HEALTHCARE HOPE

Of all sectors of the US economy, AI seems poised to have more immediate impact on healthcare than probably any other. The combination of it being huge (17.6% of GDP), in possession of a uniquely high volume of unstructured data (medical images, clinical notes), urgent cost pressures, painfully low productivity growth, fraud, medical errors, and substantial sums spent on billing/documentation/compliance make it ideal for an AI-driven cost-savings and service-enhancing transformation.
