Episode notes
Effective Model Usage
- Use the most effective models to guide your thinking and decision-making.
- If a model consistently fails to deliver desired outcomes, replace it.
Model Ownership
- Sticking with failing models is like being controlled by them, even when they don't serve your goals.
- Stock-based compensation, despite its prevalence, hasn't improved shareholder returns.
