AI Investor Forum: Gus Tai on AI in Healthcare (Part 3)

Sramana Mitra: Now, let’s shift to medical imaging, which is another area where AI is having lots of impact.

Sramana Mitra: Google’s AlphaFold is a good example of a model. A lot of scientists have been given access to it at an affordable price point. The impact it is having on scientific discovery and research is humongous. Somewhere in this continuum, I see that there’s a missing area where there is no Platform as a Service (PaaS) like AlphaFold that scientists can tap into to do drug discovery work using AI.

Sramana Mitra: We just discussed very thoroughly the K through 12, but in higher education, where we are dealing with much more complex topics and material, having the framework of a college or a university framework of teachers and professors, having a grading system or a degree system etc. and being part of that construct is actually helpful.

Sramana Mitra: This is interesting. It’s a little bit of a diversion, but I recently had an experience with a very close friend of mine who very readily condemned Joe Biden for pardoning his son. I don’t feel so strongly about that pardon because this is a father who has lost two children and a wife, and this is his only surviving son. Given that power, he is bound to make that choice. In my opinion, I don’t know any parent who would not make that choice. If I do the theory of mind experiment, I don’t see any father or any parent making any other choice given that power. The real question is, should a president have that kind of pardoning power?
