reinforcing guilt (“I forgive you, but you were wrong”). This is “forgiveness to destroy,” which keeps sin alive, enlarges error, and treats love as dangerous. Real forgiveness does the opposite: it sees sameness, not hierarchy.Guilt is discussed as the root of suffering. The primary guilt is the belief in separation from God, which generates the special, separate self. That guilt is projected outward, causing constant searching for fault. The ego promises fulfillment in separateness but delivers contradiction: wanting acceptance while wanting uniqueness; wanting children strong but wanting them shielded from hardship; wanting love but withholding openness. The ego's motto is “seek but do not find.”To undo guilt, one releases seriousness. Seriousness presumes that death is real, danger is real, and enemies exist. When seriousness dissolves, the need for an enemy dissolves. Attack—toward strangers, loved ones, or oneself—comes from believing danger is real and separation is real. If there is no “other,” there is no one to defend against.One discussion showed this dynamic:• kristen projected financial fear onto China and reacted with anger. Jevon pointed out the underlying fear—being asked for money and feeling trapped between giving and resenting or refusing and feeling guilty. The shift comes from reframing the ask as trust rather than burden.• Soo asked about “other” versus “enemy.” Jevon noted that an enemy begins as an “other,” and the world expands or contracts based on who is included in one's sense of oneness.• Conversations about belonging versus uniqueness showed that the conflict is not solved by choosing one side but by recognizing that both desires arise from the mistaken identity as a separate self.Several interpersonal examples explored how to respond to overwhelming or difficult people.• Leila struggled with a talkative acquaintance. Jevon suggested either the gentle advisory approach (“In my life I've found…”) or the direct but open-hearted approach (“Have you noticed that…?”). The point is authenticity, not accusation. Avoidance appears kind but is usually self-protection dressed as politeness. Real kindness is truthful, curious, and anchored in goodwill.• Healthy communication requires noticing one's own judgments and speaking from clarity rather than irritation. Accusatory statements trigger defense; open statements invite reflection. Space in conversation corresponds to space in the person's inner life; when someone barrels ahead without pause, they are often afraid of what others might say.Leila later reported success using direct honesty with another friend, which deepened connection. This reinforced the idea that oneness appears when false stories and hidden resentments are cleared.The closing idea: forgiveness is always self-forgiveness. One never truly forgives “another,” because what is seen in others is one's own projected guilt. Prayer is a vibrational state—gratitude without judgment. Forgiveness restores this state by releasing the belief in separation and the need for an enemy. When that belief drops, the world becomes harmless, unified, and safe, and one realizes that one has never been alone.#acim #forgiveness
Police Minister Mark Mitchell says trust needs to be regained after the Independent Police Conduct Authority found there were "significant failings" in the way police responded to complaints about former Deputy Police Commissioner Jevon McSkimming. . Q+A asked him why allegations weren't raised in his office earlier and whether there were wider structural issues at play. . Mitchell spoke of a “corrupt Police executive" in the interview, then later walked back on his comments. . He said in a statement: “Regarding my comments on corruption, I acknowledge that the IPCA report did not use the words corrupt or corruption and on reflection I misspoke. Like most New Zealanders, I am personally disgusted by the behaviour highlighted in the IPCA report.” . The IPCA report did find that in handling complaints McSkimming, Police bypassed standard processes. Although they didn't find evidence of collusion, they did find senior officers — including the former Commissioner — attempted to rush investigations to help McSkimming's application for commissioner and failed to recognise the inappropriateness of their actions. . Join Jack Tame and the Q+A team and find the answers to the questions that matter. Made with the support of NZ on Air.
So it turns out the woman with whom Jevon McSkimming had an affair, whose warnings police ignored and who police charged instead of investigating McSkimming, is still facing charges. This is the news today. And the police are having to defend this. Now, the charges don't relate to messages that she sent about McSkimming. Those charges have been dropped. They relate to messages that she allegedly sent to another policeman - the officer who originally arrested her - and the emails she allegedly sent to his wife. Now, this is undoubtedly going to look bad for police because it will look like they are still persecuting a victim. But how about we take the emotion out of it and look at it again? Just because Jevon McSkimming is a creep and clearly the villain of the story doesn't mean that she is necessarily innocent. I mean, look at the allegations. Allegedly emailing a police officer is one thing. Allegedly emailing his wife is something else. And this is after some pretty bunny-boiler behaviour, including sending 300 emails to McSkimming and others over a series of years. Now, there will be some people who have complete sympathy for her in this, who will say that the allegations show that she is a woman driven mad by being ignored and gaslit by the very people that she was asking for help. And that may well be true, and I suspect that it is, and I feel sorry for her, and I feel sorry for the horrible situation that Jevon McSkimming, the absolute creep, has put her in. But I still don't think it justifies alleged lawbreaking as a response, because that logic is the very same logic that is used by the soft judges who read cultural reports about offenders' childhoods and then excuse them for what they did because of what was originally done to them when they were kids. Do you follow what I'm saying? Now, having said all of that, if you're of the view that she only sent a bunch of emails, so who really cares? Then why do we have the law? Now, that's a fair debate. We can have a debate about that law because not everyone loves the Harmful Digital Communications Act. But if the law exists, and if you allegedly break that law and the police, despite realizing how bad it will look for them to charge you, still choose to charge you, then isn't there a case to answer?

The Public Service Commissioner is saying little on the details of Andrew Coster's ongoing employment after his involvement in the Jevon McSkimming scandal. A scathing IPCA report has found the former Police Commissioner was among those in senior police leadership who failed to properly address sex allegations against the then Deputy Police Commissioner. Coster is now head of the Social Investment Agency. His employer, Sir Brian Roche, says an employment process is underway for Coster and can't mention details. But he told Mike Hosking someone can be let go for behaviour at a previous job. Roche says the key issue is whether the information would have been relevant at the time of employment. The Public Service Commissioner says a review into the employment process of Jevon McSkimming was a little unfair to the commission. The independent review has been released into McSkimming's reference and probity checks before his 2023 appointment as Deputy Police Commissioner. Last week he pleaded guilty to having child sexual exploitation and bestiality material on his work devices. Sir Brian Roche says the review raised some valid points for improvements, which the commission is embracing. But he told Hosking it would have detected Jevon McSkimming's behaviour had it been given the right information from the right people. He says the man was living a double life which he was hiding from his family, his employer, and the Commission. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
A former police negotiator has suggested systemic failures led to a scandal revealed yesterday, around former Deputy Police Commissioner Jevon McSkimming. An IPCA report's revealed past serious allegations about McSkimming weren't immediately investigated by senior staff. The woman who made them was charged with harassment, despite the lack of scrutiny of her claims. Former negotiator Lance Burdett says not having experienced staff could have played a part in the failures. "There's only two options, isn't there? Well, there's three - ignorance, incompetence or something nefarious. I don't know." A new police Inspector-General is being created. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Bemusement at the actions of past senior police executives and their handling of serious complaints against the former Deputy Commissioner. A damming Independent Police Conduct Authority report's found a the allegations against Jevon McSkimming - who was gunning for the top job - were not immediately investigated. The complainant was then charged with harassment. Lawyer and former police officer Matthew Hague says it's possible those at the top thought they were doing the wrong thing for the right reasons. "I can't understand how these senior, experienced, trusted leaders thought this would withstand scrutiny." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There have been no official talks yet about compensation for the complainant against Jevon McSkimming. The former Deputy Police Commissioner is awaiting sentencing after pleading guilty to having child sexual exploitation and bestiality material on his work devices. A scathing watchdog report has found some of the nation's highest-ranking officers ignored a young woman's anonymous complaints against McSkimming. Instead, she was prosecuted for digital harassment. The handling of the case has been called ‘appalling’ by the now Police Commissioner Richard Chambers and Police Minister Mark Mitchell.

Former Police Commissioner Andrew Coster is "on leave" from the Social Investment Agency following a damning report into the handling of the Jevon McSkimming case. The former Deputy Police Commissioner is awaiting sentence after last week pleading guilty to having child sexual exploitation and bestiality material on his work devices. The IPCA's report reveals senior leadership ignored anonymous allegations McSkimming was a sexual predator, and instead the woman was prosecuted for digital harassment. Survivors' advocate Louise Nicholas told Ryan Bridge Coster's role in this really makes her angry. She says he has a lot to answer for around this and he needs to front up.

Ex-top cop Jevon McSkimming's admitted to having child exploitation and bestiality images on work devices. The former Deputy Police Commissioner's pleaded guilty to three representative charges of possessing objectionable material in Wellington District Court this afternoon.

The Police Minister says he's pleased former Deputy Police Commissioner Jevon McSkimming's pleaded guilty to having child exploitation and bestiality images on work devices. He admitted to three representative charges in Wellington District Court this afternoon. Court documents reveal the 52-year-old made thousands of Google searches, many seeking AI-generated or cartoon images. Police Minister Mark Mitchell says this result shows no-one's above the law - but this behaviour reflects poorly on the police. "For every one officer - and it's a big organisation, so you're always going to have some people that don't uphold the standards. But most of our police officers do, they're out there every day, they're doing tens of thousands of positive acts." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
