    Unlike the consumer-facing ChatGPT Health announced Wednesday, the new OpenAI for Healthcare products launching today are designed do things like create reusable templates for discharge summaries and patient instructions, or analyze medical evidence to apply to specific patients.

    ChatGPT for Healthcare is already being used by healthcare organizations like Boston Children’s Hospital, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, and Stanford Medicine Children’s Health.

    Who’s making the most money in AI? It’s not who you think

    The fastest growing companies in the world aren’t AI companies, but the startups that supply them with warm bodies.
