9 months ago @Color partnered with @OpenAI and @UCSF to bring world-class cancer expertise to everyone. To achieve this, we designed a novel architecture that safely integrates GenAI into clinical practice. We call it a “Large Language Expert” (LLE). 🧵
BREAKING: Norway's $2 trillion wealth fund ran a 12-month AI experiment. They gave Claude access to their entire investment workflow. Result: 213,000 hours saved. 20% productivity boost. But what they found hiding in the data changed everything: A Thread 🧵
Great insights from @othman on the @hoh_pod with @halletecco on accelerating cancer care. There is such a need to overcome geographic and insurance barriers to earlier detection and first-line treatment at NCI Centers. Earlier use of virtual care is key.
