I currently sit on three different AI risk assessments at once, for three different tools — each with its own risk register, its own mandatory controls, its own go-live criteria.

There is a particular stillness in Scandinavian winters.A kind of soft pause—where the world stands briefly between what was and what can be.This season, I’ve found myself living in that pause.
