I\u2019m sorry I couldn\u2019t be there in person, but I was so excited to watch the Midjourney Medical<\/a> launch from afar. This is a really big deal. David Holz<\/a>, one of the most underrated pioneers in AI, has taken money from making cat pictures<\/a> to build a full-body ultrasound scanner that can give you incredible visibility in 60 seconds<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You can re-watch the livestream here<\/a>, which I recommend. You might remember David from Leap Motion, which I blogged back in 2012<\/a>. It\u2019s so cool to a small but mighty independent company innovate and apply learnings across seemingly disparate sectors.<\/p>\n

I wish all my friends in jazz and the arts who are despondent about tech could meet David:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re going to be a little confusing for the next six months as we announce all the things, but I\u2019m hoping as they all are out there, they form a picture which I hope feels cohesive. Most of them are around creativity, but some of them, like this, are just around positive human futures that we actually want to be a part of. And I think this is an important thing for AI companies to do\u2014for all humans to do.\u201d \u2014 David Holz<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

If you understand imaging, you know the tradeoffs between X-ray, CT (computed tomography), MRI (magnetic resonance imaging), and ultrasound, and Midjourney\u2019s approach doesn\u2019t cover everything, but what\u2019s incredible is the speed, amount of data, and using AI to process and get something useful out of it. Ultrasonics will be an incredibly exciting area over the next few years, first for imaging and later for intervention<\/a>. I can imagine a future where you dip into one of these once a month just to keep an eye on things, not just to find bad stuff but to see the impact of exercise or dietary changes.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re fairly new to scanning healthy people, and I always advise friends getting their first whole-body MRI with Biograph<\/a> or Prenuvo<\/a> that it\u2019s very common to hear something scary at first, only to find it\u2019s benign. Also, I\u2019ve now heard many examples of things that were caught and treated early, years before they might otherwise have been noticed.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
