If you were a graduating senior right now, would you boo a tech CEO talking about AI at your commencement?

Lots of them are. Here's what I think they're getting right, and what they're getting wrong.

At @YCombinator, I tried to fix price transparency in healthcare. The system beat me down.

Then I moved into higher ed and saw the same exact thing.

Same playbook. Different industry.

A high school junior fills out a form on Tuesday.

Texts the school on Thursday.

Reads about nursing on Saturday.

A week later, she gets a generic email from a list made before any of it happened.

The institution has forgotten her three times.

Been a founder for over a decade. I've got no comparison for the pace AI is moving right now. It's crazy!

The mistake isn't moving too fast or too slow.
It's freezing.
