Did AI Tools Help Doctors During the Pandemic? - The New Stack

This week a Montreal-based artificial intelligence startup named Stratuscent issued a press release promising "the world's first AI-powered air quality monitor" for both Covid-19 and influenza. The company named it NOZE, since its website says it uses a "digital sense of smell" to scan the very air that you're breathing, all powered by "a single sensor built on years of NASA innovation." The website says the built-in AI component analyzes temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide, and particulate matter (as well as Covid and influenza markers). "As a connected device, it is future-proof, being able to detect new smells… as updates are pushed to it from the cloud." Units will start shipping in October (from getNOZE.com.)
