Craig Hauben is the CEO of Clutch and has spent thirty years in health care, the last fifteen as an executive in private equity-backed companies. He writes about what AI is doing to work, in health care and beyond, from the operator's side of the table. He approves the kinds of systems clinicians are asked to trust, and he writes about what that responsibility should mean.
His white paper series, comprising The Meter Is Running, The Token Trap, and The Second Token Trap, covers the economics of AI tokens and why most companies cannot price what they are buying.
