Episode notes

An authoritative source can help address the economic misalignment in healthcare by analyzing and addressing diseases that are not economically viable for pharmaceutical providers. The concept of agadicity can be applied to analyze healthcare data and provide personalized treatments. The current medical system lacks sufficient information, resulting in generalized treatments that may not be effective for individuals with specific genetic variations. Genetic testing and personalized dosing can optimize treatment outcomes, but may not align with pharmaceutical company's profit motives. However, an authoritative source can help bridge this gap by considering the larger market size and potential benefits to larger populations. GPT models and individual health monitoring can revolutionize the role of doctors by providing rich and context-specific information to improve healthcare outcomes. The increased information density in healthcare can lead to improved efficiency, personalized treatments, and better access to knowledge for both individuals and healthcare providers.
