1/ In the past few months, the founders of Instacart, Spotify, and Coinbase have all started new healthcare companies. This may seem odd to some – why are these seasoned tech founders jumping into tech-driven healthcare? A 🧵: a16z.com/2023/04/20/hey…

New @a16z podcast series in which we ask people at the forefront of health & tech to walk us through a day in their life – food, sleep, exercise & meds. First up, @hubermanlab and I talk about his entire supplement stack and how he got @pmarca to stop drinking.

Stanford neuroscientist Andrew Huberman built one of the most popular podcasts in the world by turning health research into protocols millions of people actually use.

His top three habits are surprisingly straightforward: get bright light shortly after waking, resistance train, and make the sleep you can get as high-quality as possible.

He joins a16z’s Daisy Wolf to walk through the protocols he actually follows, from his 35-year workout to the lockbox he keeps his social media phone in, and explains why packing in every protocol can backfire if it gets in the way of the rest of your life.

For founders, he explains why the hours your brain does its best work are worth guarding like a fight, how to find the most real work you can sustain, and why sleep is where neurotech will win first.

Clinical AI can be life or death, especially as busy doctors increasingly rely on it to inform their decisions.

We shouldn't let AI companies grade their own homework. @withprotegeai is solving this, and today launched Independent Evaluations: double-blind evals built by healthcare experts on de-identified, real-world data that model builders have never seen.

This is the kind of trust infrastructure healthcare AI needs before it reaches patients. Congrats @BobbySamuels, @engyziedan, and team!
