Hospitals don't have an AI problem. They have a governance problem.
My published research on AI adoption failures found the root cause is almost never technical. It's organizational: unclear ownership, missing change management, no post-deployment monitoring.

Nick (@nickbakeddesign) just shared with @Daniel G Bright and I how he uses AI to think like a dev, design better products, and close higher‑quality clients, while staying tiny on purpose.
New UnContrad episode is live now for indie designers, studio owners, and creators serious about playing the long game.

A founder recently asked me to build an AI chatbot.
After understanding the business, I recommended something completely different.
The real bottleneck wasn't answering user questions.
It was a manual review process.
Every new shop submitted to the platform had to be verified, checked for duplicates, and rewarded by an admin.
Instead of another chatbot, I designed an AI-first workflow:
• MCP servers exposing business tools securely
• AI agents to verify submissions and detect duplicates
• Automated reward assignment
• Human review only for uncertain cases
The objective wasn't to replace people.
It was to eliminate repetitive work and let humans focus on decisions that actually require judgment.
This is why I enjoy building AI products.
The best AI solution isn't always the most sophisticated model, it's the one that solves the right business problem.
That's the difference between adding AI to a product and engineering a business around AI.
Let's build your AI product together.

I recently had the chance to pitch an AI project, and after a grueling month of continuously following up with the client, it still failed.
This failure taught me a lot of lessons, especially the importance of adapting the business problem to fit the client's needs from the very first pitch, in order to help them raise funding.
No matter how beautiful your design is, if it goes beyond what the client actually needs but doesn't help them secure the money, it's a failed design.
Next time, I'll ask the hard questions upfront: What are you actually trying to raise money for? What does success look like to your investors?
before touching the design at all.
Many lessons learned, and many more chances still ahead..
I'm sorry to hear that. Despite of this high quality of the work, but your lesson is the most precious. Thank you for sharing this. I hope you get better opportunity ahead soon!
