For 28 years I lived my life in stages. School, degree, PhD: each one was preparation for the next.

Then I started putting all that preparation to work, on something of my own.

Here I'll share what it's teaching me, about AI in medicine and about building.

@HealthcareAIGuy Curious how that $3.7B splits between clinical AI (imaging, decision support) and admin.
My guess is admin takes most of it, because it's easier to validate and faster to sell

[Matteo Lai @Matteo_Lai3]

@ArthurMacwaters World is probably not ready for that

[Matteo Lai @Matteo_Lai3]

@YounisJoseph Trust me, this phrase is more true than you think

[Matteo Lai @Matteo_Lai3]

@shanewaxler @bryan_johnson Great work! Are you using this model in actual hospitals?

[Matteo Lai @Matteo_Lai3]

@rikiyatakehi @MIT_CSAIL @a1zhang @lateinteraction You just contributed to a piece of history with a X post

@radRounds These animations won’t stop surprising me

@MaziyarPanahi With this small numbers I would say it’s a coincidence this 95% - what happens if you repeat the test on groups of, let’s say, 50 healthy scans, and average the results?

[Matteo Lai @Matteo_Lai3]

@MaziyarPanahi I see a near future in which it’ll be mandatory for radiologists to use tools like this

[Matteo Lai @Matteo_Lai3]

@MaziyarPanahi Probably big hospitals, but most of them are definitely not ready, and one of the main limitations are physicians’ habits

[Matteo Lai @Matteo_Lai3]

@francisdeng @HeyEpic Most of the hospitals/physicians are definitely not ready to use systems like this

[Matteo Lai @Matteo_Lai3]

@EricTopol @NTFabiano @CorlZhou And I think more doctors should ask, "Do you play sports?" before prescribing medications

@whitfieldlewis6 I want to thank my Garmin for reminding me this every week

@j0nathanla Building in healthcare :)

[Matteo Lai @Matteo_Lai3]

@kryxnaa Med-tech is still valid? :)

[Matteo Lai @Matteo_Lai3]

@Jayasundar_ Hi :) building in medtech!

[Matteo Lai @Matteo_Lai3]

@PShadows2003 Building in medtech :)

[Matteo Lai @Matteo_Lai3]

@lightsilver323 But then is actually anybody looking at the other projects?

[Matteo Lai @Matteo_Lai3]

@pramodX16 Specializing in something different that what everyone is doing I’d say…

[Matteo Lai @Matteo_Lai3]

@johnHarry1018 Only if it would let me the time to enjoy other activities I like more

@albertolco88 @MetaMask @iota @letgo Hi! Enjoy your vegetable garden :)
