What's the one thing you've always wanted to try on your podcast, but never dared to do? Today, we dusted off the mailbag and found some inspiration in a question from a fellow podcaster: “What's one thing every podcaster should try at least once?” This got us thinking about all the ways we can break out of our routines and breathe new life into our shows. Today we share the experiments and challenges that have made the biggest difference for us. For some, it's trying a new storytelling style, or getting out from behind the desk to record in the real world, or even letting someone else take the reins and interview you for a change. We discussed going live, the lessons you learn from editing your own episodes, and the value of connecting with your audience in new ways.

I want to introduce a new series to Off Gassing: Round Table DiscussionsThe interviews will always be the main course of the show. I would like to think of The Round Table as side dishes. I came up with this idea while on ScubaBoard, a place where many divers of all levels get together and have discussions. ScubaBoard is a great place for any diver to gather information and learn but as many of you know ScubaBoard can get very heated sometimes. The goal is to get these divers together to have respectful and engaging conversations. Round Table episodes will be released as I record them. Stay tuned and hit that subscribe button so you don't miss them when they drop.      It has always been a goal of mine to keep learning and seek out the why behind different perspectives, methods, and philosophies. I became a recreational scuba instructor a few years ago, and even then, I knew there was so much more to learn. I have taken this past year off to further my own education and hope to get back into teaching towards the end of this year. With each Round Table, interview, and different courses I take, I hope to learn and add to my toolbox to become a stronger, safer, better instructor and overall diver.

He explores what leaders must know as AI becomes more prevalent in the healthcare industry.  Defining AI. Dr. Glaser defines AI as a machine that perceives its environment, and based on that perception, takes steps to maximize chances of success. One type of AI is deep learning, which is when a machine is fed large amounts of data and can then output an interpretation of new data.Data Challenges. AI rests on data. Data may need to be cleaned before use, adding extra steps. Data may be skewed or biased, potentially introducing ethical concerns. Healthcare adds an additional challenge of validation as doctors don't always agree on diagnosis given the same data. Implementation. Dr. Glaser recommends the CIO or CDO put together a multidisciplinary AI committee that evaluates potential AI products and selects a certain number to pilot. The committee can define who is accountable for conducting and tracking the pilot, but ultimately the entire C-suite is accountable for AI support and implementation.  Relevant Links:Check out Dr. Glaser's book “Advanced Introduction to Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare”Check out articles written by Dr. Glaser in the Harvard Business Review
