The idea of network effects existed in 1905. Theodore Vail knew you could invent the telephone & get all the features right, but if no one was using it, it was useless. This is the cold start problem: when you don’t have any users, the product won’t work. @andrewchen#BAI2022
"Think of AI as a hammer that can solve many (not all) problems. Ask yourself whether the problem you are addressing is the right nail for this type of hammer." —@richardczhang @pearvc#BAI2022
@digHBS This seems to hold up pretty well, but I wish by now there would be more people getting training and tackling tech problems who don't have traditional tech backgrounds, to expand perspectives and diversity on technology teams
#expandmyworld is something we should all find time to do, and if @hypervisible is not part of your world, take a look because perspective matters @digHBS

@csdoctorsister There are many steps from software, to data, to decisions, and it is so important to have people questioning the tech along the way. Even then, we make mistakes and should be able to learn from them, but can't when "the institution will not comment further"
It's Thursday, so maybe take a minute to meet for the first time (or refresh your feed on) the work of the ever insightful @ChristineOrtiz. Design is a key element of inclusive tech.
@SineadOS1, want to count with me the number of women and POC this video seems to indicate are working on the future of air travel? https://t.co/E4O03yTpGW
Yup it's Thursday, time to meet (or reconnect with) an org specialist whose work is very relevant for tech leaders: @LuSeegars ; and oh yeah... he just picked up @HarvardHBS Dean's Award and today will be awarded his doctorate, so also say congrats when you check him out @dighbs
