EPISODE SUMMARY We have more health data than ever — from wearables and biomarkers to genetics and AI. But does more data actually help us make better decisions? I sit down with computer scientist, former IBM researcher and EVER Health founder Reiner Kraft, Ph.D., to explore the promise and limitations of AI-powered personalized health: what we can really learn from biomarkers, why an individualized recommendation can still be wrong, and where human expertise remains essential. We also get into health optimization, behavior change, supplementation and the danger of turning our health into another full-time job. Because perhaps the best technology isn't the one that gives us the most data — but the one that helps us figure out what actually deserves our attention. WE TALKED ABOUT … Where AI helps — and where humans still matter … When more health data doesn't mean better answers … How to optimize your health without obsessing over it EPISODE NOTES Reiner Kraft, Ph.D., is a computer scientist, former Silicon Valley technology executive, researcher and inventor with more than 120 registered US patents. After more than two decades in technology, including roles at IBM Research, Yahoo and Zalando, he turned his systems-thinking approach toward personalized health, prevention and human performance. Today, Reiner is the founder of EVER Health and Epigenetik-Praxis, where he applies a data-driven approach to helping people better understand and manage their health. His work explores how biomarkers, lifestyle data and AI can be combined with human expertise to create more personalized health decisions.
