@TheAngryEpi @CarnegieMellon @GeorgiaTech Well, there's a key difference: Conventional contract tracing apps notify the user after they are exposed. We notify *before* you're exposed.

@TheAngryEpi A new way to find disease: know how far away it is and when to take precautions. NOVID can incentivize *individuals* to wear masks, even in the absence of mandates. Used by @CarnegieMellon and @GeorgiaTech. novid.org. Let us know if you'd like to chat.

Now that there are a number of areas of transmission in NSW, I'm thinking it could be good to try this new app out. novid.org #covidnsw

Po: The key is, we are making a viral app to fight a virus spreading on the same network that the virus spreads on. @lexfridman: So you’re trying to out-virus the virus? @PoShenLoh: That’s right. That's exactly right.

@MarylouiseMcla1 @YouTube Thanks for sharing this new approach to contact tracing! Delta variant's faster spread is beating old containment methods. This new approach uses game theory and network theory to align incentives: it's the first app that helps healthy people avoid getting sick themselves.

We're rounding off #AAPIHM by honoring @PoShenLoh. Recently, he founded @NOVIDApp, an app to fight disease. Loh views himself as a fusion of Asian and American cultures. To AAPI students, he says, "You can flourish in two different cultures." Read more: bit.ly/2SHs14D

@NOVIDApp @PoShenLoh @lexfridman This was the most profound moment of the interview. The @NOVIDApp use of the network the virus uses to travel through a community to deny a virus access prior to the event as opposed to after it had passed. Great interview & great work @PoShenLoh & @NOVIDApp Team!

Lex is remarkable. He's conversational across wide range of intellectual/philosophical topics. Thanks for highlighting new game-theoretic approach to pandemics that we discovered: aligning incentives so even selfish individualistic behavior contributes societal disease control.

@timusician Let us know how your friends feel about NOVID! Oh, and the good news is, you can absolutely install both. The apps provide different types of information to the user.

@NOVIDApp Almost everyone in my immediate circle doesn't like SA Government's contact tracing app. This is a much much better alternative.
