#podcast Fadi Micaelian, CEO of Sparkdit, and Dr. Andrew Fang, Chief of Orthopedics at Kaiser South San Francisco, have joined together to help patients and doctors make better treatment decisions by considering trade-offs and patient preferences. The platform can help reduce bias and incorporate patient desires into care while considering comorbidities and other factors that may affect treatment decisions. Fadi and Andrew agree that collaboration between technologists and clinicians is essential for advancing the use of AI in healthcare to augment human intelligence and improve outcomes. #MedAI #AI #DigitalHealth #MedTech #Orthopedics #PatientDecisions #DecisionIntelligence sparkdit.com https://lnkd.in/gcNCJAjc

As AI reshapes our industry, I'm proud of the thoughtful approach our team at Vanilla is taking. Our CTO, Amjad Hussain, recently shared our guiding principles for AI integration:  - Productivity: Simplifying workflows to focus on high-impact work  - Accuracy: Ensuring transparency and user control  - Customer Trust: Prioritizing security without using customer data to train models These principles aren't just words - they're the foundation of V/AI, our purpose-built AI engine for estate planning. What excites me most is how these innovations are already enhancing our ability to serve clients. We're seeing faster onboarding, deeper insights, and more time for advisors to focus on strategic planning. But we're not stopping here. As Amjad emphasized, we're committed to building in partnership with our customers and the broader wealth management industry.  #justvanilla https://lnkd.in/gf2Wfe44

During yesterday's LibreQoS APNIC webinar, I posed the question: won't more bandwidth solve these problems? As Herbert Wolverson said, yes, more bandwidth is good, but, still these problems remain if queueing is done incorrectly. Here's my take on why bandwidth alone is not as good as bandwidth + good queueing policies: Generally it was believed that 'data is important, so don't throw it away; hang on to it and send it later'. In practice, this has proven to be suboptimal as two issues may emerge: 1) latency increases for some flows due to heavy demand from other flows using the same bottleneck link, 2) even a single flow can have excessive latency due to aspects of typical TCP behavior (referred to bufferbloat) when the buffers grew large enough that the data being buffered was retransmitted anyway. It turns out that not all data is equally important. Active Queue Management is the art of deciding priorities, both in deciding what data to throw away, but also in allowing some later arriving data to be transmitted ahead of data in another connection that arrived before it. These problems have been studied, and good solutions have been found by using certain queueing policies in routers and switches, referred to as “fq_codel’ and “cake”. These track the different flows not by classifying the data, but by watching the behavior. Flows that send relatively little data (DNS lookups), or at a measured pace (video chat) have priority over flows that send a lot of data as quickly as possible (App and System updates, Video and ISO downloads).

Had a great conversation with Matt Blumberg, CEO of Bolster on The Daily Bolster podcast! Matt is one of the most inspiring leaders I know, he's a serial entrepreneur and author of several books for the CXOs. We discussed how CEOs can navigate periods of uncertainty, view them as opportunities, and make the most of them! Link to the conversation: https://lnkd.in/gVK4Qqfs
