The last couple of weeks have been a mixed bag. On one night, I attended an “AI for Design” talk at a big finance company where the famous speaker reinforced the worst stereotypes about AI creating racial stereotypes and derivative design. Then, on the very next night, I attended an Open Health Tech London event where an inspiring panel of health tech experts shared how their oftentimes indirect career paths led them to working at great health tech companies — the event gave me so much hope and left me inspired!
