If you’re feeling AI fatigue, you aren’t alone.

While the noise around artificial intelligence is constant, new data reveals how small businesses in the UK are actually moving past the hype to find real, measurable value.

Simon Worsfold, Head of Data Communications at Intuit QuickBooks, dives into the 2026 AI Impact Report to see if AI is truly worth the investment for small and midsize businesses. The research, conducted by international economists, shows a major shift from experimentation to essential daily use.

Key Takeaways:

• Mainstream Adoption: 70% of UK small to midsize businesses now report using AI regularly, with daily use doubling in the last year.
• Growth Metrics: 43% of UK businesses have seen increased revenue due to AI, compared to only 4% who saw a decrease—an 11-to-1 ratio.
• Job Creation: Businesses using AI are more than 2x more likely to expand their teams than to cut back because of the technology.
• Daily Impact: 77% of users report increased productivity, with 1 in 4 enjoying shorter working days.
• Top Uses: Administration leads the way (45%), followed by marketing and customer service.

Auckland is supposed to be moving again. 

The City Rail Link is almost here, the CBD is looking better, and there’s been a lot of talk about the economy finally turning a corner. 

But for many Aucklanders, it still doesn’t feel like a recovery. 

New figures show the value of building work in Auckland has fallen sharply, with non-residential construction taking a major hit. And when construction slows down, it doesn’t just affect developers. It affects jobs, confidence, businesses, the city centre, and the wider economy. 

So, is Auckland’s construction slump one reason the country’s biggest city still feels stuck? 

Today on The Front Page, NZ Herald business editor-at-large Liam Dann joins us to explain what’s happening, why it matters, and whether there’s any sign of momentum returning.

Vintage in Pills JULIEN MACDONALD Spring 1998 London – Fashion Channel

Julien Macdonald’s Spring/Summer 1998 collection, presented during London Fashion Week, combined beachwear, resort dressing, and eveningwear through a vibrant, club-inspired atmosphere.

The collection featured double-breasted wrap jackets, crop tops, miniskirts, sheer dresses, shawls, and sequined mini dresses, with crochet playing a central role throughout many of the looks. Netted textures and lightweight fabrics reinforced the collection’s relaxed yet glamorous mood.

Bright neon green and pink contrasted with black, silver, and white, reflecting the energetic setting of the show, which included colorful lighting, club music, and dancers. Accessories included metallic heels, satin fascinators, and thick black headbands, while beauty styling remained minimal with pulled-back hair and sculpted cheekbones.
