By the time this lands in your inbox, a big wooden door in Oslo has already swung open and the world has its newest Nobel Peace laureate (we wrote this before the envelope was opened, so no spoilers here).

Meanwhile, the other great guessing game (what AI actually does to your job) rumbled on, with optimists promising longer weekends while org charts quietly got shorter. It's Friday, so grab something warm and let's take stock. Peace, power and payroll: here's what moved.
