Five things we learned from industry leaders about AI in healthcare Rock Health

Wachter told his captive Bay Area audience, "the future of AI and digital transformation will not be created in Mountain View or Cupertino. They simply do not and cannot know enough about the way the healthcare system works. Nor will it be created at UCSF, because we don't have the business expertise or scale." Such transformation, he said, will only occur with partnerships. Beyond academic, enterprise, and startup collaboration, Fernando noted, "markets like China and India, maybe Asia and Africa, are going to come up with new ways to deliver high quality care that we will import into the US--and that might be the biggest disruption." Eron elaborated on this, saying foreign markets have fewer regulations and thus might have access to more, diverse data sets to train algorithms.
