sefa ozel/Getty Images A report from technology analyst firm Valoir has found that most companies are either already leveraging AI for HR activities, such as recruiting, learning, and talent management, or they plan to do so within the next 24 months. However, there's a significant gap in terms of policies, practices, and training for safe and effective AI adoption. Only 34% of organizations have a policy on generative AI (gen AI), and even fewer offer effective training. Also: 5 entry-level

But Marks argues that smell is one of the most potent ways to give museum visitors a visceral sense of the past, and to help them remember what they read or saw in an exhibit. Among the scents she designed for the docks exhibition was one inspired by a woman’s memory, in the oral histories, of her dockworker father’s damp woollen coat drying on an electric fire in the nineteen-sixties. Marks thought that the coat might have smelled like her own grandfather’s wool flat cap. He’d been a London cab
