MISRC Digital Leadership Conference
I attended this mornings MISRC Digital Leadership Conference: Charting the AI Journey and also spoke on a panel with Jean Machart and Elwin Loomis about strategy around AI.
Cris Ross from Mayo Clinic shared how they are using AI and that he believes AI will impact healthcare more than the Internet and Smartphone did. Ross also shared this good list of “Seven Technological Challenges” regarding AI.
- Data for building and validating AI
- Data for running AI
- Building AI
- Buying AI
- Implementation in workflow
- Change management with clinicians and patients
- Monitoring and managing
Listening to him present it seemed to me that it will only be a matter of time before exam rooms are all equipped with microphones where AI can transcribe the conversation between Doctor and Patient, removing the need for note taking and allowing the Doctor to be more completely engaged. This would also allow for AI to consider diagnoses that could be missed.
Jake Krings and Melissa Ludack from Target showed how they are using AI both in the store for the team experience and in their app to help with gift ideas.
I voted on October 17 via mail and thanks to the impressively well run Minnesota voting system I can confirm my ballot was accepted by the election board to be counted today. 🇺🇸🗳️☑️

For the very first time ever outside of our private events, Things 4 Good Candle Fundraiser at the Mount Olivet Holiday Boutique! A bit confusing how to setup our table and get folks our message but we are figuring it out. 🤩
Not one undecillion, but two!
Russia ordered Google to pay a fine of two undecillion roubles (roughly $20,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000). The sum is many times bigger than the world’s GDP. The fine is punishment for restrictions on Russian state media on YouTube, a website that Google owns. A Kremlin spokesperson reportedly said that he “cannot even pronounce this number”. — The Economist, World in Brief, Nov 1 2024
Yes an undecillion is a thing. What is the point of a ruling like this?
The Things 4 Good 2024 Candle Fundraiser POAP is ready to share with folks at this weekends event! It is a good example of how I’m not a designer. 😬
I just ordered an unofficial micro.blog t-shirt ! I went with blue. Thanks to Jim Mitchell for getting this available.

We started watching Jungle Cruise last night and finished it tonight. We saw it in 2021 at a drive-in and was fun to watch again. Tyler is a fan of Dwayne Johnson movies.
Upgraded to iOS 18.1 and took less than 10 minutes on the “waitlist” to get provisioned with Apple Intelligence. Looking forward to playing with this. 🧠
