This is how the various Crypto Pyramid Schemes work. If you've a degree of influence or some credibility: 1)Buy your Coin of choice. 2)Pump it as much as you can. Leverage the power of today's media that loves articles that look fantastical and drive clicks.  3)Make outlandish predictions about it's growth. 4)Recruit others, They hear this & buy in ( so the price goes up) 5)You now have an army of people who will now pump & hype the currency for you and passionately so, after all they have skin in the game.  6)By now you have a good growth history and trajectory.  7)You celebrate those who you recruited earlier to "predict the growth" which now means the world thinks those people somehow objectively can see the future or knew more.  8) People now listen to those "gurus" , and thus their predictions inherently drive growth.  And here's the thing. Since all assets prices are set by trust and confidence, the currency could create its own sustainable value & everyone is exonerated and smug. Or probably 99% of the time the whole thing crashes. But I promise you this. 99.9999999% of the people promoting these things are people who own this stuff and are pumping it irrationally to create their own wealth. The more outrageous the headline the better. That’s why this is dangerous. …see more

Interview with Charlie Hoehn : "THE OPPOSITE OF PLAY ISN'T WORK, IT'S DEPRESSION." There’s a strong evolutionary component to play. Our bodies were built to hunt and gather and move. Humans aren’t meant to stay still. “The research is pretty clear. They have done experiments. They’ve deprive animals of play—they give them love, nurturing, food, shelter, all the things they need to survive— but they deprive them of play, the animal inevitably grows up to be socially and emotionally crippled," Charlie said. Charlie calls it “chronic-play deprivation.” And I think many people suffer from that. It’s the transition from childhood to adulthood. Statistically, children laugh an average of 300 times a day. But adults laugh an average of 3-5 times a day. Charlie said he was approaching life “so seriously and joylessly. And very much in terms of what’s the output, what’s the income, what’s the money pay-off.” What’s the pay-off? I had to repeat that line. Since there never was a pay-off. It’s always a false promise society wants us to believe. So I asked, “How did you learn to play again?” THREE STEPS TO PLAY STEP #1: http://bit.ly/2tK3wFK …see more

Here is the UPDATED infographic about the 40 trends that I think shape digital health and the future of healthcare. When my book, The Guide to the Future of Medicine came out, I released an infographic about the 40 trends of digital health. I wanted to visualize the trends and innovations that shape the future of medicine from 3 perspectives: - Which stage of the delivery of healthcare and the practice of medicine is affected by that (Prevent & Prepare; Data Input & Diagnostics; Therapy & Follow-up; and Outcomes & Consequences); - Whether it affects patients or healthcare professionals; - The practicability of it (already available – green boxes; in progress – orange boxes; and still needs time – red boxes) The infographic represents the way I see the development of key trends and innovations in the process of delivering healthcare. For those interested in the same analysis from 2016, here is the original one. http://bit.ly/2XxxR9l #themedicalfuturist #digitalhealth #future #healthcare #medicine #technology #fromchancetochoice #infographic #infographics #business #health #telemedicine #genetics #healthy #innovations #consumer #research #medtech #innovation #wearable #biotech …see more

Researchers at the University of Tübingen tried to train an A.I. to learn to identify a specific fish called tench on pictures. When they looked into the A.I. to see how it tries to identify that fish, they found out that the #AI was looking for human fingers against a green background as most of the tench photos in the training data featured a fisherman holding the fish in their hands after catching it. Can you imagine how useful it would be in medicine to point out such things before an algorithm is developed? This way, we could avoid so many false negatives, false positives and bias built into the algorithms. For example, radiologists looked at the ChestXray14 dataset of X-ray images and discovered that many of the images of patients with pneumothorax had a chest drain on the image as treatment already started when doing the X-ray. A #MachineLearning algorithm tasked with identifying X-rays of pneumothorax would probably look for the drain in the images as a perfect sign of the condition (they have to perform as well as humans would do, not learn to diagnose the condition), this way, missing patients with the condition who have not been treated yet. Can you think of an example in your practice (medical or not) where such subtle observations exist? …see more

SOME THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT STUDENT LOAN DEBT - 44 MILLION Americans are in student loan debt. - There is $1.5 TRILLION in student debt., up from $200 billion in 2004. - Income for people ages 18-35 have gone DOWN since 1992. - At age 18, you can BORROW $200,000 but you can't drink a beer. - Student loan debt is the ONE debt that doesn't go away in a bankruptcy. The government WILL go after you. - Because of this, college tuitions have gone up TEN TIMES FASTER than inflation since 1977 (healthcare has gone up 3x faster). - 50% of students have student loans. Up from 15% in 1989. - The president of Quinnipiac College (where?) makes $3.5 million in salary (I just use this as an example to show where these rising tuitions are going). This has led to rising income inequality, less young entrepreneurs and innovation. Solutions: - relief of student loan debt so America remains in the lead of innovation. - Accreditation of online universities: increasing supply will reduce price. - system where investors can "buy" 10% of future income. Moving funding into the private sector. - spread awareness of companies that do not require a degree: Examples: Google, Hilton, Apple, IBM, Bank of America, Ernst & Young, etc. don't require a degree. #college #success …see more
