Here’s what I tell my own kids about AI:

Get comfortable with change.

Learn the technology. Don't be afraid of it.

Make your voice heard.

Let's channel the fear into action and a plan. Watch my full conversation with @JBoorstin on @CNBC: https://t.co/VyWssLiXZ0

Healthcare is higher education’s least worst option. But first, higher ed needs to help free healthcare from its guilds.

Talked to @gaganbiyani, who is running a16z's new "college alternative." Some of what he told me:

"We believe in college"

"Teaching is not the primary thing we plan on doing"

Sam Altman etc are there to "come in for a talk or a fireside chat"

It'll cost "something similar to elite private universities"

How will kids pay for it? "We will see over time"

No degree, no accreditation and $42M raised from Garry Tan and more.

While classrooms and workplaces produce genuinely different kinds of human capital, it turns out that one is a much better predictor of whether a young person will launch successfully.

🚨 WE’RE BUILDING THE NEXT GENERATION OF FORWARD DEPLOYED ENGINEERS.

Not another staffing program.

Not a bootcamp.

Not resumes thrown at a client.

SkillStorm is hiring experienced software engineers with STEM degrees, paying them from Day 1, and putting them through intensive training to become client-ready Forward Deployed Engineers.

AI. Cloud. Data. Integration. Enterprise platforms.

But the technical stack is only half the equation.

We train them to operate where the technology actually meets the mission: inside complex enterprise and federal environments, solving real problems alongside the customer.

For companies: Tell us the tech stack, use case, security requirements and mission. We’ll build and train the cohort around it.

For engineers: If you already know how to build software and want to become the kind of engineer companies deploy against their hardest problems, we want to talk to you.

We don’t find people who fit the job.

We build the capability the job requires.

DMs open.

The fact that we haven’t figured out what works for workforce development has alienated a generation having a horrific time finding their way into and around work.

Why is international education in trouble? Because while globalization was upending blue-collar jobs and communities, “elite” academics and universities were getting fat on international students.

What happens when banks are the only companies recruiting a nervous generation two years ahead of time? A gravitational distortion of student life.

@raiseus_ai can partner with 4, 8 or even 12 states on our own - which is meaningful. But with @NatlGovsAssoc we can reach all governors in America. Thrilled to announce a new partnership today with NGA that will accelerate development of AI workforce policy nationally. Together, we will identify the most effective models and get them into the hands of every governor - in service to American workers. #NGASummerMeeting #WorkforceDevelopment #RAISEUS @GovWesMoore @GovCox @HolcombGov

Why has everyone fallen for pre-apprenticeships? Because there’s something mystical about the word apprenticeship.

[Gina Raimondo @GinaRaimondo]

I've said it before. I'll say it again: America has a technology strategy. We don't yet have a people strategy, and we cannot win the AI race without one. We owe our workers a credible plan that helps them transition to an AI economy. Great to join @onedecisionpod this week to chat AI, U.S. competitiveness, and the work before us to build that plan. Let's get to it! https://t.co/xNz1XMJTJo

Colleges don’t have a recruitment problem, they have a product problem. So why would anyone want to start a new college?

[Ryan Craig @ryancraigap]

If we care about building America for the next 250 years, stop investing billions in training programs for non-existent entry-level jobs in the trades and start permitting new credentials.
