From his early days programming electronic music to navigating LLM deployment at scale, Shiv offers a rare look into the soul of a founder building not just infrastructure — but a movement. He unpacks how generative AI can be used to restore presence in the clinic, what it takes to earn clinician trust, and why he believes taste, empathy, and curiosity are the real moats in health care AI.
