Covering a busy week in search this episode closes with a 20 minute interview with CEO of A.I. driven search engine You.com, Richard Socher. Hosts Jim Hedger and Kristine Schachinger talk about Google's freshly launched June2024 Spam Update, some Reddit heavy SERPS, unstoppable AI Overviews, the beneficial myth of traffic diversity, the ups and downs of crawl spikes, Microsoft's recall of Microsoft Recall, and a whole lot more. In the days before the show was recorded, Jim visited Web Summit's massive Collision Conference 2024 where big money, big ideas, and big organizations meet in a three day intellectual frenzy. Jim speaks with one of the earliest pioneers of A.I., Richard Socher in a one-on-one interview recorded near the end of Collision 2024 in Toronto. CEO of You.com, Richard leads what is arguably the most innovative newer search engine. Combining generative AI from several sources with algorithmic search, You.com is working to build and perfect a set of highly proficient A.I. assistants designed around the idea that information should be easily accessible and easy to make use of. It was a fun conversation and a great chance to ask questions of one of the driving forces behind A.I. in search.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/webcology/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

I always take a deep breath and keep that moment to myself, reminding myself that everything's going to be okay. And you know what? It usually will be okay. Thoughts On Breathing Deepak Chopra introduced me to breath work a couple of years ago. I spent a lot of time with him, and he always talks about activating your vagus nerve. He taught me to practice inhaling and exhaling one side of your nose and then the other. I believe that just doing that right now can completely change our demeanor. Bullying Story Growing up as an Egyptian brown girl in Minnesota, surrounded by blonde hair and blue eyes, I stood out as the only diverse student in my school. Throughout elementary and most of high school, I was different from my classmates. Back then, without the Internet, many people didn't understand my Arab and Egyptian background. I was often called names like “camel jockey” or “towel head,” and when the song “Walk Like an Egyptian” came out, kids would mimic the dance at me. I faced a lot of bullying because of my ethnicity. Nowadays, people embrace and celebrate my Egyptian culture, but back then, it was a source of pain. I believe that mindfulness could have made a difference, helping people realize the impact of their words and actions on others' feelings. We've learned and unlearned a lot since then, and I think mindfulness plays a crucial role in that evolution.

Healthcare currently places a significant burden on patients and clinicians. Patients must explain their situation repeatedly to strangers who only have a few minutes for them and hope that they believe them enough to help them navigate the healthcare system. Clinicians are working under extreme pressure, and without sufficient infrastructure support. Dr. Alika Lafontaine, the President of the Canadian Medical Association (CMA) is looking to change that and make culturally safe care the norm for all. Healthcare IT Today had the opportunity to catch up with Dr. Lafontaine at the 2023 Collision Conference held in Toronto. We asked him about the various initiatives that he is championing through the CMA, including implementing culturally safe care.

On today's episode I'm joined by investor, entrepreneur, event promoter, community creator, spiritual seeker and overall rad dad, Chris Schultz!Chris and I met in New Orleans while we were both deeply integrated in the post-Hurricane Katrina entrepreneurial wave. Chris' start-up incubator, LaunchPad, helped several early-stage businesses come to market by providing capital, mentorship and networking opportunities for growth to founders of all types. He also played a pivotal role in the Collision Conference, TribeCon, LaunchFest and many other events at the intersection of technology, community and entertainment.Now making his home in Northern California, Chris and his wife, Anne, have launched a nascent music festival called Cosmico Fest (which has one event in Todos Santos, Mexico and the other in Healdsburg, CA) with the stated mission of building community and love through incredible musical experiences. You may say that “creating community” is in Chris' blood, and you'd be right. It's one of the things I like most about this guy.I hope you enjoy this conversation with Chris, let's get into it!About Chris Schultz:I'm your first believer - Yes, you can do it. When we're together IRL, my goal is to encourage you. (We all hear "that'll never work" enough.) When we're not together, I write to educate and inspire.Work Digital: I help companies build AI software to give their employees superpowers and their customers 'yay technology!' moments. I've built software for & invested in 3 unicorns. Live Analog: I'm writing a book called Analog. It's a love letter to my father who inspired me to live my life as an analog to his.

The guest this time is Alika Lafontaine, President of the Canadian Medical Association. Alika is an award-winning physician and the first Indigenous doctor listed in Medical Post's 50 Most Powerful Doctors. He was born and raised in Treaty 4 Territory in southern Saskatchewan and has Metis, Oji-Cree, and Pacific Islander ancestry.Questions for Alika include:In a recent post on LinkedIn you wrote: "I was admitted to medical school through an affirmative action program... we need to change the conversation around affirmative action and meritocracy. The current narrative presumes applicants aren't qualified. We are. And sometimes, we're over-qualified. Let's also be blunt about “merit.” Its subjective. It can be gamed. Meritocracy is whatever the person in charge thinks is valuable, and as statistics show, decision-makers remain white and male. It's human nature to value what is familiar and devalue what is not." Share more about your experiences and why we need to change the narrative around affirmative action and meritocracy. You were part of a panel discussion on Indigenous data sovereignty at the recent Collision Conference in Toronto. Can you tell us about the discussion and why Indigenous data sovereignty is so important?How is this particularly important in the healthcare field? You were in Winnipeg in July for the Premiers' Council of the Federation meetings. Prior to these meetings, the CMA issued a series of recommendations for Premiers to consider. Can you tell us about those recommendations?What's your impression of how the meeting between premiers went? Are you satisfied that they are working to improve the health systems across the country in a meaningful way?More About Dr. Alika LafontaineDr. LafontainThis episode is supported by Right Management North America and ManpowerGroup.
