Episode Synopsis

A whizz-bang techno edition of The Big Middle for you this time - a two-parter.
I am fascinated - but often confused - by the hype about the potential of AI in health. It and other tech innovations are touted as the answer to so many of our health and lifestyle problems.
Boosters say it's the digital toolbox that will democratise healthcare, help shrink the widening access and cost divide between rich and poor and give all of us more power over our health.
In the first episode, we get a health tech primer of sorts from Nik Sehgal, CEO and founder of UK startup Vastmindz. It uses AI to better predict specific medical conditions.
