    This is the same group (Ayush Chopra & Ramesh Raskar) that previously published the highly circulated (clickbait) article saying that 95% of AI pilots were failing based on extreme…

    This study was led by a PI in the MIT Media Lab who studies cameras and their impact on society. There's a reason it has a catchy headline, there's a reason you needed to fill in a…

    This reads a little bit like AI. Particularly the sentence flow of the final few lines.

    Does anyone know what this actually means for real estate brokerage fees? There are few markets which have supported 3-5% brokerage fees (even i-banking is <100bps at scale now) so…

    Given she was not only livestreaming but also physically harming patients, I'm a little surprised that she is only having her license yanked.

    Well put and I have also witnessed the same patterns at GP/LP meetings. Ironically, Calpers' excuse for their poor returns is that the "top tier" VCs (such as Sequoia) now exclude …

    Whenever I see articles like this I come back to Calpers venture returns over the last 20 years: > Calpers' venture returns have been historically lackluster. From 2000 to 2020, it…

    I enjoyed this thought experiment, but isn't it sort of a false equivalence argument? Wouldn't it make more sense as a thought experiment if only "Yes" voters could be executed onl…
