Matt’s Presentation:

Cryptocurrency is going to be the ultimate currency in the future. People are reluctant to invest in it but that is why we need to understand the cues that big companies are giving us. For example, Facebook is doing its own cryptocurrency is not something they do because they like, it is because they know that there is where the money is going to be. Big companies stay big because they have a vision. Not only facebook but Telegram, Alibaba, Walt Disney, Ford motor, Amazon, etc. They all are making their own cryptocurrencies. So, it is interesting to see where the world is going.

Question: Have you invested in cryptocurrency?

Afraz’s Presentation:

Very interesting how posture can affect the mood, and how it is proved that depression is positive correlated to it. However, I disagree with a phone being the only problem because most of the things that we do require bending our head. For example, cooking, dancing, reading a book.

Very good clarification from Afraz when he said that is the constant use of our phone, where we need to bend our head, the problem.

Ahmed’s Presentation:

I find interesting how artificial intelligence is taking little by little of the medical industry. And it is amazing how good use people are putting to it as to help the needy. It shocking the amount of doctor per million of citizen they have which is 11. However, AI technology is not perfect. If the patient cataracts they will probably need a doctor.

My question is: If they manage to implement AI, out all the people that get screened, how are they going to be treated? I mean, they can only screen people but if many test positive, how are they going to treat them?
