Yes — the work is done. One thing needs you. The struggle continues.

Finally: an independent, head-to-head test of clinical AI models. This week, Stanford's Arise Lab published one of the most comprehensive independent evaluations of clinical AI to date. The benchmark compared 24 frontier and clinical AI models, producing 12,747 expert rankings on their answers to real-world clinical questions. We were excited to see Doximity Ask outperform OpenEvidence, GPT-5.6, Claude Fable 5, Gemini 3.1 Pro, and other leading frontier AI models. The bigger story, though, is that clinical AI is finally getting the kind of rigorous, independent benchmarking it needs.

Pretty smart of z.ai to have copy page and toggle for markdown vice. I do so much CMD+A and copy/paste on web pages.

> Executive Briefing: Cheap Intelligence Won’t Matter If Your Context Is Trapped many people here likely follow @natebjones and today's executive briefing prompted me (I know) to rework my Obsidian brain/wiki skills to work across all my harnesses: claude, Codex, and agy.

Lower Saxony is a major VW shareholder pushing the company to build Chinese-designed cars in German factories rather than close them. Blume called it "a very intelligent solution." Those are the same factories the 100,000-job restructuring targeted for closure.

V8 take rate in half-ton trucks: 65% in 2020, 38% in 2024. Ford quietly dropped the Coyote from its two most expensive F-150 trims, no announcement, just a configurator change. Ram brought the HEMI back after customers revolted. GMC added new V8s to the redesigned Sierra.

How could we possibly have predicted this?

For clinical AI, the model is only one layer. You also need evidence retrieval, clinical workflow fit, privacy guarantees, continuous evaluation, and physician review through PeerCheck™. That’s the system behind Doximity Ask — now part of a Clinical AI Suite purchased by 150 health systems, including 8 of the top 20 hospitals. Here’s how Doximity Ask works under the hood: technology.doximity.com/arti…

Moving an agent from demo to production isn't a model problem, it's a systems problem. Context, retrieval, tool design, permissions, observability. The model is just one component in the chain. technology.doximity.com/arti…
