In 2019, I dusted off my long-held dream of seeing Europe's northernmost road, the legendary Nordkapp. Unfortunately, I had very little time for vacation, so I didn't even tell anyone else, as I wouldn't dare force anyone to grind away most of the days. So I decided to treat the journey as the destination and enjoy the ride itself rather than the experiences in the surrounding area. At the same time, I was tempted to clear my head a little and rely only on myself and my machine along the way. I had never done a solo trip like this before, and you have to try everything, right?

What AI tools do you use? Do you know what tools your colleagues use? Do you know where the data you put into them ends up? Let's be clear, this article is not meant to scare you. But we also know that when managers are asked the previous three questions, many of them become uncertain. And because the use of artificial intelligence will only continue to grow, now is the right time to set boundaries so that a great tool does not become a security threat.

Digitalization, efficient state, simplified communication with authorities. In technology circles, these words are more frequently used than the absence of snow among ski lifters. But the digitisation of state administration keeps failing to arrive. Why? Where is the problem? And don't we sometimes have unreasonable and unrealistic expectations? Tomáš Rutrle talks about all this in this interview. He is in charge of the digital solutions for the modern state section at Aricoma and has a great deal of experience. Because he was already on the topic of digitalization at a time when the Czech Republic was just beginning to use the Internet en masse.

David Sibřina has something at work that I'm sure none of you have. It's a 3D print of a liver with all its protrusions and projections, and it's a bit of a symbol. The researcher, who works at IKEM as head of the augmented and virtual reality surgery planning group, actually started working on incorporating virtual reality tools into the surgical process the moment it became clear that even modern planning techniques using just 3D prints weren't enough.

The need to adapt, to deal with server and database capacity, to scale. When you say charity, you don't associate any of those words with it. But David Procházka, the founder of Donio, the largest and well-known donation platform in the Czech Republic, doesn't tend to think that way. On the contrary, he talks about Donio as a technological tool that facilitates help. In the interview, he explains what it entails and what has made it so popular. He and his team have managed to solve old problems much more efficiently using new tools.

It is pretty hard to imagine a job, a school day or life in general without computers, phones and technology in general. But daily exposure to them has an impact on people and contributes to shaping their lives. How can we make the most of them, the positive side, and not be influenced by the negative side? This is what psychologist David Šmahel has been researching at Masaryk University (MU) for years. In contrast to others, you will not hear apocalyptic scenarios from him. Instead, he speaks engagingly about all the consequences of the digitalisation of life that we are still unaware of.
