Jessica Malaty Rivera is an infectious disease epidemiologist and science communicator renowned for making complex public health information accessible, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. While initially premed at USC, she pivoted to studying health promotion and disease prevention, and worked in the nonprofit sector after college. She was later recruited to research emerging biological threats at Georgetown University and simultaneously decided to pursue a master's degree there in biohazardous threat agents and emerging infectious diseases. While she's always loved science, she began to realize that where she truly excelled was in “speaking science.” And the deeper Rivera got into infectious disease epidemiology—whether through work or academia—the more she realized how critical the communications aspect of science was to public health. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, she joined The Atlantic to lend her expertise to the COVID Tracking Project to provide publicly available, comprehensive data on COVID-19 cases in real time. She then began using Instagram to explain and interpret global health news, unexpectedly gaining a large following for her easy-to-understand information. Over the past five years, she has grown her platform, launched a Substack, and is currently completing a Doctorate in Public Health from Johns Hopkins University, all while remaining dedicated to science facts and public health literacy.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

312: „Du darfst dich fühlen – und dich halten.“

Nicht jedes KI-Tool zählt: Was wirklich Business Impact hat   In diesem kurzen, aber prägnanten Impuls teilt Torsten eine zentrale Beobachtung aus dem aktuellen KI-Markt: Der Fokus vieler Unternehmer liegt zu sehr auf den neuesten Tools – anstatt auf deren tatsächlichen Nutzen. Es geht nicht darum, jedem Hype hinterherzulaufen, sondern zu verstehen, welche Technologien echte Wirkung entfalten. Michael Schmid auf LinkedIn: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelschmid-ki/   Innovationen ohne Wirkung? Der KI-Markt im Wandel ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini oder Mistral – die Innovationswelle rollt. Doch die entscheidende Frage bleibt: Was davon brauchst du wirklich? Nur weil ein Tool neu ist oder gerade „gehyped“ wird, heißt das nicht, dass es für dein Business relevant ist. Viele der aktuellen Releases bieten keinen echten Anwendungsfall, der dein Geschäftsmodell beeinflusst, wenn das Tool morgen nicht mehr verfügbar wäre.   Businesskritische KI statt Tool-Spielerei Ein Beispiel: Manus AI. Trotz medialer Aufmerksamkeit fehlt hier für viele Anwender ein klarer Business Case. Wirklich entscheidend ist, ob ein KI-Werkzeug einen kritischen Prozess unterstützt – so sehr, dass seine Abwesenheit ein Problem darstellen würde. Nur dann spricht man von Impact. Genau das ist der Maßstab, an dem du Tools prüfen solltest.   Von Prinzipien statt Plattformen lernen Statt jedes neue Feature zu testen, geht es bei DIE KOERTINGS darum, die Mechanismen hinter der Technologie zu verstehen. Warum? Weil Prinzipien über Plattformen stehen. Wer weiß, wie KI funktioniert, kann sie flexibel einsetzen – unabhängig davon, ob das Tool nun ChatGPT, Claude oder etwas völlig Neues ist.   KI in den Alltag bringen – mit Wirkung Der wahre Fortschritt liegt in der Integration kleiner, wirksamer KI-Prozesse in deinen Alltag. Nicht spektakulär, aber effektiv. E-Mails automatisieren, Recherchen beschleunigen, Content vorbereiten – genau hier beginnt der messbare Mehrwert. Unternehmen, die das verstanden haben, werden nachhaltiger profitieren als jene, die auf jedes neue Tool aufspringen.   Fazit Nicht jedes Tool ist ein Gamechanger – aber jedes KI-Element, das echte Arbeit abnimmt, hat seinen Wert. Entscheidend ist, ob du damit deine Abläufe verbessern, Zeit sparen oder Qualität steigern kannst. Setz auf Tiefe statt Breite, Wirkung statt Wow-Effekt – und finde heraus, wo KI für dich geschäftskritisch wird.     Noch mehr von den Koertings ...  Das KI-Café ... jede Woche Mittwoch (>350 Teilnehmer) von 08:30 bis 10:00 Uhr ... online via Zoom .. kostenlos und nicht umsonstJede Woche Mittwoch um 08:30 Uhr öffnet das KI-Café seine Online-Pforten ... wir lösen KI-Anwendungsfälle live auf der Bühne ... moderieren Expertenpanel zu speziellen Themen (bspw.

Federated Farmers has launched a petition calling for KiwiSaver rules to be changed to help young farmers get their foot on the ladder. The petition's launch has been timed to coincide with Fieldays, where thousands of farmers, industry leaders and politicians will gather at Mystery Creek. Federated Farmers' banking spokesperson Richard McIntyre says farming is very capital intensive and young farmers need a boost in the name of fairness. "Kiwi farmers are really struggling to put that money aside and a lot of them are actually deciding not to put money into KiwiSaver and basically scrimp and save because they know they need all the money they can get to actually get their foot in the door."

On this week's episode of Grumpy Old Geeks, we kick things off with the glorious meltdown of two of our least favorite Bond villains: Elon Musk and Donald Trump. Not only is their public pissing match tanking Tesla's market cap, but now Trump's launching a crypto wallet to… fund freedom? Or at least funnel it straight to his latest shell game. Meanwhile, someone at DOGE admitted the U.S. government wasn't entirely incompetent, so naturally, they got fired. Efficiency is un-American, after all.In the news, Ukraine leveled up with an unprecedented drone blitz on Russian airbases using—you guessed it—open source software. GitHub just became a geopolitical weapon. Back home, Nebraska wants to unplug your kids, Florida's trying (and failing) to legislate dopamine, and Tesla's panicking that their crash data might expose how their “Full Self-Driving” is really just short bus autopilot. And because the AI dystopia train never stops: OpenAI's bot is recommending meth to recovering addicts, Meta's replacing humans with risk-assessing algorithms, and one “AI startup” turned out to be 700 dudes in Bangalore with a decent VPN. Cue the dramatic zoom on Diabolus Ex Machina.Media Candy this week is a buffet: Downton Abbey finally closes up shop, Stranger Things 5 sets a date, and Foundation still sucks. Marc Maron's locking the gates for good, Garbage drops a surprisingly optimistic album, and Hollywood's quietly been using AI like it's a studio intern who doesn't need sleep. Over in The Library, Jason's back with Hitchhiker's Guide and Brian dives in to Michael Palin's Python diaries—because reading actual books is still a thing, damn it. Plus: Dave Bittner wants to “go antiquing” with Amy Sedaris with a Ben Franklin playbook. Closing shout-outs go to the legendary Loretta Swit—Hot Lips forever—and yes, we finally answer the question nobody asked: what is under a Jawa's hood?Sponsors:Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

In episode 301 of Business Coaching Secrets, host Karl Bryan and Rode Dog celebrate their podcasting consistency and dive deep into questions from listeners—including a big one about whether a young entrepreneurial couple should buy a home or rent and invest. The episode also features a highlight reel of the most impactful strategies and mindset shifts from over 300 episodes. Karl shares proven business-building principles, mental frameworks for success, and a healthy dose of “moment of Zen” wisdom for coaches looking to accelerate growth and happiness. Key Topics Covered Should Entrepreneurs Buy or Rent Their Home? Karl unpacks the personal and financial considerations of this classic question, emphasizing that there's no one-size-fits-all answer. He explains that buying a home isn't just a financial calculation—it carries significant psychological value, especially for young business owners looking to provide stability. However, the decision should fit their financial reality and leverage their specific strengths—in this case, the couple's landscaping skills could be used to add value immediately to a property. Business vs. Stocks vs. Real Estate Karl breaks down the three pathways to wealth: stocks (betting on others), real estate (slow, steady, leveraged returns), and business (potential for rapid compounding). He argues that building your own business is statistically the fastest way to wealth—then using that cash flow to invest in real estate is the billionaire's formula. Real Estate Acquisition Frameworks Get Karl's tactical real estate advice: Only buy if you can secure an instant gain (buying below value), look for houses where you can add a room or bathroom, and always try to buy wholesale, not retail. Proximity to schools, cul-de-sacs, and the power of leveraging professional skills are all discussed. Major Needle-Moving Strategies from 300 Episodes Karl recaps favorite discoveries—such as Gary Vaynerchuk's “loss leader” strategy, buying customers with irresistible front-end offers, and why coaches should focus relentlessly on building and demonstrating value, not just learning theory. Mindset, Motivation & Zen Rode Dog and Karl discuss powerful mindset exercises, like envisioning your 90-year-old self as both a source of gratitude and as your wisest mentor. They stress the difference between “studying” and “training”—taking actionable steps beats endless preparation. The Trap of Perfection & The Power of Consistency Reflecting on 301 episodes, they celebrate outlasting “podfade” by showing up consistently. Perfection isn't the goal—progress and real-world impact are. Notable Quotes “Consistency over talent all day long—twice on Sunday.” – Karl Bryan “Three ways to make money: stocks, real estate, business. The richest people in the world build businesses, then buy real estate.” “Clarity first, then you add the power, then you add the gasoline.” “You don't stop at learning. You start at learning and then you get to understanding.” “Most people are afraid of not being enough—and of having love taken away. You've got dreams to pursue, not people to impress.” Actionable Takeaways 1. Focus energy on your business first. If you're an entrepreneur, channel resources into doubling your business before spreading thin with passive investments. Business is the vehicle that generates maximum leverage. 2. Only buy real estate below value and with value-add potential. Look for wholesale deals where improvements (like adding a room or landscaping) increase equity. Use your unique skills to your advantage. 3. Use “loss leader” strategies. Borrow Gary Vee's model: attract clients with irresistible front-end offers and then upsell to high-margin services through storytelling and value. 4. Train, don't just study. Committing information to muscle memory—whether with sales, client demonstrations, or mindset work—outperforms passive learning. 5. Tap your 90-year-old self as a mentor. Visualize your older, wiser self for daily gratitude and perspective. Let that version guide your daily choices. 6. Consistency > Perfection. Keep showing up and iterating—winning comes from staying in the game.

Sherweb has launched a white-label self-service portal aimed at empowering managed service providers (MSPs) and their clients by streamlining operational tasks. This innovative platform enables clients to manage their technology licenses, subscriptions, and payments independently, reducing the need for service providers to handle routine inquiries. According to Rick Stern, Senior Director of Platform at Sherweb, this autonomy not only expedites the resolution of simple requests but also allows MSPs to concentrate on strategic initiatives. The portal features automated invoicing, curated service catalogs, and integrated chat support, and is already in use by over 450 MSPs following a successful pilot program.The podcast also discusses the evolving landscape of artificial intelligence (AI) pricing models, with companies like Globant and Salesforce adopting usage-based approaches. Globant has introduced subscription-based AI pods that allow clients to access AI-powered services through a token-based system, moving away from traditional effort-based billing. Salesforce is experimenting with flexible pricing structures, including conversation and action-based models, to better align with the value delivered by AI services. These shifts indicate a critical inflection point in how AI services are monetized, emphasizing the need for IT service providers to rethink their offerings in light of usage-based economics.Concerns regarding the unauthorized use of generative AI tools in organizations are highlighted by a report from Compromise, which reveals that nearly 80% of IT leaders have observed negative consequences from such practices. The survey indicates significant worries about privacy and security, with many IT leaders planning to adopt data management platforms and AI monitoring tools to oversee generative AI usage. Additionally, advancements in AI are showcased through a Stanford professor's AI fund manager that outperformed human stock pickers, while a study reveals limitations in AI's ability to make clinical diagnoses from radiological scans.The podcast concludes with a discussion on the role of the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), which is facing an identity crisis due to its increasing complexity and the misalignment of its responsibilities. Experts suggest reevaluating the CISO role to better address modern cybersecurity threats. The episode also touches on the implications of generative AI in education, highlighting concerns about its impact on critical thinking and learning processes. Overall, the podcast emphasizes the need for IT service providers to navigate the evolving landscape of AI and cybersecurity with a focus on governance, accountability, and sustainable practices. Four things to know today 00:00 Sherweb's White-Labeled Portal Signals MSP Shift Toward Scalable, Client-Centric Service Models03:31 AI Forces Billing Revolution: Globant and Salesforce Redefine How Tech Services Are Priced06:49 From Shadow AI to Specialized Tools: Why Governance, Not Hype, Defines AI's Next Phase12:46 From CISOs to Classrooms to Code: Why AI Forces a Strategic Rethink Across the Enterprise This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by: https://www.huntress.com/mspradio/https://cometbackup.com/?utm_source=mspradio&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=sponsorship All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

John Arnold built his fortune in energy trading by surrounding himself with smart people, maintaining emotional detachment, sensing market imbalances through first-principles analysis, and focusing with laser intensity on a single niche until he dominated it completely. Now he's applying that same analytical rigor to philanthropy, where he's discovered that changing human behavior for the long term proves far more challenging than predicting natural gas prices, and that the academic research meant to guide social policy is often riddled with perverse incentives and poor methodology. Tyler and John discuss his shift from trading to philanthropy and more, including the specific traits that separate great traders from good ones, the tradeoffs of following an "inch wide, mile deep" trading philosophy, why he attended Vanderbilt, the talent culture at Enron, the growth in solar, the problem with Mexico's energy system, where Canada's energy exports will go, the hurdles to next-gen nuclear, how to fix America's tripartite energy grid, how we'll power new data centers, what's best about living in Houston, his approach to collecting art, why trading's easier than philanthropy, how he'd fix tax the US tax code and primary system, and what Arnold Ventures is focusing on next.
