Managing AI's Moment in 2026

Almost one year ago, I wrote about how I was jumping into AI as a skeptic. It was funny enough timing that I then joined an AI startup, ReflexAI, that May and was then thrust into the forefront of what appeared to be a fundamental change to the technology industry, even though its value was unproven.

Following the example of Will Larson (as I often do), I figured I'd give a shot of my 2025 in review. A lot has changed, even if I haven't written about it here, and I should probably give this process a try moving forward.

After a little more than 3 1/2 years, it was time for me to move on from Seed Health. What started out as a pretty crazy idea to leave a well established tech company in Dropbox to establish an Engineering department at a microbial life-sciences startup turned into a fantastic learning and growth opportunity.
