Wrote and published an evidence-based academic article challenging misconceptions about women in Islam. Grounded in Quranic ayaat and authenticated Hadith, the paper presents Islam's framework for women's dignity across 6 key dimensions — from spiritual equality to historical leadership roles.
This is a mock homepage copy project for Anansi Weave, a fictional handwoven Kente & textile brand based in Accra.
The Challenge:
Most heritage brands either sound too academic or too touristy. Anansi Weave needed a voice that honours the sacred history of Kente (Ashanti & Ewe traditions) while still feeling modern, wearable and shoppable for everyday life — scarves, totes, home textiles.
Hero with meaning: Lead with emotion -"Every thread tells a story" - not just product.
Brand story that respects craft:
Emphasised "days, not minutes" and "each pattern has a name and a meaning" to fight fast-fashion positioning.
Product with context:
Didn't just list products; added purpose — Everyday Scarf for daily wear, Adinkra Tote for real use, plus a promise that every product page tells the pattern's meaning and the weaver's name.
Result:
A warm, trustworthy, luxury-minimal voice that makes heritage feel personal and buyable. Structure is optimized for a lifestyle e-commerce homepage: Hero → About → Product Intro → Closing CTA.
AI May Not Take Your Job. It May Remove the First Step Into It.
AI does not need to fire millions of people overnight to transform the labor market.
It can begin by removing the first step into a profession.
A graduate enters software development in 2026. A company that once hired six junior developers now wants two experienced specialists who can supervise AI agents and remain accountable for the code.
No dismissal. No severance. No alarming statistic. The graduate was never employed.
Now consider a support agent in the same organization. An AI assistant retrieves relevant cases, explains expert decisions, and helps a newcomer reach competence faster. The technology that closed one career entrance has improved another.
One tool. Two futures.
Models automate tasks. Organizations decide what happens next. They can use the released capacity to improve quality, shorten working time, raise wages, increase profit, or reduce headcount. None of those outcomes is contained inside the model itself.
The evidence available in 2026 supports neither a simple apocalypse nor a simple promise:
• Roughly one in four workers is in an occupation with some exposure to generative AI, according to the ILO, but exposure is not dismissal.
• The highest exposure category covers about 3.3% of global employment.
• Some structured tasks show substantial productivity gains, especially for less experienced workers.
• Other experiments show experienced professionals becoming slower when verification and context are difficult.
• Early pressure is visible in hiring pipelines and younger workers, even though mass unemployment has not appeared in aggregate data.
My fifth long-form article maps six scenarios through 2046: the Augmentation Dividend, the Broken Career Ladder, the Core-and-Agent Firm, Algorithmic Taylorism, Robotic Displacement, and the Managed Transition.
The article follows four composite workers: a graduate locked out of a first role, an accountant whose saved time becomes a higher quota, a support agent who learns faster, and a care worker who remains indispensable but faces tighter algorithmic control.
The central question is not whether a job survives on paper. It is whether the person keeps income, autonomy, a path to expertise, and the right to challenge the system evaluating them.
Where do you already see the strongest change: fewer entry-level opportunities, higher individual output, smaller teams, or more algorithmic monitoring?
