Winter Olympic success depends on having the right team, on and off the ice. Canadian gold medal skier and current Chef de Mission of the Canadian Olympic team Jennifer Heil knows this firsthand. She credits her success to her drive, her training, and the high-level coordination between her coaches, doctors, nutritionists and psychologists. After retiring from competition, Heil set her sights on entrepreneurship and women’s health. Now she’s bringing Olympic-level, highly personalized healthcare to women everywhere through the power of AI. Heil joins Pioneers of AI to talk about her Olympic journey, how AI is transforming wellness, and why her focus is on women’s health.

Anthropologists theorize that the human brain is only wired to maintain around 150 relationships and remember 1,500 people. But AI can help expand our natural capacity through ‘relationship intelligence.’ Caroline Dell — co-founder and CEO of Goodword — is building a tool to do just that. By cataloging conversations and connections across platforms, these AI tools can help us make the most of our networks and understand their real scope. Dell joins Pioneers of AI to talk about how relationship intelligence works, tips for good networking, and why human connections matter more than ever in the age of AI.

Advances in robotics have lagged strides in software for many years. So far, only a few companies seem to have cracked the code to get robots working in the world, at scale. Raffaello D’Andrea is behind several success stories in that vein. His Kiva Systems was acquired by Amazon to move inventory around warehouses, and his newest firm, Verity, uses AI drones to improve warehouse efficiency and safety. An artist, technologist, and entrepreneur, D’Andrea has also built robots that play soccer and drones that perform alongside some of the biggest musicians in the world. He joins Pioneers of AI to talk about why it’s so hard to build good robots and how AI has opened up so many new possibilities.

Dr. Shiv Rao wears many hats. When he’s not pulling a clinical shift as a cardiologist or obsessing over the latest Rick Rubin album, he’s running his $5.3 billion company, Abridge.

It’s a novel idea: humanize healthcare by outsourcing busy work to AI. On this Pioneers of AI episode, we dig into the future of healthcare, how AI can be the antidote to doctor burnout, and why vanity matters when building a business.
