In case you missed it: Farmers Can Opt Out Of The ACA... But how are they to pay for their broken legs, diabetes and pregnancies? No problem as long as they have cash. The Farm Bureau will be allowed to sell skimpy health care coverage while offering false hope of good quality health insurance to its members . Farm Bureau officials estimated that about 42,000 people would eventually take its coverage and promised lower rates than plans complying with federal mandates. They believed the takers would be individuals without coverage or struggling to pay for individual coverage. I hope that ‘life on the farm’ is as healthy as it sounds since the new insurance coverage might not pan out the way it’s been sold to the farming community. Selected Excerpt: “...The Farm Bureau would be able to set higher rates or reject coverage for people who have pre-existing medical conditions. They also suggested that coverage could be limited for large expenses, such as a pregnancy or cancer treatment.” …see more

New research out of MIT/Univ of Regina on #fakenews : "People often just don’t think critically enough about the information they encounter... Our research suggests that the solution to politically charged misinformation should involve devoting resources to the spread of accurate information and to training or encouraging people to think more critically. You aren’t doomed to be unreasonable, even in highly politicized times. Just remember that this is also true of people you disagree with." https://lnkd.in/eKEQvjZ …see more

Let's play a game called "Is this a privacy concern, creepy marketing or hyper-targeted data win?" Our first contestant: Your smart thermometer, which could be telling Clorox whether or not to push ads for disinfecting wipes to your neighborhood based on your temperature. (See article.) The data used in this targeting led to a 22% increase in consumer interactions with Clorox’s disinfectant ads, and a 900% increase in red flags for me. I began my career marketing data to B2B co's. Individuals could opt-out of the database but they did not opt-in. It was just a fact of the business, technically legal and under CAN-SPAM compliance. The risk is on the customer who uses the data. In that regard, part of me loves to see targeting data used in a relevant way like this. But the consumer/skeptic in me knows that the mother using this Elmo-shaped thermometer had no idea her baby's temp was being broadcast (anonymously, but still) back to Kinsa, then sold to Clorox so they could sell 22% more wipes to her neighbors.

"If you followed your passion and it resulted in a great job, consider yourself lucky. Sometimes they both come together. But it’s not a path available to everyone. So Labor Day, let’s honor work and those who do it." Mollie Lombardi

Are you (or your biz) jumping on the AI bandwagon? Here's a MAJOR statistic you may be taking for granted: 82% of U.S. (and 74% of non-U.S.) consumers indicated that they want to interact with a real person more than they do today. If more companies are getting away from human interaction, and consumers want more of it, who do you think is going to have the advantage? That’s right, the businesses who provide a human touch to the customer experience. #sponsored PwC #FutureofCX …see more
