How I Built a Personal Board of Directors With GenAI - MIT Sloan Management Review (No paywall)
Using GenAI tools, leaders can construct a virtual, personal board of directors made of personas modeled after current and historic thinkers and strategists. Author Vipin Gupta has made an MVP Board based on leaders including Steve Jobs, Indra Nooyi, and Nelson Mandela. Each virtual adviser offers distinct perspectives on strategy, innovation, ethics, and operations questions. Combined with your human relationships, your own virtual board would form a hybrid team of advisers.
Leadership experts have long championed the concept of a personal board of directors as a way for executives to surround themselves with a circle of trusted mentors, sponsors, and advisers. I've advocated for and practiced this model myself during the past several years. But here's the twist: What if your board members didn't have to be real people? With the rise of generative AI (GenAI), every leader can build a personal board of directors composed of virtual personas modeled after some of the greatest thinkers, strategists, creators, and operators in history. This isn't science fiction. It's a modern, scalable way to access world-class insight and clarity on demand. And I've built one.

WorkWorkWorkWork WorkReal milk proteins, no cows: Engineered bacteria pave the way for vegan cheese and yogurt Bacteria are set to transform the future of dairy-free milk products. Scientists have successfully engineered E. coli to produce key milk proteins essential for cheese and yogurt production, without using any animal-derived ingredients. This paves the way for plant-based dairy alternatives that mimic traditional dairy at a molecular level but are sustainable and cruelty-free. WorkWorkWork
WorkWork3 Cognitive Habits of People Who Get Things Done - Inc (No paywall) Marcus leads a team of eight direct reports, and Jennifer is his star employee. While the other seven team members struggle to complete tasks on time or in the way Marcus asks for them, Jennifer seems to ace any task shes given.

WorkWork4 Things Apple Maps Does Better Than Google Maps It's totally understandable if you havent opened Apple Maps since its disastrous launch in 2012, which among other things saw people driving into riverbanks. It was not a launch that inspired confidence. That was over a decade ago, though, which is an eternity in the world of software. After years of refinement, Apple Maps is pretty good now.

WorkHow to start your own business in 2025, according to people who already did Many workers, perhaps disillusioned by cubicle walls and fluorescent lighting, may have indulged in a fantasy at some point in their careers. Theyd finally take that side gig and make it their sole source of income. Theyd open that boutique in the empty storefront they pass every day. Theyd turn that idea for an app into reality. WorkWorkWorkWhy the latest meme stock craze won't take down the overall market - WSJ (No paywall) There are two reasons for concern. The first is that excessive gambling in the market leads to unsustainably high prices that have to crash. GameStop and AMC Entertainment Holdings, the stars of the meme-stock boom in 2021, are down 74% and 99% respectively from their peaks. If speculation has lifted the market as a whole, it will eventually sink it, too.
WorkWeathering change: Fewer cold fatalities, more heat emergencies in California As temperatures rise, California is experiencing fewer deaths from cold temperatures, which outweigh increased deaths from extreme heat. However, hotter temperatures sharply increase emergency department visits-a previously overlooked consequence of climate change that could place a greater burden on the health care system.

WorkTreating Gazas Collective Trauma - The New Yorker (No paywall) The line outside Dr. Bahzad al-Akhrass clinic starts to assemble before sunrise, a ripple of bodies in the half-light standing barefoot or in frayed sandals, waiting for a turn at what now passes for care. His clinic is wherever it needs to be: in a corner at a shelter compound, on the move during a walk around the yard, or behind the makeshift screen of a bedsheet pulled between two poles, if the wind allows. Often, Akhras sees patients in a tented space, tucked among hundreds of other such tents in the dense sprawl of Al-Mawasi, in the southern end of the Gaza Strip. WorkWorkWork
WorkWorkWorkWorkWhy Amazon's massive retail business is no longer enough - WSJ (No paywall) The companys generally strong second-quarter report late Thursday was marred by what was considered a disappointing showing by its Amazon Web Services cloud-computing business. AWS revenue grew 17% from a year earlier to about $30.9 billion, which was largely flat with the growth rate shown the previous quarter and merely in line with Wall Streets projections. That came after rivals Microsoft and Alphabets Google reported accelerating growth in their own cloud units for the same period. WorkWorkWorkWork WorkWorkWorkWork
