I'm excited to be presenting at the FDA/CMS Summit this afternoon, after FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb's keynote address.
I was looking for a list of recommended books for ombuds and Voila, I stumble upon this list. Thank you, @maryconger and @OmbudsBlog #ombuds #ombudsman #resources

When statisticians build a model from data, they say "the data says". When AI researchers build a model from data, they say "the model says". The net result is members of public and even some AI researchers don't understand that an AI is just the input data in a different form.
I can’t wait!

Great visual, @kareem_carr The issue also reminds me of Frankenstein, when the monster attacks the scientist that created it.

“One of the most important things I have learned as an ombudsman is also one of the simplest -- Sometimes, someone just needs to be heard, even if you cannot directly help them.” ~Danee Garone, Senior Staff Attorney, Arizona Ombudsman Citizens’ Aide #TeachingThursday
Fantastic presentation of data about risks. Reminds me of my early days of working with medical devices like pacemakers. "Device failure" was frequently assumed as the cause, but it usually turned out to be something more common, like lead dislodgement.
Dramatic difference between actual causes of death and the causes of death we hear about in the media
The comments section is a fascinating discussion about the rules of basketball.
