Jaime Teevan had so many good insights about how AI can help augment and extend our capabilities. What a great conversation!

Are you using AI to overcome the "blank page" problem? AI is great for creating content from nothing - but it introduces a new blank page: the prompt box! See fortune.com/2024/06/05/mic… for insights on how AI is evolving to not just take prompts, but to give them too!

You heard it here at #PPCC24! “The distance between early-stage AI research and models and deploying to product is very close. Right now, one of the most interesting research questions is this: how do we use AI on our own data Summarizing and creating first drafts using

Beautiful and inspiring closing advice from our exec posse at #PPCC24: “We need an abundance mindset. AI will only become real with the involvement of the people in this room. There is more than enough space for everyone.” -Vasu Jakkal “Let’s lean into the scientific method,
