What we see today is the lethal combination of people like Zuckerberg or those that write the algorithms for YouTube. 1) Having more power than anyone in history. 2) Being the worst equipped people ever to handle such roles. 3) Being entirely incapable of understanding the power they have and 4) Being too "smart" at vastly different things to understand they don't understand it, and thus need help. So that's what explains the lurch to treacherous times. …see more

Hope I'll get the chance to interview Dr. Kizzmekia S. Corbett PhD , one of the lead researchers who helped develop the #COVID19 #vaccine for Moderna . As surveys show that only about 14 percent of Black Americans trust the vaccine development process, it's important to know that this brilliant young #AfricanAmerican woman has been leading the research.

So cool to see two of my favorite things: Dota2 and machine learning intersect. A bot developed by OpenAI, an Elon Musk's artificial intelligence research non-profit , recently beat one of Dota2's top competitive players. For those unfamiliar with Dota2, it is a popular 5 vs. 5 game created by  Valve .  Here's what Elon Musk tweeted out: "OpenAI first ever to defeat world's best players in competitive eSports. Vastly more complex than traditional board games like chess & Go." cc: Greg Brockman …see more

I think about this quote all the time, "We find ourselves today connected to vast repositories of knowledge and yet we have not learned to think. In fact, the opposite is true: that which was intended to enlighten the world in practice darkens it. The abundance of information and the plurality of worldviews now accessible to us through the internet are not producing a coherent consensus reality, but one riven by fundamentalist insistence on simplistic narratives, conspiracy theories, and post-factual politics. It is on this contradiction that the idea of a new dark age turns: an age in which the value we have placed upon knowledge is destroyed by the abundance of that profitable commodity, and in which we look about ourselves in search of new ways to understand the world" James Bridle - from "New Dark Age: Technology and the End of the Future" 2018 I wish more people were working on a plan ahead. …see more

THIS HAS NOW MOVED PAST THE APPLY STAGE, SO PLEASE NO MORE APPLICATIONS I am trying to find someone absolutely brilliant to help me accomplish more. I really need someone to help me manage time / projects & expand what we can both make possible. I guess in old school terms this is an Executive Assistant -it’s a mixture of project manager, entrepreneur and most of all a fixer. If you look into “Fixers” in the film and TV industry, you will get the spirit of the role. I was going to write a long job prescriptive description, but what I really want is to hear from amazing people around this loose brief & then work around their brilliance. Full Time. Ideally NYC based. Properly paid / Overpaid. Start soon. This will be primarily for my role at Publicis, but also for side projects. Ideally will start as Freelance. More information in the image.

The scary thing for legacy companies isn’t so much the pace of change with current customers abandoning them but what happens when a whole generation enters the world with no memory of that behavior. A 15 year old today won’t be taking our cable subscriptions, shopping in department stores, considering only physical banks, etc. How does owning a car feel when you’ve grown up in a world where Uber exists, how does A full time job feel when you’ve existed in a world of casual labor. Etc …see more

For #ThrowbackThursday , it's only appropriate that I post this photo from April 2003, during my first trip to the African continent. It was at The W. E. B. Du Bois Memorial Centre for Panafrican Culture in Accra, #Ghana . I was so awed during the tour that I almost forgot to ask someone to take a picture of me near the tomb of the legendary African American scholar, activist and intellectual giant. Right before we headed to the waiting van, I shoved my camera at the nearest person and captured this image. This is where it all began. That moment is why I'm sitting in a cafe in Nairobi, #Kenya at this moment, during the best #BlackHistoryMonth I've ever had.

I have an important rule, that stemmed from my time as a singer-songwriter. 👇🏽 After every speaking gig, I walk around the room to thank everyone for coming. Every time. Even if it's not my event. The conversations that I have are awesome... and often more real than those you'll find when people only come up to you. You're reaching a new audience that way too and people never expect it. Feel free to steal this (or apply to other areas outside of speaking gigs). #justQ 🖖🏽🖤 …see more

I'm proud to share that we, at The Medical Futurist Institute, worked with the government of New Zealand to create a digital health strategy for the country which they made public. It includes not only our definition of digital health (that truly warms my heart) but also the summary we made about implementing it nation-wide. https://bit.ly/2Njn7aq Besides this (and the ones in Australia and Canada) I only know about a few countries that have a digital health strategy on a national level (not just technology or healthcare strategy, but specifically digital health). Do you know of any? #technology #digitalhealth #data #health #healthcare #government …see more
