As if I need more proof
This time a triple serving of AAA in healthcare
Apple, Amazon, and Alphabet make news daily. Here’s a dose:
Apple is hiring heavily in their healthcare department.
The opposite of Amazon making a move, their Alexa program manager leaving for a healthcare startup. But maybe it’s just an instance of early recon and they’ll be acquiring?
And finally, Google AI believes it can detect Liver failure a full 48 hours sooner than traditional methods.
What commonplace healthcare practices do we use today that will be laughably ancient in just a few short years?

But this one is not an Act of God
I wonder, by the time it’s said and done, what the bill will be to address 100% of this cyber attack on the state of Louisana’s computer systems. A state that has spent billions on replacing infrastructure after Katrina, and now they could be compromised because of a hacker. This is becoming more and more common to see these HUGE breaches, and frankly it’s far more frightening to me than what the media actually pays attention to.
