Reviews
I thoroughly enjoyed ‘Shimmer, Don’t Shake’ and highly recommend it for publishers, tech enthusiasts, and futurists alike. For those seeking guidance through the uncharted waters of AI, it stands as an invaluable resource.
Thomas Cox Managing Director, arq works
A balanced and well thought through analysis of the influence that AI will have on publishing and already has. It strikes an appreciable balance between hype, hope, and fear.
Martin Pichlmair CEO, Laika
It is refreshing to read such a positive response to AI that seeks to combine the new technology with the best of past traditions. Nadim superbly addresses both the revenue opportunities and the industry’s fears.
Rick Mayston Literary & Media Agent, Managing Director, Agent Fox Media
Nadim offers an optimistic and clear-eyed look at the benefits and opportunities afforded to agencies and marketers by the arrival of LLMs. There are lessons here not just for publishers, but everyone in marketing.
