For 20 years, @BrownUniversity and Providence were my home. Yesterday, our beloved, magical, idyllic campus was desecrated. I mourn for the victims, their families, and everyone affected by this unimaginable tragedy. While I know that Brunonians around the world will come together to support each other, I also know that College Hill will never again be the same. 💔

I’m praying for everyone at @BrownUniversity and on College Hill right now 🙏🏽

They said it couldn't be done.
They said it *shouldn't* be done.

We tried anyways.

Today we're launching Ash, the first AI designed for therapy, and announcing $93M in funding from @radicalventures @ForerunnerVC @a16z @felicis @trailmixvc @joinsequel and many more.

We've had 50k people using it, with pretty transformative results. Here's my co-founder @danielreidcahn telling our story. Link to Ash below.

I was invited to dinner at a conference in Vegas with the exec team of our #1 competitor (it was a last minute pity invite -- they were rolling deep and I was there solo). I was really hesitant but decided to take the risk. It went fine, they were super nice, and it eased a lot of tension between us. Two years later, they acquired my company. (Note: I did get food poisoning at that dinner, but in the end it was more than worth it 🤣)

@RobSandIA Congrats Rob - I'm rooting for you!

What a moment last night as a double rainbow filled the skies above Centreville Bank Stadium during the final minutes of @RhodeIslandFC’s first match in the new facility.

[Rajiv Kumar, MD @RajivKumarMD]

Last night's @RhodeIslandFC home opener was truly spectacular! 11,000 raving fans packed into a gorgeous new stadium, perfect weather, helicopter flyover, rainbow over the field, and a feisty match. Congratulations to everyone who made this happen!

@JonPincince For sure! Although I find it pretty hard to keep up a conversation while running. 😅

[Rajiv Kumar, MD @RajivKumarMD]

@brainworksri I'll check it out! Does it work for treadmill runs or only outdoors?

[Rajiv Kumar, MD @RajivKumarMD]

I get really bored while running. I want an AI running coach to motivate me, give me feedback, and entertain me while I run (e.g. teach me something, read me the news, tell me a story). Does an app like this exist, or is anyone building it?

[Rajiv Kumar, MD @RajivKumarMD]

@JonPincince Yeah but I want the voiceover to be upbeat, bite sized, integrated with feedback about my run, and paced appropriately :)
