What is the vision behind medical swarms and having a thousand doctors per person?
If you imagine a VIP in the government and something happens to them, literally hundreds of doctors are gonna get put on call. None of us can afford that. But if we look at this technology, it'll be very reasonable to think that you have the brain power of a thousand physicians. What is this gonna look like when you have the whole chat GPT to yourself? It's only a matter of time where you could afford to have a thousand agents all working for you.
What if every person on earth could have access to a personal team of medical specialists? Not just one doctor, but hundreds working in concert available twenty-four-seven and at virtually no cost. In this episode, we explore how AI is revolutionizing healthcare through what experts call medical swarms. So armies of specialized agents that could make concierge medicine available to everyone. Joining us are a distinguished panel of experts, AI professor William Hahn, who is the founder of FAU's Machine Perception and Cognitive Robotics Lab and returning guest of this channel. Here he is, discussing Wolfram and Consciousness, link in the description. There's also Dr. Gil Blander, an MIT aging research veteran and founder of Insight Tracker.
There's also Dr. Dan Elton, an NIH scientist developing AI for medical imaging, and AI professor Elon Barenholtz, founder of Florida Atlantic University's Machine Perception Cognitive Robotics Lab. My name's Kurt Jaimungle, and I'm honored to have been invited to moderate today's Polymeth. Medical salon at FAU's Gruber AI Sandbox, keynoted by pioneer biologist Michael Levin. Here's his presentation from Polymath, link in the description. Curated by Addy Cha of Ecolopto. They held the first longevity hackathon at MIT with Augmentation Lab featuring toguests like Steven Wolfram, Yosha Bach, Minoas Kellis. And this was also curated by academic and medical philanthropist Ruben Gruber. Together they paint a picture of a healthcare future that's not about replacing doctors.
No, it's about democratizing access to medical expertise at an unprecedented scale and sophistication. Subscribe if you like the exploration of cutting-edge research in AI, theoretical physics, consciousness studies, biology, and mathematics.
Good evening, everybody. We're we're really excited that you guys are here for this kickoff event. We're here in the machine perception and cognitive robotics laboratory, something I started with Elon here about ten years ago. And then we expanded into this beautiful space we call the AI sandbox. So first and foremost, uh he's not gonna like it, but we have to thank Ruben Gruber back here.
Give it up for Ruben, he made this all possible.
Not just for building us this beautiful space that enables uh events like this, but in this particular event for serving as a catalyst for what we think is a very exciting space that's combining the improvements we've seen with artificial intelligence with some of the oldest goals in the world, namely medicine and longevity. And we believe that this is gonna be one of the killer or rather life-saving applications for artificial intelligence. Uh so I'm very excited here to to share. We're gonna have a nice dialogue with the panel, but we want your input. The whole point is to create a conversation factory. And to have a loop that's connecting the practitioners, the physicians, uh the people who need care, the people who give care, and all of the amazing young people here that are gonna go out and use these tools to make those things happen.
Give it up for Doctor Han.
Thank you.
You may have seen me running around practically like a chicken without a head for basically the whole event. My name is Addy Shaw. I run this thing called Ecolopto, which is Greek for incubate if I got Google Translate correctly, and I basically run a research institute. And this research institute is kind of a Somewhat of a sloppy excuse for me to be able to better understand why we're here on this planet. What is purpose? Why are we here? What are the unknowns, unknowns of biology, math, physics, right?
