Strategic empathy Imagine this. I was at a US airport recently and needed throat lozenges. I had just four dollar bills, and was pleased that they were priced at $3.99. At the counter, I was told, “That’s $4.29 sir”. Of course. I’d forgotten about sales tax. They add it separately here. I was ready to whip out my card, when the sales assistant surprised me.
This is exciting and somewhat scary... it feels like we are getting further away from each other as humans... interesting that your first story was about the real empathy in real human interactions, and the second story removes all human interactions. My brain really doesn't like VR and it leaves me feeling nauseous and a bit like I'm experiencing vertigo, so I defintely won't be queing for the vision pro. The AI generated videos are truly breathtaking... I wonder if it could generate my handstand classes!
While living in Ireland in the early 2000's, there was always a coin container at the check out of the supermarket. If you need a few to pay you grabbed them and left your change in it for someone who needed to grab them. I'm guessing Paul Scroope could give you the history of it. Thanks every week for your Friday email. It makes my day regularly, Ross

Loved the strategic empathy story Andrew, so relevant to the health sector!
