AI abortion training has arrived: New tech tools navigate blurry line between healthcare and politics

Artificial intelligence (AI) tools are now available for future medical professionals at one Texas university to navigate the complexities of pregnancy and abortion--a development that further blurs the line between technology, politics and healthcare. A group of medical students at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston recently created a simulation of a pregnant patient, powered by AI, that the next generation of health experts can use to interpret various maternal health situations, including abortion. The new tech allows users to engage in all-options pregnancy counseling in Texas while also avoiding the potential consequences of the state's abortion restrictions. Anu Sharma, the CEO and founder of a tech-enabled maternity care company called Millie, told Fox News Digital that while this kind of tech is not without controversy or political discourse, it could provide much needed innovation and help to a healthcare system with significant gaps. Texas medical students have developed new AI tools to assist women with different pregnancy options, including abortion.
