3% of US vc investment in female-founded startups.
Would it be solved by having more female investors? Is the problem a lack of female founders?

A chicken-egg problem that can only be fixed by having more women in both startups and vc.

Great insights at #BarcelonaTechSpirit

As I was told when I joined Bell Labs:
"You don't have to be crazy to work here, but it helps!"

One of the most difficult things about managing a research lab is to be welcoming of intellectual weirdness.
Intellectual weirdness is sometimes accompanied by nerdy personality weirdness.
Nothing wrong with that.
But it does make management more difficult.
Most truly creative people don't fit into neat little pigeonholes with predictable outcomes.

👉To fully leverage the benefits of AI, nephrologists and other healthcare professionals need to be educated about its fundamentals and its potential applications in routine patient care!

Today’s #EndometriosisAwarenessDay. Living with #endometriosis can be challenging, exhausting and frustrating. Accepting it hasn’t been easy. But I’n getting there 💪🏻

Raising awareness is needed. We need more research, and more support, because emotional support is essential.

MUST WATCH: Years and Years

I have recently finished this miniseries that “predicts” what will the future look like from 2020 to 2030.
Amazing to see what could happen in politics and technology adoption in our daily life. Or, is it already happening?

When we say that "an algorithm is biased" we usually mean, "biased people made an algorithm." This explains why so much machine learning prediction turns into phrenology.

"La penalización de la maternidad" por @AzaharaGEspejo

Ser madre tiene consecuencias negativas en la carrera de las mujeres porque la sociedad asume que la responsabilidad del cuidado de los hijos es suya.

¿Qué deberíamos hacer?

Some areas for huge technological progress in the next 5 years:

*General-purpose AI
*Energy (particularly fission and fusion)
*VR/AR (gets to "real trend" phase)
*Bio (meaningful progress ending many diseases, at least one big gain for longevity, psychedelic medicine)
*Silicon
