@DrAliSKhan fresh off the press:
The Algorithm and the Village: Bridging the Global Health AI Divide with Local Wisdom. Medical Research Archives, [S.l.], v. 13, n. 8, aug. 2025. ISSN 2375-1924. Available at: <https://t.co/nsoUZvqVzq>.
Can GenAI help address global healthcare?

[Sajda Qureshi @SajdaQ]

@DrAliSKhan There is a little robot walking around our college building now. Unless it pours me coffee, I am not buying it.

[Sajda Qureshi @SajdaQ]

@DrAliSKhan Advances in predictive AI have important benefits in global health as we explain in our paper.

[Sajda Qureshi @SajdaQ]

@DrAliSKhan Agreed! In addition, Agentic AI has the ability to control humans by manipulating our key services.

@DrAliSKhan Critical thinking, I tell my students is their super power in the age of AI.

@DrAliSKhan How fortuitous to have Blumenthal as your mentor. His work on meaningful care is very inspiring, as is yours.

@DrAliSKhan There are quite a few FOFOs appearing from the CDC.

[Sajda Qureshi @SajdaQ]

@DrAliSKhan 🤣

[Sajda Qureshi @SajdaQ]

@DrAliSKhan Is there a technology platform amoung the states for PH data sharing?

[Sajda Qureshi @SajdaQ]

@DrAliSKhan Would health coaching in spa facilities qualify as public health training/treatment?

[Sajda Qureshi @SajdaQ]

@DrAliSKhan @ProLifeIVF There is no single sequence for intelligence. Even if someone’s SNAP 25 sequence predicts a high IQ, I would argue that intelligence is a function of the learning opportunities, nutrition, environment, community and relationships a child grows up with.

[Sajda Qureshi @SajdaQ]

@ProLifeIVF @DrAliSKhan If the goal is to choose healthy embryos, on what basis are they selected?

[Sajda Qureshi @SajdaQ]

@DrAliSKhan Still, it is morally problematic to be able choose between IVF embryos. How does this form of selection narrow the genetic pool? Would people select the same types of embryos?

[Sajda Qureshi @SajdaQ]

@DrAliSKhan In fact, the opposite. I had some undergrad students who refused to take notes in my class because, in their words: "we will just take a printout of the whiteboard" thinking it was electronic. I had to explain that my marker was actually ink and the board was white plastic.

[Sajda Qureshi @SajdaQ]

@LevendisJohn Not at all, even though many of the papers I grade are written by the usual LLMs. I could use AI to grade, but then the LLMs would be grading themselves and each other.

[Sajda Qureshi @SajdaQ]

@DrAliSKhan “All public health is global health”. What an impressive legacy. He reminds me of my father in Uganda who had two sets of vaccination syringes: large ones for cattle and small ones for the rest of us.
