Google’s DeepMind partners with NHS: All the better to see you with

Nutshell:

Google’s partnered with the NHS’ Moorfields eye-hospital in London to apply its DeepMind AI to help identify eye diseases earlier.

Context:

Google’s machine learning division could help curb the number of people suffering from sight loss in the UK, but it’s not the first time DeepMind has been applied to healthcare; an app called Hark, acquired by Google, has been working on a pre-warning system for NHS staff to alert them to patients at risk of deterioration or death as the result of kidney failure.
