Guides - Industry Contents

2 min read

Practical, in-depth guides for professionals navigating AI tools, agents, and the risk decisions that come with adopting them. Grouped by what you’re trying to solve, not by publish date.

These guides are written for people who need to make a decision this quarter, not researchers building a literature review. Each one is anchored to a specific, checkable claim, such as what an AI agent can actually be trusted to do unsupervised, or where a governance gap creates real legal exposure, and works through the evidence rather than repeating vendor marketing. New guides are added as we complete the reporting behind them, so this page grows over time rather than being republished on a schedule.

How we decide which guides to publish

Not every question we get from readers becomes one of these guides. We publish a guide only once we have run the underlying reporting, meaning talked to practitioners, tested the tool or process ourselves where possible, and found enough there to answer the question with specifics rather than generalities. That is different from how most AI guides get built, which is by synthesising other people’s articles into a longer article. A useful comparison point is the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, which lays out the kind of structured, testable questions we try to answer in each guide rather than offering generic AI safety advice.

If you have a question that is not covered in our guides yet, the fastest way to get it added is to tell us what you are trying to decide and what is missing from the existing coverage. Guides that get requested by more than one reader tend to move up the queue.
