Exciting podcast out today with @HGlorikian about his new book "The Future You". Did I mention that @wroush is an amazing pod producer? New approach for me: I tried blogging by creating memes of the highlights. (Does this work???) https://t.co/YJTKxaQGXw (from X)

The Future You: How Artificial Intelligence (AI) Can Help You Get Healthier, Stress Less, and Live Longer explores how AI is disrupting healthcare and what you need to know to navigate the new medical paradigm and improve your health in monumental ways—starting today. You'll learn how doctors are treating once-incurable diseases by rewriting our DNA, and how AI is helping them diagnose different cancers more precisely. You'll see how people like you have used smartphone and smartwatch technology to reach your health and fitness goals, and sometimes to survive a health emergency. You'll understand how scientists around the world used AI to develop COVID vaccines at record speed and repurpose existing drugs to fight the virus—and how AI will help us identify future outbreaks more rapidly. There's quite literally nothing about health and wellness that won't be utterly transformed by the power of AI. The Future You will show you what's coming—and what is already here. "AI is all around us. Self-driving cars. Smart personal assistants—think Siri, Cortana, or Google Now—or Alexa, Amazon's cloud-based voice service that is available on literally hundreds of millions of devices. Voice-to-text. Manufacturing robots. Facial recognition software. Security surveillance. Automated financial investing and social media monitoring. Smart homes that control themselves when their owners are out of town. The list is endless. "All of the above make life easier for us. But in this new book by Moneyball Medicine author/podcaster Harry Glorikian, the spotlight is on how AI can (and will, and in many cases already does) make us healthier." —from the Foreword to The Future You by Dr. Bob Arnot
