Rethinking interoperability for better outcomes. When we consider end-user experience in the context of a business workflow, interoperability becomes more than an IEEE definition ("the ability of two or more systems or components to exchange information and to use the information that has been exchanged"). To improve outcomes and address the end-user experience, a broader definition is needed that includes business, data and system elements in the context of a business workflow.

I quote from Y Combinator website: "The world would need to scale up the number of #MRI scans it does by at least 100x. Doing that will require innovations in MRI hardware, #AI algorithms to interpret scans and reduce false positives, and business models and consumer marketing to make it a viable business. We’re interested in funding companies looking to tackle this multifaceted problem." https://lnkd.in/edYvKtuz Cancer is a #lethal disease. Although many cancers can be controlled today, not many can be cured. Full-body scans are something we need for sure. You could argue that the number of invasive tests might increase, which is true, but over time we will learn which lesions require further investigation and biopsy and which don't. The current stage of cancer screening is concerned with population health and saving costs rather than individual health. We need cheaper technology to help us screen the mass population and help detect cancer early, where the treatment is much cheaper for the individual, insurance, and society. Please note, these are my thoughts and do not reflect the organizations I work with. #ycombinator #cancerscreening #cancerprevention #CancerResearch #EarlyDetection #MRIScans #HealthcareInnovation #PopulationHealth #MedicalTechnology #CancerScreening #AIInHealthcare #AffordableHealthcare

📣 AI in Healthcare Survey Results 📣 " . . . The survey [from Wolters Kluwer] of 100 U.S. #physicians found that 40% are prepared to use #generativeAI during #patient interactions at the #pointofcare. Additionally, 68% of physicians said they have had a change of opinion over the last year and are now inclined to believe that generative AI would be beneficial for #healthcare." We need adopt AI in ways that minimize risk and keep the clinician in the loop as the final arbiter of care. As adoption becomes more prevalent (as evidenced by the 68% surveyed changing their opinions), AI will be integral to effective #carepathways, improved #patientoutcomes, and greater #clinician #jobsatisfaction.

📊 AI Investment Trends: A Reality Check 📉 After years of easy money, the AI industry is facing a reckoning. Global investment in AI fell for the second year in a row in 2023, according to a new report from Stanford University’s Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI see: https://lnkd.in/gUkZjHRi ). ✅ AI-related mergers and acquisitions fell 31.2% to $80 billion in 2023. ✅ Private investment dipped from 103 billion to $95 billion. ✅ Total investment in AI dropped 20% to $189 billion in 2023. However, more AI companies are receiving investments than ever before, with 1,812 AI startups announcing funding in 2023, up 40.6% versus 2022. Reasons for the slowdown: 🔹 AI investing is "spreading out" as the largest players stake their ground. 🔹 Slower-than-expected growth and challenges in scaling AI technologies. 🔹 Less appetite to fund new players in the AI space. 🔹 Investors becoming more cautious due to over-reliance on projected growth. Generative AI remains a bright spot, with funding reaching $25 billion in 2023. However, skepticism persists among high-profile VCs and C-suite executives about the technology's ability to deliver on its promises. The AI industry may be undergoing a "necessary" correction to "bubble-like investment fervor," with a more sustainable and normalized pace expected in 2024. Stay tuned for further developments! #AIInvestment #ArtificialIntelligence #AILLM #TechTrends #GenerativeAI #Startups #grok #MistralAI
