I've seen so many posts on speed over quality on places like LI, it saddens me too. I believe thinking skills will win out in the end, as you cannot craft quality context-appropriate prompts without thinking about how to do that.

Human skills matter more in the age of AI noise image
Loved the framing of clarity of thought being linked to having solid fundamental testing knowledge. Great conversation

Great take, Rahul. I feel like both AI in the loop and quality in the loop should be in the glossary

AMA about The MoTaverse image
I know you say you are not sure what the MoTaverse will end up looking like, but is there one big thing for 2026, and 2027 that you would love to see?
AMA about project management (with a tester's hat) image
Glad you found your voice, Nadja. Here's my question. How do you handle company and stakeholder needs that might impact product quality, for example, wanting to release before all risks are mitigated or having a lack of interest in usability or accessibility testing?

Do you do any accessibility testing? If so, what do you do, and are there any tools you would recommend?

To say something worth saying is not to be a genius, it’s to be brave. image
I've delivered a couple of writing workshops to help folks get started with public speaking, and 'I've nothing to say' is the most common thing I've heard. A couple of questions, such as 'why are you here', 'what brought you to testing', or 'what do you find most interesting about testing', usually get you one or two lightning talks and occasionally a conference talk framework. No one has experienced what you have. You are the only you. Tell us about it.
