Popular question to ask. I’d start a startup to measure bias in speech/text.

Probably a startup based around productivity. Many types of productivity - energy, anti-corruption, health, healthier food, or a crutch for the downsides of the brain.

Cure cancer? Develop a Mr. Fusion, or an Eppstein drive? Return the CO2 levels in the atmosphere to 1950s levels? Convince the world to switch to no net-global pollution (CO2, mercury, etc.), by 2030? Establish long-term peace in the Middle East through a two-state solution with a viable Palestinian nation. There are so many things I would do if I knew I couldn't fail.
