On the 63rd episode of Enterprise AI Innovators, hosts Evan Reiser (co-founder and CEO, Abnormal AI) and Saam Motamedi (General Partner, Greylock Partners) talk with Lev Gonick, Chief Information Officer at Arizona State University (ASU). ASU treats AI like a product and a platform: build internal capacity, run structured grant cycles to surface real workflows, and ship a “builder” that can support tens of thousands of users. Gonick also lays out why student agency matters, and why universities that wait for vendors risk becoming “nothing but vendor management.”Quick hits from Lev:On building an internal AI acceleration team: “We literally took, initially 20 and now it's 40 people dedicated from morning till night working on platform technology, security, compliance, tooling, building tools to support what we knew that needed to grow up to be, again, a low code, no code kind of environment.”On scaling demand through structured internal grants: “We thought there be, you know, 40 or 50 great ideas, you know, as we speak today. Now we're through through four full rounds of engagements. We have over 600 projects in-flight, right now.”On fixing the friction-filled student journey with AI: “Focus in on transforming the ways in which students have to navigate incredibly, difficult, friction-filled, journey. Applying for, getting into, having to do financial aid, landing in a dorm room, [solving] some of the back office through again tools that they're using in their consumer life.”Recent Book Recommendation: Capitalism: A Global History by Sven Beckert--Like what you hear?

Of all the industries AI will transform, Kira Radinsky believes chemistry and biology will change the most. Kira is the co-founder and CTO of Diagnostic Robotics, which uses AI to automate the administrative work that's crushing healthcare teams — so clinicians can actually focus on patients. She's also the co-founder of Mana.bio, where they're accelerating drug discovery by orders of magnitude.She'll tell you she's terrible in the lab. Not because she isn't brilliant, but because she can't pipette without killing the cells. So she's thrilled that thanks to her skills in data and AI she was able to realize her childhood dream of being a scientist: “I'm not trying to automate everything… Like when, when you say automate drug discovery, I'm not gonna discover everything. I just want to accelerate it, which comes back to my childhood dream: I just didn't want to do it myself. I just want AI to replace me as a scientist. That's it.”But this episode is about more than healthcare. It's about how to build systems that get smarter over time — feedback loops, causal inference, incentivizing algorithms to take risks, and knowing when to optimize for ROI instead of accuracy. Lessons that apply whether you're building in biotech or not.We cover:How growing up Jewish in Soviet Ukraine — and fleeing to Israel just before the Gulf War — shaped Kira's obsession with predicting the futureHow she built a system that successfully predicted real-world events, including Cuba's first cholera outbreak in Cuba in 130 yearsHow Mana.bio is using AI to build "rocketships" that deliver drugs to the right cells — and how they've done in three months what used to take 20 yearsWhy predictions are only valuable if there's something you can do about them — and why that makes healthcare an ideal field for AI How to incentivize algorithms to make bolder predictions (it's easy to predict there won't be an earthquake today; it's much harder to say there will be)Why causal inference is the most underrated tool in machine learning right nowHow healthcare AI can perpetuate racial bias — and what builders need to do differentlyNote: this interview originally aired in October 2024.

From hiring for values over skills to escaping the "hero trap," Bill breaks down the three pillars of sustainable growth: team, systems, and cash.

Are you tired of constantly striving, feeling 'soul tired' and exhausted by the demands of life? Our new series, "Greater Than," dives into the powerful book of Hebrews to show you that everything you've been chasing is a lesser substitute for the one thing that can truly hold your life together: Jesus. In the first two weeks, we explore why Jesus is greater than the prophets, who only delivered fragments of God's message, and why He is greater than Moses and the Law of "work to get rest." Discover the key to stopping the drift, receiving "soul rest," and living a life anchored in the truth that the Builder of the Universe has already finished the work for your salvation.

Builder confidence in the single-family housing market slipped again in February, according to the latest Housing Market Index from the National Association of Home Builders. The index fell to 36, marking the second straight monthly decline and signaling continued weakness in builder sentiment. Affordability remains the biggest challenge. High home price-to-income ratios, elevated land costs, and stubborn construction expenses are keeping many buyers on the sidelines. Even with incentives widely available, buyer traffic remains low. In this episode, Kathy Fettke breaks down what falling builder confidence means for housing supply, pricing power, remodeling demand, and real estate investors in 2026. If inflation eases and mortgage rates follow, conditions could improve — but for now, affordability continues to shape the market.

God has not run out of mercy — not for you, not today.Saturday, Feb 21 — Psalm 127 (five verses… and it swings a sledgehammer).This is the line that ends the illusion of control:“Unless the LORD builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.” Translation: Busy doesn't equal blessed. Sweat isn't the same as significance.Psalm 127 confronts three things we keep trying to carry alone:Building: If God isn't the Builder, your “success” is a sandcastle.Protecting: If God isn't the Watchman, your anxiety is wasted effort.Providing: Stop eating the bread of anxious toil — God gives His beloved sleep.And then it turns straight to the home: Children aren't a burden — they're a heritage. But an arrow isn't dangerous on a table. An arrow is dangerous in the hand of a warrior. Parents: don't just raise happy kids. Raise kids the enemy fears.Today's question is simple and piercing: Is the Lord building your life… or are you? Put God in it all — because if He's not in it, no amount of work can make it matter.

In Episode 95 of the Land to Lots™ Podcast, Carter Froelich sits down with Scott Cox, Principal of SLC Advisors and a frequent contributor to The Builder's Daily, for a candid discussion on what is really driving builder stress right now. While margins may still look acceptable on paper, many private builders feel pressure building beneath the surface. The issue is not just today's closings, but higher-basis land in the pipeline, slower absorption, and the simple reality that time is expensive. Carter and Scott explore the difference between managing to a pro forma and managing to the market. They discuss why sales velocity often matters more than protecting the last point of margin, how to calculate the true monthly carrying cost of a community, and why that number alone can reshape pricing decisions. Scott also shares practical ways to protect backlog without losing momentum, how trapped cash impacts capital structure, and when it may be time to revisit product instead of relying only on incentives. In this episode, you'll learn: 1. Why margin concerns today are often rooted in tomorrow's land pipeline. 2. The dashboard metrics builders should be watching when absorption slows. 3. How to calculate the real monthly cost of being in a project. 4. How trapped cash impacts capital structure and future deal flow. 5. When protecting backlog makes sense and when it becomes counterproductive. 6. Why velocity protects more than revenue. 7. How to evaluate product utility against competitors in a practical way. 8. When it is time to revisit product instead of simply cutting price.

Hagen Hunt was raised on his family's farming and ranching operation and he knew that's what he wanted to do from an early age. After figuring out college wasn't for him he decided to go all in. He started picking whatever work he could find farming and ranching and eventually building fence. He saw a need for fence builders and turned that into a business alongside picking up leases to farm and turn cattle out on. Because he had a crew and equipment some bad weather brought an opportunity his way that developed into another business. Since then he has grown the farming and cattle enough that he only focuses on that. Check it out to see how Hagen turned a dream into a full time business.

When the world feels heavy, polished stories stop working. The ones that land are the honest ones — the ones that start with trouble. In this episode of The PSM Show, hosts Damion Morris and Deirdre Booth sit down with writer and strategist Joel Hoekstra for a "pull up a chair" conversation about why the best AEC stories don't begin with brilliance or technical expertise — they begin with friction, uncertainty, and what wasn't working. Joel shares how he helps marketers draw human-centered narratives out of highly technical subject matter experts, why empathy consistently beats perfection, and how the stories a firm tells (or avoids) reveal its values, culture, and client experience. You'll hear practical ways to get past "it's just what we do," including a simple interviewing move that unlocks better detail, better clarity, and better trust: "Tell me more." Joel also breaks down why headlines matter more than most firms think, how scannable structure (subheads, bullets, formatting) increases impact, and how to build reusable story "toolkits" that support proposals without relying on boilerplate. Plus, Joel introduces his START Story Formula — a clear framework marketers can use to shape case studies, Q&A prep, and project profiles: Situation → Trouble → Action → Result → Transformation Because the ribbon-cutting is a result — but what changes six months later is the transformation people actually remember. Guest bio: Joel Hoekstra Joel is a Minnesota-based content-marketing strategist and writer who helps design firms tell client-centric stories that win work. He has held marketing-communications roles at several architecture firms in Minneapolis and has written extensively about design and architecture for such publications as Metropolis, This Old House, RIBA Journal, ARCHITECT, BUILDER, and American Craft.

Robinhood isn't just adding another crypto feature—it's assembling a new exchange stack: stock tokens, an Ethereum L2 built for real-world assets, and a wallet that can plug into DeFi. Johann Kerbrat (GM of Crypto at Robinhood) joins Bankless to unpack what “24/7 markets” actually requires, why liquidity and routing are the hidden battleground for tokenized equities, and how “Certified by Robinhood” could become a distribution moat for onchain apps. Along the way, they compare Robinhood's approach to tokenization with the NYSE's 24/7 tokenized platform plans and Nasdaq's tokenized securities proposal, and dig into what U.S. regulatory clarity would need to unlock stock tokens stateside.
