flagship promise across tech companies that are developing artificial general intelligence or super intelligence has been cure cancer.
Don't we want to cure cancer?
How could you be against the development of this technology?
You're holding up cancer treatments.
Think of the children here.
On a deep human level, that's not a promise that you throw around lightly or flippantly, given how deep of a problem this is and how deeply this affects everyone's lives.
In general, grand challenges just don't tend to be
sort of intelligence limited problems.
There are problems around data, there are problems around incentives, there are problems around coordination.
At the basic science level, there's actually very little data that is in a format or accessible to being trained by AI.
Super intelligence cannot model something that does not have first principles and does not have data.
We have a system that fundamentally rewards incremental thinking and not necessarily rewards out of the box thinking.
So like step one is like, how can we actually use AI systems to encourage out of the box ideas just as much as the inside of the box ones to get more of those going?
Thank you so much for having me, Gus.
Absolutely.
Thank you, Gus.
So my background, I am a physician and scientist by training.
And before I went to medical school, had a former career in public health.
And so throughout my career, I've touched a lot of different aspects of the health care and discovery ecosystem from medicine.
the macro public health side of things down to being a postdoc and doing bench research to being in the clinic to co-founding a startup.
