Before I started my tech startup Artificial Intelligence (AI) really wasn't on my radar. I was somewhat aware of autonomous driving vehicles, but apart from that I didn't see how AI was going to have an impact in my life.

Why Your Degree Is Useless, Why The Company You Work For Is Full Of Idiots & Why Nothing Works!!!
It seems that further education is not producing productive graduates with a valuable skill set. As a result, young graduates are not able to find jobs and a lot of them are having to do unpaid internships. Just the other day when I was out for dinner I had a quick chat with a waitress. … Continue reading Why Your Degree Is Useless, Why The Company You Work For Is Full Of Idiots & Why Nothing Works!!!

We launched a new phase of our app for our patients and Primary Care services this week. The build for this phase was huge and we have been steadily working on it for the previous four months (designing, building, testing, messing up ad nauseum).

The decisions you've made so far have gotten you to where you are. However, the decisions that you make now, going forward, don't need to be and in a lot of cases should not be influenced by what you've done in the past. Every decision is an opportunity to stand still for a… Continue reading Decisions
