Most founders still use AI to help them do things they would’ve done anyway.
An under-appreciated use of AI: do things a human would never do because it’s prohibitively time-consuming. . .

In-house example: the AI Startup Analyst.
It analyses early-stage startups and generates a detailed report for the founders with market insights, competitor intelligence, validation strategy, next steps. . .

This would take me 2-3 days and be an expensive exercise, so I don't do it.
The AI Startup Analyst does it in 15 minutes, and has been used by hundreds of founders.
I'm building a suite of decision-support tools for startup founders. Follow me for updates.

It was inspiring to talk with @ColinKinner about COVlD Safety and the psychological processes that are holding society back from clean air and better health. 👇

Psychological defence mechanisms can be a major barrier to schools taking action to prevent COVID spreading.
We talked to @michael_hoerger to understand how these defences can affect attitudes and behaviours, and strategies to overcome them.

This interview with @michael_hoerger explains some of the very real psychological barriers to taking action on covid in schools - including cognitive dissonance, normalcy bias, the bystander effect and denial.

Big numbers. Bc of much less severe disease than in adults, authorities have gambled that COVID/long COVID in kids is of little concern. There's much evidence now to suggest that's wrong. There's a clear path to better protect kids. We should take it.

Doctors: we've accepted too many myths about Covid.
My presentation explains why - and gives you the science you're missing.

What are we doing, people?
Cat shelters now have better protections against airborne illnesses than most schools do.

Quite a bit of media atm about the new COVID variant NB.1.8.1. The chance of you encountering this virus is very high. This is a thread about two key mitigations to protect yourself & your family; vaccination & ventilation. abc.net.au/listen/programs/r… 1/

There are even free courses for schools to make sure they understand how covid, flu and other viruses spread. . .

We're in the 6th year of the pandemic. People are still getting infected in part because of misinformation. They're being told to avoid people who are coughing / sneezing, but often no mention of asymptomatic spread, long-range transmission or need for ventilation.
Do better.

Oh come on @samjnichols @abcnews. When you're reporting on important health topics, you need to get the basic facts right.
The person you quote on droplet spread of covid and flu etc is dead wrong.

Virus-containing aerosol particles are produced all the time when an infectious person breathes and talks, NOT just when they cough or sneeze. They can be produced by people who are asymptomatic.
