Reimagining Healthcare with AI

Adrian Ayun, the founder and CEO of Forward, discusses the transformative potential of AI in healthcare. He explains that AI focuses on the reasoning and computing aspects of human intelligence, and recent advancements have made computers better at reasoning. Ayun believes that AI technology, such as Chat GPT, is a breakthrough compared to previous AI tools and has the potential to revolutionize healthcare. He acknowledges that there will be challenges and downsides to AI, but the overall impact on healthcare will be positive, bridging gaps in access and improving outcomes. Ayun also criticizes the current healthcare system, emphasizing the need for a product-based approach rather than a service-based one. He envisions a healthcare future where doctors utilize technology as tools to enhance patient care and engagement, replacing the current model of fragmented and expensive care. Ayun aims to create an operating system for healthcare and build a healthcare system that can scale to serve billions of people.
