What will the AI executive order say?
Plus, new training methods, questionable behavior, and talking to ancestors.
We’re back with another edition of Machine Learnings, brought to you by the folks at Heyday.
Heyday is an AI thought partner that turns your conversations into notes, reading into quotes, and ideas into posts.
The day we’ve been looking forward to has come.
After launching the first version of our advanced AI tooling aimed at the executive coaches of the world, we’ve rolled our upgrades out to everyone. It means we’re celebrating at HeydayHQ.
There’s a little more this week, too. Now you can ask anything about your relationship with someone, and Heyday will share context from your reading, notes, and calls. See for yourself.
