AI can do incredible things, but you must remember how tools like ChatGPT operate. They are large language models, not doctors or therapists. Be very mindful of what decisions you hand over.
From ice baths and cold showers to whole-body cryotherapy, cold exposure has long been hyped as a wellness shortcut. The supposed benefits include boosted dopamine, weight loss, stronger immunity, or even slower aging.
Rob Nail, former CEO of Singularity, shared some wisdom at last week's Executive Program. Here's a sneak peak
"I was afraid that knowledge and wisdom, things I have built for many years, was being lost. And I worried that technology, with infinitely more access to information, would surpass me. But my mindset has changed. I feel encouraged to continue to learn, because we have a responsibility to deepen our humanity, which I see now as our superpower, to actually shape what this technology becomes." -Reflection from last week's Executive Program
Are you trying to replace your workforce with AI, or improve your teams with it? One will look good on next quarter's report. The other will lead to lasting, exponential gain. Choose wisely.
Train your brain to think exponentially. Here at Singularity, we do a Daily Double. Introduce it to your team, add it to your Monday morning routine.
Some reflections from last week's Executive Program:
"Look at your decision architecture"
"Shift from problem solver to problem explorer"
"Knowing a problem deeply is the key to identifying an opportunity to apply AI"
"The direction of technology is set by human decisions"
We are not short on technology. What we need is leaders with the judgment to point the technology in the right direction.

Happy #NationalChocolateDay! To celebrate, Astreas brought their truffles, the first in lunar orbit, to the October Executive Program. #insideSingularity
Roughly 48 million square kilometers of land is used for agriculture. Think about this: if we could produce the same amount of food using only 10% of that land, what could the remaining space be used for?
Some of the best entrepreneurs in the world started as fractional founders. How much of your time are you spending evaluating your own expertise, data, or experience to find new opportunities?
