    AI Meets Cardiology: Dr. Philip Nölling on Preventing Heart Attacks and Strokes // REPOST

    In this episode of "The Beginner's Guide to AI," we dive deep into the intersection of artificial intelligence and cardiology with Dr. Philip Nölling from dpv analytics GmbH. As societies age, heart disease becomes a leading cause of mortality, with one-third of the population succumbing to heart-related issues. But what if AI could change that? Dr. Nölling introduces us to a groundbreaking ECG device designed for mass screenings, aiming to detect heart problems before they become life-threatening. 📧💌📧 Tune in to get my thoughts and all episodes, don't forget to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠subscribe to our Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠beginnersguide.nl⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📧💌📧 Discover how AI not only analyzes complex data but also supports cardiologists in their mission to prevent strokes and heart attacks.

  2. Are Chatbots Secretly Hustling You? The FTC Thinks So!

    PRED 5 DNEVI

    Are Chatbots Secretly Hustling You? The FTC Thinks So!

    When does AI stop helping and start hustling you? In this episode of A Beginner’s Guide to AI, Professor Gephardt unpacks the FTC’s new “Luring Test”—a standard that exposes how algorithms can manipulate trust, exploit psychological shortcuts, and push people into harmful choices. From robot lawyers that weren’t really lawyers to AI tools generating fake reviews and e-commerce empires built on empty promises, we explore how regulators are cracking down on deceptive AI practices and dark patterns in AI design. 📧💌📧 Tune in to get my thoughts and all episodes, don't forget to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠subscribe to our Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠beginnersguide.nl⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📧💌📧 As the FTC’s Operation AI Comply shows, slapping “AI-powered” on a product doesn’t give anyone a free pass to hype or mislead. The real challenge is drawing the line between AI personalisation and AI manipulation. Key thought to keep in mind: “If an AI assistant would give a different recommendation were it truly acting in the user’s best interest—and the only reason it doesn’t is your revenue model—you’re not personalising; you’re luring.” Whether you’re a marketer, entrepreneur, or curious listener, this episode will sharpen your eye for spotting when AI is serving you—and when it’s working you over. --- Tune in to get my thoughts, don't forget to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠subscribe to our Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!

    From Physics Prof to Sci-Fi Prophet: Chris Kulp on AI, Ethics, and Androids // REPOST

    What happens when a physics professor dives headfirst into the world of AI—and also writes space operas on the side? In this episode, we talk with Chris Kulp, professor at Lycoming College and award-winning science fiction author, about the fascinating collision of science, storytelling, and machine learning. 📧💌📧 Tune in to get my thoughts and all episodes, don't forget to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠subscribe to our Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠beginnersguide.nl⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📧💌📧 From teaching physics with Gemini to drafting novels with a little help from generative AI, Chris shares how these tools reshape both the classroom and the creative process. We explore everything from AI solving real physics problems (scarily well), to why students still need to understand the fundamentals. Chris also breaks down how he uses AI to “fail faster” when modeling complex systems, and how fiction can help us ask deeper ethical questions about our AI future. Bonus: we get a sneak peek into his new book Lost Origins—featuring androids, moral dilemmas, and a galaxy where Earth is just a myth.
