The capacity of generative AI to revolutionise healthcare is undeniable and already rolling out across the industry, whether it's analysing real-world data, accelerating drug discovery, powering diagnostic tools and so much more. Large language models such as ChatGPT are being used as an alternative to Dr Google, so it's unsurprising to see a couple of healthcare AI technologies coming to market for consumers. My Anna Health, a 'humanised' generative AI tool focused solely on women’s health, has launched with the aim of helping the 2 billion women who can't easily access healthcare. Vetted by medical professionals, Anna speaks multiple languages so is able to support women worldwide with guidance on their symptoms and direct them for appropriate follow-up. Just last week, OpenAI and Arianna Huffington announced they are jointly funding the development of an AI health coach via the start-up Thrive AI Health. Trained on scientific research and user data, this AI-enabled personalised health coach aspires to helping users make behavioural changes in areas like sleep, fitness, stress management and nutrition. Interested to know, how comfortable are you in handing your health data over to these companies?
