BILLIONAIRE BUILDS CHATGPT FOR DOCTORS
Daniel Nadler, a Harvard Ph.D. and second-time founder, created OpenEvidence, an AI tool that helps doctors sort through millions of medical studies in seconds.
The software is free for verified doctors and already has 430,000 users in the U.S., handling over 8 million consultations each month.
Investors love it too: the company just raised $210 million at a $3.5 billion valuation, making Nadler a billionaire with an estimated $2.3 billion net worth.
Doctors say it saves time and helps avoid mistakes, even proving useful in emergencies like treating a sick passenger mid-flight.
By combining trusted medical research with fast AI search, Nadler says he wants to fix the information overload that burns doctors out.

🚨🇺🇸 NEW EYE DROP THAT COULD MAKE READING GLASSES OBSOLETE
The FDA has greenlit VIZZ, a once-a-day prescription drop that sharpens close-up vision for up to 10 hours, targeting presbyopia - a farsightedness that hits over 128 million Americans, especially after 45, when your lenses stiffen like week-old Jell-O.
Unlike the 2021 drug Vuity, which worked but sometimes dimmed your distance vision or gave you that “I’ve been frowning for hours” brow ache, VIZZ uses aceclidine to tighten pupils without overworking the focusing muscles, skipping those side effects and avoiding rare retinal problems.
3 large trials, covering more than 30,000 treatment days, found no serious issues, and the manufacturer says prescriptions could roll out by the end of 2025.
If it works as promised, your grandkids may only know bifocals as something from the “ancient” Ben Franklin era.
