Sramana Mitra: Exactly, and the other thing on your empathy question, the fundamental issue around AI is that why is it even necessary for us to replace all healthcare with AI? It’s really powerful. Where AI is really capable and powerful is in diagnostics and non-siloed diagnostics.

I’m extremely bullish about healthcare, no question and AI in healthcare. But the trouble in education is that in the short to medium term, I think there is tremendous potential in education. Especially personalized tutoring is something I’m very, very excited and bullish about. Salman Khan is giving lots of talks about what he is doing with Khanmigo. I think personalized tutoring is an incredible opportunity.
>>>The rapid rise of generative AI technology has led to a growing concern around safety and security around the development of the technology. Backed by both Google and Amazon, Anthropic PBC is a public benefit company (PBC) that is focused on ensuring that they build systems that people can rely on and generate research about the opportunities and risks of AI.

Every time you think about it, healthcare is one of the great unsolved problem that AI can really revolutionize.

>>>I’m publishing this series on LinkedIn called Colors to explore a topic that I care deeply about: the Renaissance Mind. I am just as passionate about entrepreneurship, technology, and business, as I am about art and culture. In this series, I will typically publish a piece of art – one of my paintings – and I request you to spend a minute or two deeply meditating on it. I urge you to watch your feelings, thoughts, reactions to the piece, and write what comes to you, what thoughts it triggers, in the dialog area. Let us see what stimulation this interaction yields. For today – Tranquility VII
