Our AI manifesto: building a responsible, human-centred future with AI
As co-founders of iwantmore.ai and having spent many years helping organisations adopt new technology, we believe AI represents one of the most significant opportunities of our generation.
We see its potential every week in the conversations we have with clients: people solving problems faster, accessing knowledge more easily and finding new ways to deliver better outcomes. We also believe that those developing and deploying AI have a responsibility to keep people at the heart of its progress.
Giving people greater capacity to focus on where it matters
In education, AI can help make learning more accessible and tailored to individual needs, while giving teachers more time to teach. In medicine, it has the potential to support earlier diagnosis, accelerate research and give healthcare professionals more time for patients.
Through our work with clients across multiple sectors, from professional services and construction to healthcare and financial services, we are seeing a clear pattern: people spend less time searching, summarising and administering, and more time applying judgement, creativity and expertise.
Across wider society, it can remove barriers, improve access to knowledge and services, and help people achieve things previously beyond their reach.
“Much of the public conversation focuses on what AI might become. Our focus is also on what organisations can achieve today, using the tools already available, in ways that are useful, safe and practical.” – iwantmore.ai
Turning ambition into opportunity
What we have also witnessed across our client base is that for individuals and small businesses, AI can be a powerful leveller. Capabilities once dependent on large teams and substantial budgets are becoming more accessible.
With a modest monthly investment a small business can analyse information, develop ideas, improve its operations and serve customers with a level of capability previously associated with much larger enterprises. With the right access, skills and support, more people can turn ambition into opportunity.
One of the things that has surprised us most is not the technology itself, but how quickly people adapt when AI is connected to real work. Employees who initially approach AI with caution often become some of its strongest advocates once they see it helping them remove friction, save time and make better use of their own expertise.
AI adoption is a people challenge
Our experience has taught us that successful AI adoption is rarely determined by the quality of the technology alone. The organisations seeing the greatest value are those investing in leadership, governance, skills and culture alongside the tools themselves. AI adoption is a people challenge before it is a technology challenge.
But these benefits are not guaranteed, and the risks deserve honest discussion. Bias, misinformation, loss of privacy, disruption to employment and the concentration of power all have real human consequences. People need a voice in how AI changes their lives, alongside support to adapt.
…but it’s moving so quickly
The speed of innovation makes this responsibility more urgent. iwantmore.ai is two years old and the advances we have seen in that time are startling. Much of the public conversation focuses on what AI might become.
Our focus is also on what organisations can achieve today, using the tools already available, in ways that are useful, safe and practical.
“At iwantmore.ai, our role is not to persuade organisations to use AI everywhere. Our role is to help them make informed decisions about where AI creates genuine value, where human judgement remains essential, and how to implement it responsibly” – iwantmore.ai
It’s time for regulation
Many of the organisations we work with want to move quickly, but they also want confidence that they are doing so responsibly. Clear regulation and practical governance frameworks can help create that confidence, enabling innovation while protecting people. AI companies and governments globally must ensure that ethics, accountability and the long-term impact on humanity remain central to their decisions.
We would welcome internationally coordinated regulation that establishes meaningful standards for safety, governance and transparency. This should include independent scrutiny, clear accountability and openness about capabilities and limitations. It should also be proportionate, so that smaller businesses can participate without unnecessary barriers.
There is already so much we can achieve with the technology available today. Used with well-structured data, human judgement and the right guardrails, current AI systems can help address complex business problems and deliver substantial value. We should give equal attention to applying these capabilities well, building trust and sharing the benefits, rather than waiting for future breakthroughs before taking action.
Our commitment at iwantmore.ai
At iwantmore.ai, our role is not to persuade organisations to use AI everywhere. Our role is to help them make informed decisions about where AI creates genuine value, where human judgement remains essential, and how to implement it responsibly. We want organisations to build confidence, develop practical skills and adopt AI in a way that serves their people, their customers and their purpose.
We remain optimistic about the future of AI because of the people we meet every day: professionals finding more time for higher-value work, small businesses accessing capability that was previously out of reach, and leaders trying to make thoughtful choices in a fast-moving environment. The future of AI should not be measured solely by technological progress, but by the positive impact it has on people’s lives.
That is the future we want to help build.

We recently met a chief executive who despite his team asking for AI tools to help them work smarter, had decided that AI was not for him or his business. He even went as far as calling it ‘artificial unintelligence’. Despite this position, he admitted that competitors were taking market share. They were using AI to do a lot more with less. These were AI forward businesses. But what exactly is an AI forward business?
As AI tools become more widespread, some businesses are putting their money where their strategy is and offering financial rewards to employees who use AI in their work. It’s a bold move. But is it effective or could it backfire? And what message does it send to employees? We’ve taken a look at the pros and cons, including the very real human concerns around job security and why rewarding AI use can be a good move when done correctly.
Vibe marketing is the next big thing in digital marketing. But what is Vibe Marketing? Vibe marketing is a new approach that uses generative AI to translate a brand feeling or essence into marketing assets (images, copy, ads, full campaigns, and even product ideas). Coined from the concept of vibe coding, introduced by AI legend Andrej Karpathy, vibe marketing is all about marketers describing their brand’s feel, audience, and intention in plain English.
AI continues to move forwards at a ridiculous pace. New models are popping up weekly. Things you couldn’t do a week ago now seem second nature. But behind the headlines about innovation, is good old regulation. Whether it’s GDPR or new legal frameworks emerging to tackle foundation models, in the UK, AI won’t remain unregulated for long.
In the world of artificial intelligence, there's a slightly corny phrase that gets repeated a lot: ‘data is the new oil.’ I don’t like it, but it’s catchy. It makes a point. But like all catchy phrases, it oversimplifies reality. Yes, data fuels AI, but does that mean you need to stop everything until your data is pristine? Nope.
At iwantmore.ai, we help businesses navigate the world of AI. One of the persisting challenges we see is the perception by some people that using AI is 'cheating.' Despite AI’s proven advantages, some professionals still feel uneasy about embracing it leading to a culture where employees secretly use AI tools to avoid judgment.
