The Medium identifies essential signals on how technology is shaping the business of culture, and how the marketplace is evolving in response.

[I]n drug discovery, it's always taken a lot of humans doing work to figure out protein synthesis, to figure out which drugs are going to be effective. But what I've seen—and I heard signals of this five years ago with CRISPR—but what I've seen in the last couple of years in terms of AI's ability to discover, have early detection and figure out new drug discovery, I think will blow away the entire healthcare industry.

For my tenth interview in the Voices In ChAInge interview series, I speak with Mark Burrell, a longtime entrepeneur and founder of a startup in stealth mode. Mark offered two answers to my questions, one related to his venture and one related to the media marketplace.

About Voices in ChAInge

Voices in ChAInge is a series of 12 short interviews (1.5 to 5 minutes long) that offer a wide variety of answers to this simple question: “What is a recent market signal or development in AI that forced you to rethink a key business assumption?”

These interviews were recorded at The ON_Discourse AI Transformation Summit with over 100 participants “representing every C in the suite.”

My selection standard was simple: A shared interest in a conversation.

The responses varied widely. Some explored abstract concepts about humanity and creativity. Other narrowly focused on how AI is changing customer relationships with brands and brand product development.

Each conversation offers a rare window into how decision-makers across industries are recalibrating their thinking in real-time as AI transforms their business fundamentals.
