He points out that this growing gap between education and industry needs is already creating a workforce unprepared for AI-driven environments. “AI is not just a technology upgrade. It req...

What started as a personal outlet soon became a responsibility to communicate experiences that are frequently dismissed or misjudged. The title of the book is deliberately thought-provoking. It Was Never Your Fault enco...
