This Prompt Turns Job Postings into a Real-Time Market Radar

And Makes LinkedIn or Indeed Work for You

Your competitors hire for the future they believe is coming. Each vacancy is a tiny breadcrumb that, when you zoom out, spells out product bets, geographic priorities, even a company’s unspoken pain points. Today’s “Talent-Signal” prompt turns any stack of job ads into strategic foresight in fifteen minutes.

The big idea

You feed ChatGPT (or any capable LLM) a bundle of current openings from a rival, a partner, or an adjacent industry. The model clusters the roles, extracts the skills and technologies that repeat, and surfaces the business capabilities implied. The result is a concise brief you can drop straight into your next planning deck or exec update.

Insuring Against AI Mistakes: Armilla’s Bet on a New Risk Class

How Many AI Screwups Is Your Business Willing to Take?

​

Regulators issue guidance, consultants preach “responsible AI,” and enterprises still fret over one nightmare scenario: the model goes rogue, a customer sues, and legal costs explode. Toronto-based Armilla AI believes it has found the commercial answer — an insurance policy that treats faulty AI the way Lloyd’s of London once treated leaky steamships.

Armilla’s new policy, underwritten by several Lloyd’s syndicates, covers up to $15 million in legal fees, damages, and remediation when an AI system “performs materially below its represented standard.”

Early adopters are customer-service heavy companies whose chatbots have already had public meltdowns (think Air Canada inventing a refund that never existed). Premiums vary by model complexity and the rigor of pre-launch audits.

Why it matters

AI liability has been a boardroom thought exercise for years, but real dollars change behavior. When CFOs can book a line item called “AI E&O,” they suddenly have a benchmark for how much failure should cost — and a mechanism to push vendors toward safer deployment.

AI Tool Spotlight: ToneMeter AI for Effective Co-Parenting

Parents in high-conflict custody situations rarely need more email drafts—they need calmer ones. ToneMeter AI, launched today inside the veteran co-parenting app OurFamilyWizard, scans a message as you type and flags phrases that could be read as accusatory or inflammatory. Click a suggestion, and the AI rewrites in neutral language; ignore it, and your original wording stands. Early-access stats show 90 % of beta users found the rewrite helpful, with 10,000 messages toned down during the six-month pilot.

How you’d use it

1. Opt into ToneMeter inside the app’s settings.
2. Draft your message; highlighted text reveals potential friction points.
3. Review or accept the AI’s calmer alternative before hitting send—every revision is time-stamped for court-ready records.

Plans & pricing

ToneMeter AI enters a free early-access phase for all existing subscribers (currently $12.50 per month for individual accounts). After launch, OurFamilyWizard says ToneMeter will live on its Premium tier, with final pricing still TBD.

For any parent juggling logistics and legal scrutiny, paying a few bucks to pre-empt the next argument may be the cheapest peace-keeping move on the planet.
