AI Workflows 實戰：讓 AI 幫你上班的一天｜洪璿岳 Makarove Hong

鬧鐘響完，他先看 AI 昨晚幫他完成了什麼。本集來賓洪璿岳，FlyiDEA 心電感應科技創辦人，兩週交付一個 MVP，不拿創投的錢。我們聊他每天真正在跑的 AI workflows：AI agent 怎麼幫他監看幾十個 LINE 群組裡的風險訊息、他怎麼用 AI 拆解 Product Hunt 的產品邏輯、以及為什麼他認為 AI 時代的瓶頸不在執行，而在你能不能把任務拆到夠小。也聊了不太好聽的部分：四十幾支產品過半賠錢，一個拖了兩年、從沒上線的案子，以及十年前一天睡三小時、在台北 101 上大夜班的那段日子。最後，上一位來賓問他怎麼讓自己不被 AI 取代。他的答案是他一直希望被取代。 Still Human 由 Oshen Studio 製作，每兩週更新。

AI in Medical Robotics with Evelyn Chang, Noah Medical

The doctor navigating your lung is comparing a live scope to a CT scan from five days ago. The body has shifted. The breathing hasn't stopped. Closing that gap is what AI in medical robotics is actually for. Evelyn Chang is a senior clinical engineer at Noah Medical, where she works on the Galaxy system, a robotic bronchoscopy platform designed to reach nodules at the outer edge of the lung. She came to it through Yellowstone fieldwork, NASA data science, operations work in Singapore, and an operations research degree. In this episode: Why peripheral lung biopsy is so hard without roboticsHow real-time 3D reconstruction replaces a week-old scanWhere image recognition already helps clinicians, and where it still needs confirmationWhat clinical engineering is, and why the field is growingWhy the human check-in before and after a procedure carries so much weightThemes: AI in medical robotics, human in the loop AI, medical device design, systems thinking, career paths for engineers.

AI, CRISPR, and the Limits of Data: A Med Student's View

Ewen Shengyao Huang is an M.D. candidate who has analyzed data from 97 million COVID patients and worked on CRISPR gene therapy at Columbia, all before finishing medical school. He explains how he actually uses AI to learn medicine (as a memory tool, not a shortcut), what "causal AI" means for future drug research, and why he believes AI will never fully replace doctors. We also get into a quiet, powerful story about a dying patient's wife and what she really needed to hear. Part of the Still Human series on AI, students, and staying human while building fast.

The Founder Who Belongs Nowhere — Neil Gawande on AI and Being Human

Neil Gawande started five companies before he turned 20. GPS trackers for seniors, VR fitness, web3 games, and now The Block, a personal AI assistant he describes as "ClaudeBot for regular people." But this episode is less about what he built and more about why. Neil is a third culture kid who grew up between India and Connecticut and never fully belonged to either. He sees belonging as a computational problem, sees code as color, and worries that technology is quietly extracting the essence out of human life. Perkin and Neil get into post-scarcity, the catch-22 of adopting technology, why every system eventually "develops cancer," and a story about losing his pants at an airport that explains his entire theory of perception. A conversation about founders, AI, identity, and what we lose when we move this fast. Still Human is a biweekly podcast by Oshen Studio.

William Norden — The Engineer Who Refuses to Trust Code He Hasn't Written

William Norden builds neural networks in C. No frameworks. No shortcuts. As a Research Engineer at Santa Clara University — with experience in neuromorphic computing, edge AI at Renesas, and cognitive neuroscience — he's part of a rare group: people who understand AI from the ground up, not just from the API down. In this episode, William and Perkin get into the tension at the heart of the AI moment: should you learn to orchestrate ten agents, or go deeper than any agent can? They talk about the "from scratch" philosophy, intelligence augmentation over replacement, the "high-dimensional tapestry" of global problems, and what classical piano and competitive tennis have to do with designing brain-inspired chips. The closing question, passed by the previous guest: "As AI becomes more present in our lives and work — where do you feel being still human matters most?"

"The Zentrepreneur Who Testified Against Tesla's Solar Roof"

Toby Corey co-founded USWeb ($3B valuation), ran sales at Tesla Energy (managing a $100M turnaround), and testified under oath that Solar Roof tiles were non-functional. Rather than hide the cost—4,000+ layoffs, personal burnout, ethical compromises—he created Zentrepreneurship: a framework for scaling with consciousness. Now he's building BrandCapsule to solve AI's identity problem. In this conversation, we explore why founders need to acknowledge the shadow side of growth, what consciousness means when executing ruthless turnarounds, and the human infrastructure that AI still can't replace. This episode is for anyone building at scale and asking: How do I stay human while being ruthlessly efficient?

The Student Who Built AI Traffic Control for Earth's Orbit | Lilian Krengel

Lilian Krengel is a 19-year-old Santa Clara freshman who founded OrbitGuard AI — a real-time satellite collision risk platform — while balancing engineering coursework, student government, a sorority, and coaching surf lessons.In this episode, Perkin and Lilian talk about the invisible congestion crisis building in low Earth orbit, what 13 years of competitive gymnastics teaches you about pressure and performance, and what happens when a Stanford team builds the same product you've been working on for nine months — in a single weekend hackathon.Lilian also answers the two questions passed forward from the previous guest: "Who are you without AI?" and "In 10 years, will you look back and say you did everything to make yourself happy?"Honest. Grounded. One of the more quietly searching conversations Still Human has had.---Still Human is produced by Oshen Studio. New episodes every two weeks.

Andrey Marey: The Fake Dopamine Trap, Rapid Execution, and Setting Boundaries with AI | Still Human

How do you build fast without losing your humanity? On this episode of Still Human, Perkin talks with 20-year-old serial founder and Santa Clara University student Andrey Marey. Andrey shares the gritty realities of entrepreneurship, including how recovering from two major knee surgeries taught him extreme resilience. We dive into the psychology of goal setting, why Andre believes small goals trap you in a cycle of "fake dopamine," and his framework for getting to a "no" as fast as possible in sales. Plus, Andre explains his strict personal rule: why he absolutely refuses to use AI to communicate in his personal relationships. Topics Discussed: Disconnecting from tech in Iceland to find original thoughts. The importance of communication and sales for technical founders. Why Andre quit successful projects like Vivora and Bionic Reader early on. The "bungee jumping" mindset for taking immediate action. Why human creators will thrive in an AI-generated world.

From Varsity Wrestling to Winning at Nvidia: The Art of Being "Cooked"

From Varsity Wrestling to Winning at Nvidia: Sean Wu on "Abusing Youth" & The Reality of AI How does a varsity wrestler end up winning an Nvidia hackathon without writing a single line of code for the website? In this episode of Still Human, we sit down with Sean Wu, a 20-year-old founder who has raised over $7M for his robotics startup, Synphony. Sean opens up about the "Zen Master and Sadist" mindset he developed on the wrestling mat—where total accountability means accepting that if you lose, there is no one else to blame. He shares his unfiltered advice for young founders: "Abuse your youth," because people want to help students who are hungry enough to ask. We also dive into: The "Cooked" Victory: How he led a team to win a massive hackathon despite admitting his technical skills were "cooked". The Cold Chase: The story of how he literally ran after an angel investor in a parking lot to get his first check. Sim-to-Real Gap: Why the robotics industry is hitting a wall that the general public doesn’t see yet. Memology: Building a company culture where the vision is so strong it becomes an unspoken language. Join us for a raw conversation on grit, the privilege of being young, and why sometimes you just have to "beg" to get your foot in the door.
