'We have the most to benefit, but also the most to lose': how AI could transform human health

Artificial intelligence has the potential to massively improve human health: from developing new drugs to providing more accurate diagnoses and helping people who live with severe disabilities.

But AI also has the potential, if used wrongly or governed badly, to make life worse for people dealing with health problems.

In this episode, we hear from people on the front lines of the technology.

This episode was first published on 29 May, 2024. Radio Davos will resume new weekly podcasts from September 2024.

Speakers:

Victor Pineda, president and founder of the Victor Pineda Foundation/World ENABLED

Alexandra Reeve Givens , CEO, Center for Democracy and Technology

Chris Mansi, CEO, Viz.ai

Daphne Koller, founder and CEO of Insitro
