Who or what do we blindly trust with our #health? 🤔

White Coats or Black Boxes?

Some thoughts on AI, medicine, human judgment, and how #AI could help us think more instead of less.

Reflections from a conversation with #healthcare leaders on trust, transparency, and who really benefits from AI in #medicine

I grew up in a world where you didn't question your doctor. You didn't ask about lab results. You didn't research your medications. "Doctor's orders" was gospel.

My grandmother never saw her own test results. She wouldn't have known what to do with them anyway.

We like to think we've evolved past that. But have we? Or have we just traded blind trust in white coats for blind trust in #algorithms?

That's the question that kept surfacing in my head after this Expert Panel Discussion I hosted with Sean Martin, CISSP and an extraordinary group of people:

Dr. Robert Pearl, M.D. (former CEO, The Permanente Medical Group, Inc.)

Robert Havasy (HIMSS)

John Sapp Jr (Texas Mutual Insurance Company)

Jim St. Clair (Altarum)

Robert Booker (HITRUST)

We gathered to discuss AI in healthcare. What emerged was something deeper: a reckoning with how we've always delegated medical decisions—and whether AI might actually force us to become smarter, more analytical, more inquisitive about our own health.

Here's my theory: AI doesn't have to make us dumber. It could make us think more, not less. But only if we choose to engage. Only if we demand transparency. Only if we resist trading one form of blind trust for another.

400,000 people die annually from misdiagnoses in America. That's not AI failure—that's human failure we've learned to accept.

The question isn't whether AI will transform healthcare. It already is.

The question is: Will we finally start asking questions?

About our doctors AND our algorithms?

Then tell me—what kind of trust are we building? Who benefits? Who bears the risk?

Let's keep exploring what it means to be human in this Hybrid Analog Digital Society.

We❤️ Bob!

You know Bob—stuck in the #SOC, drowning in data he can't actually use, trying to do his job with tools that seem designed to slow him down rather than help him solve problems.
I've always felt for Bob.
His passion is real, but the system?
Not so much.

Now I have hope for Bob, thanks to Crogl, Inc.

monzy merza, CEO at Crogl, Inc., joins Sean Martin, CISSP and me for a conversation that's part philosophy, part rebellion, and part actual product demo—showing how a SOC can work when data never has to move and analysts finally get their time back.

We dig into what happens when you stop forcing everything into the same shape and start letting analysts actually investigate.

AI's role in collaboration. Building trust across the SOC. And Monzy drops this gem: "You don't eat food from a chef who's never eaten food. Why build a company without truly understanding the problem?" 🍳 👨‍🍳 🔪

This is exactly why Studio C60 / ITSPmagazine exists—to tell stories that matter, challenge assumptions, and maybe give Bob a fighting chance.

Here's to many more conversations like this one with Crogl, Inc.'s Team!

Stop normalizing everything. Start solving something.

🎼 #Music 🎶 if it didn't exist our humanity would be very different from what it is now. The same can be said about #art in general and the intrinsic need humans have to create it and enjoy it.

When it comes to music I love to hear it, play it and talk about it so I am grateful I got to spend time with this amazing group of people to discuss the imperfect magic of this incredible art.

Thanks to Sean Martin, CISSP for moderating this powerful Music Evolves #Podcast Panel with Chandler Lawn (The The University of Texas School of Law), Drew Thurlow (Berklee College of Music), Michael Sheldrick (Global Citizen), and Puya Partow-Navid (Seyfarth Shaw LLP).

Hello everyone!

In this episode, you'll learn about the inaugural Global Space Awards celebrating the Golden Era of Space on December 5, 2025, at London's Natural History Museum, hosted by physicist Brian Greene.

The event honors Captain James Lovell's legacy and recognizes innovators transforming #space from government domain to commercial frontier in our Hybrid Analog Digital Society.

I hope you love space as much as I do, and cross your fingers that I'll be able to attend the event in person! I mean, dinosaurs and rockets in one of the most iconic museums in the world???

Please... :)

For now, enjoy the article, video, and podcast—and hopefully there will be more straight from the event!

Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe if you haven't already.

Many more great conversations coming soon from the intersection of #technology, #cybersecurity, and #society!
Cheers,
Marco

New Episode with guest Charlotte Henry and her new #book:

STREAMING WARS: How Getting Everything We Want Changed Entertainment Forever

We used to learn who someone was by looking at their record collection.

Walk into their home, scan the #vinyl on the shelves, and you'd know instantly— #Metallica fan, #jazz enthusiast, #Beatles completist.

Media was how we expressed ourselves without saying a word.

That's gone now.

You can't browse someone's #Netflix queue the way you could their DVD collection. Can't judge their #Kindle library like you could scan their bookshelf. Can't see their #Spotify playlist on a first date.

Journalist Charlotte Henry explores this shift—and so much more—in her new book "Streaming Wars: How Getting Everything We Want Changed Entertainment Forever."

In my latest Redefining #Society & #Technology Podcast episode, Charlotte and I discuss:

📺 Why the 2023 #Hollywood strikes mark streaming's most symbolic moment 🔄 The paradox: we cut the cord, but we're recreating cable #TV bundles

📊 How Netflix's most-watched content isn't what you think (hint: it's background shows)

🎭 The real economic impact on writers, actors, and below-the-line workers

🤖 Why AI might actually INCREASE the value of human-made work

🎵 From Metallica vs. Napster to today's streaming economy

We're living through a massive media transformation. Charlotte captures this exact moment—before everything changes again.
