We're gonna do a Midjourney Medical AMA (ask me anything ) right here all afternoon. Post your questions below and we'll try to answer as many as we can! ❤️
My best friend Brandon Wirtz, a brilliant AI pioneer, died at the age of 40 from colon cancer.
The doctors missed it.
This would catch it.
I asked the first question because of Brandon.
I love @DavidSHolz who just announced this new unloading scanner and spa that could save many lives and is still giving one of the most interesting product launches I have ever been to.
I am sitting with the CEO of the company that makes the chip that both send and receives the ultrasound that will scan your body in one of these devices.
Incredible.
I was invited to sit in the front row because I covered David’s first company a long time ago.
What an entrepreneur.
Built this with taking no investors.
A future where imaging happens earlier, more often, and creates a richer picture of your health over time.
This is why I'm so excited about what @midjourney is building with @ButterflyNetInc's Ultrasound-on-Chip™ embedded. $BFLY
Few people know this, but the very early days at the founding of @ButterflyNetInc were an attempt at tomographic ultrasound. We quickly realized that it would never scale without ultrasound-on-chip. After a 15 year journey, I couldn't be more proud to see @midjourney build a safe, powerful, whole body imaging device based on that chip. @DavidSHolz is driving one of the most important evolutions of health and wellness of this decade, and I can't wait to see thousands of these out in the world one day!

Ultrasound on a chip is a foundational innovation, just like camera on chip, or gene sequencing on a chip. @midjourney is using semiconductor ultrasound to bring to market an entirely new imaging modality--safer, cheaper, faster than MRI and only getting better from here. Congratulations to an incredible team for spearheading a new era of wellness and healthcare!

Midjourney will be announcing its first hardware project tomorrow (Wednesday 6/17) at 6pm PT. Stay tuned for a livestream of our in-person launch event in San Francisco. If you're in town and want an invite, reply below, we have just a few slots left.
The Butterfly advantage 💪
When a contestant was injured in last night's Survivor 50 premiere, Butterfly ultrasound was used as the first step in assessing the injury—right on the beach, in real time.

This is why we’re proud to have Butterfly ultrasound on the International Space Station.
Portable, compact, single-probe imaging that can make all the difference in the most extreme conditions. 🚀

🌟 I am honored to share that the Butterfly iQ3 has received the prestigious Prix Galien Award for Best Medical Technology—widely considered the "Nobel Prize of life sciences."
Nearly 14 years ago, I set out with a vision: to make high-quality medical imaging accessible everywhere by putting an ultrasound system on a chip. I still vividly remember the moment I learned the Butterfly iQ had saved its first life—it was a feeling that left me nearly breathless.
Today, @ButterflyNetInc is a leading name in point-of-care ultrasound, and this recognition affirms our mission to push the boundaries of what’s possible in healthcare. This award isn’t just about innovation—it’s about the lives we’ve touched and the future we’re shaping.
Here’s to our incredible team and to transforming medicine through technology.
