This will happen in healthcare - rather than having to use your judgment about which digital health app to use for what, there will be an AI doctor superapp that knows your full personal context and auto triages across a network of subcontracted providers in the backend based on…
We discuss how AI disrupts the current app paradigm, why now for AI-assisted glasses, emerging competitive dynamics and startup biz models, and what the world could look like in a post-mobile phone era: youtube.com/watch?v=qEjTz2…

Great summary, and it's telling that Amy frames this as her advice to friends & family. Most docs do some version of this clinically-grounded, system-aware care navigation in their private lives. At @CounselHealth we're trying to democratize this type of first-touch care because…
When I help friends/family navigate the US healthcare system, here are the most common points that I try to explain: 1. Specialists: We are an extraordinarily specialized/sub specialized healthcare system. I understand your organ systems work cross functionally to produce the…
