@usopen @carlosalcaraz It was the haircut

Carlos Alcaraz defeats Jannik Sinner to reclaim the US Open title and the world No.1 ranking‼️

@joshuapliu The questions I get are so specific to the patient and are usually not ones with hard answers. Should I ride my bicycle 2 weeks after surgery? Well depends on how fast, what surgery, how you are recovering, etc… no study is going to have guidance on that

Lots of hype around using Generative AI to tackle patient portal message overload by letting AI draft replies... ... but isn't the better solution to empower patients with better self-care education and workflows so that many messages can be prevented in the first place? 🤔

youtube.com/watch?v=VHwMje… I tried 7 different ambient scribes... and was surprised what I found.

@StuartBlitz Haha that would be crazy if they made prices transparent for us. There’s absolutely no reason to for them 😂

It’s so hard to how much you’ll pay for a doctor check up, labs, procedures, or even meds using your health insurance. We need an automatic way when you scan your insurance card it just tells you. This can’t be hard. Is anyone doing this?

@rikrenard Abridge doesn't have >40M ARR?

When you look at the # of companies that are building in the medical scribe space you can only think of one thing: it's going to be a blood bath If these small players are not working towards an M&A exit soon, they will be fucked big time

@BenXuLab @LeeRetinaLab @USCEye @NIH @USC @EricZWeintraub Those are tough to get. Congrats!

Sunny Lee @LeeRetinaLab and I started residency together @USCEye 11 years ago. This year we both received our first @NIH R01s as colleagues and @USC faculty! Thanks to USC and @EricZWeintraub for detailing our shared journey, friendship, and fortune! tinyurl.com/xulab05

@paulg Submitting the application today! Looking forward to it.

Today is the deadline for applying to the summer 2024 Y Combinator batch. Don't be deterred from applying if you're not very far along yet. In a typical batch, about 40% of the startups YC funds are just an idea.

@MihaelaVDS This is an excellent foundational work in causal AI in medicine. With traditional statistics and and ML I’ve found a natural cap of around 0.8 AUC in predictions from retinal imaging. Have you seen higher in any examples?

I've worked tirelessly on cracking this problem with generations of students. It’s an extremely challenging area of ML and seeing it come closer to clinical use, where it will empower clinicians & patients alike, is very satisfying: nature.com/articles/s4159… #AI #PatientEmpowerment

@nealkhosla I think that really showcases the importance of teams to solve healthcare problems. We can get really tunnel visioned thinking from our own perspective alone

Most people in healthcare really only know their little slice of it. There is a dearth of people who think about the system as a whole and know enough details about the slices to make those thoughts valuable. And there are even fewer who also understand technology.

@shway_ @jacobcollier Definitely!! Amazing harmonies

@CaizenEye Are you a @jacobcollier fan??

One of the most beautiful arrangements I’ve ever heard youtu.be/Lz1LEYxFQ5Q?si…

@DGlaucomflecken You get to go outside when it’s still bright?

Me watching somebody get dunked on for saying “doctors work 9-4”

@DGlaucomflecken Glaucomflecken, D?

If you use my content in your academic conference presentation, you legally have to include me in the author line of your next publication.

@annarmonaco @ycombinator Great thread and very inspiring

1) Made a plan: We already had an idea, so all we needed to do was make as much progress as possible in the time we had. We were committed to not seeing daylight for an entire week to make our application as good as possible (this also coincided perfectly with our application for Prod which encourages their applicants to do just this). We wanted to prove that we could both build and sell, so we came up with an ambitious plan to do just that in a week.

5 days until the application deadline to apply to @ycombinator ! Claire and I started building our company Paradigm ~1 week before applying to yc, applied on the exact minute the application was due, and got in. Here’s how we did it:

@vkhosla @atulbutte @TEDTalks Knowledge but more so entertainment is created by the human imagination for other humans. Can that creative process ever be replicated by a machine and be as impactful to a human audience? Generative AI is only trained by the data we give it. Humans are influenced by everything.

Entrepreneurs, with passion for a vision, invent the future they want. These are my predictions for abundant, awesome, technology-based, Possible Tomorrows (2035-2049) ... if we allow them to happen! #TED2024 @TEDTalks

@YichengB That’s a great point.

@CaizenEye It’s technically not against the rules if what is being copy forwarded if factually correct and reflective of services provided. I’d be more concerned if insurance companies are using it to deny care

NVIDIA has released FREE courses on AI. No payment needed. Here are 8 free courses you don't want to miss:

@StuartBlitz Respect to Keisei Tominaga what a baller

When VC’s who invested in health tech companies realize contracted ARR doesn’t mean real ARR

@StuartBlitz 21C museum hotel. It’s a museum and a hotel

What’s a fun, cool hotel to stay in downtown Chicago?
