In the latest episode of "The AI Compass," we address the exciting question of how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing medicine and education. Our guest is Edmund White, Vice President for Business Development at AI Body. With over 30 years of experience in health technology, White is a pioneer in the development of digital human organisms – a technology that elevates medical training and clinical applications to a new level.

AI Body has developed an AI tool that simulates human organisms made up of digital cells. These models enhance the understanding of human physiology and provide medical students with new learning opportunities by shifting the focus from the traditional "top-down" approach to a more holistic one.

Another highlight is Nova Heart, a clinical tool that transforms 2D echocardiograms into interactive 3D models. Particularly in pediatric cardiology, this technology facilitates collaboration between doctors and parents and improves the understanding of heart structure and function.

Productivity and Efficiency through AI

AI plays a central role not only in the products of AI Body but also in the internal processes of the company. With the help of generative AI and language models, realistic scenarios can be created for medical training, everyday tasks can be automated, and strategic decisions can be supported.

Scavenger, a leading company in AI-driven data analysis, successfully follows this approach. With its platform, Scavenger enables cross-database queries in natural language and delivers results in seconds. This saves companies valuable time and enhances their decision-making processes, such as in pattern recognition in customer behavior or optimizing revenue strategies.

Despite the numerous advantages, Edmund White points out the risks of AI. Especially in medicine, it is crucial to ensure transparency, ethical guidelines, and human control. The EU AI Act sets clear frameworks that are particularly important in sensitive areas like healthcare. For companies, this means operating within strict but necessary guidelines to ensure safety and fairness.

Creativity and Humanity in Focus

An exciting point of discussion was the question of how AI influences human creativity. While AI takes over routine tasks, thereby creating space for creative thinking, the appreciation of human works could grow in the future. White sees this as an opportunity to celebrate our uniqueness and redefine the role of creativity.

The central message of this episode: Despite technological advances, humans must remain at the center. AI should serve as a tool to enrich our lives and strengthen relationships between people.
