#206- The AI Guy - Ophir Tanz

Emerging AI technologies are set to transform dentistry—and this week’s guest is at the vanguard of the seachange.   Ophir Tanz says artificial intelligence won’t replace dentists but will support and free them to focus on patients and clinical time.   His latest project, Pearl, is already providing AI diagnostic support to a profession that carries out more radiography than any other medical discipline.   Ophir explores the potential use cases for AI in dentistry, shares thoughts on the regulatory landscape and gives the lowdown on the challenges of training diagnostic AI in an industry with a surprisingly inconsistent approach to identifying and treating pathologies.   Enjoy!     In This Episode 02:05 - AI, GumGum and Pearl 09.50 - Use cases: data and pathologies 13.51 - Training AI 17.13 - Neural networks 21.10 - Patient communication and case acceptance 22.31 - Regulatory hurdles 24.14 - Early detection and diagnosis 26.50 - Future applications 29.46 - Pricing and distribution models 32.54 - Ophir’s story 34.48 - Drive and five-year horizon 38.04 - Superpowers 42.09 - Blackbox thinking 50.13 - Competition 52.39 - Highs and lows 56.58 - Business inspirations 57.57 - Last days and legacy 01.03.02 - Fantasy dinner party About Ophir Tanz Ophir Tanz is the founder of Pearl—a provider of AI-powered diagnosis and practice performance software for dentists.   He previously founded successful interactive and AI brands in media, branding and mobile spaces.
