Idea to Value

SEPTEMBER 4, 2024

Many startups and innovators struggle to sell their products once they launch. Often, this is because while they love the idea for the product they have come up with, it is not actually solving a problem which the user perceives in their own lives. But how is it possible that intelligent, hardworking teams can make such glaring errors? Especially when they themselves can list all of the real, tangible benefits that their innovative solution brings?

In the fast-paced and competitive world of business, innovation is not just a luxury; it’s a necessity. Companies must continually evolve to meet the ever-changing needs of their customers, outpace competitors, and adapt to new market dynamics.

A challenge confronting the Food and Drug Administration — and other regulators around the world — is how to regulate generative AI. The approach it uses for new drugs and devices isn’t appropriate. Instead, the FDA should be conceiving of LLMs as novel forms of intelligence. It should employ similar approaches to those it applies to clinicians.

Why do bonuses sometimes backfire? It’s because each incentive design choice both signals information about your own beliefs and intentions as an employer and shapes the signaling value of employee behavior within the organization. If you don’t think through these signals carefully, you may end up approving a bonus scheme with results that are the opposite of what you intend.

When things don’t go as planned, recognize the Universe doesn’t care about your plan. When the going gets tough, the Universe is telling you something. You just don’t know what it’s telling you. When in doubt, do the next right thing. That’s how the Universe rolls. If you don’t like how it’s going, change your situation or change your expectations.
