Microsoft-backed (MSFT)<\/a> AI<\/a> firm OpenAI (PC:OPAIQ)<\/a> is considering expanding into healthcare, according to Business Insider. More precisely, the company is exploring new consumer health tools, such as a personal health assistant or a platform that gathers and organizes medical data. This could allow OpenAI to succeed in a space where other tech giants like Google (GOOGL)<\/a>, Amazon (AMZN)<\/a>, and Microsoft have struggled for years. In fact, ChatGPT has around 800 million weekly users, and many are already asking health-related questions. <\/p>\n

Interestingly, recent hires show just how serious OpenAI is about healthcare. In June, it brought in Nate Gross, cofounder of Doximity (DOCS)<\/a>, to lead its healthcare strategy. It also hired Ashley Alexander from Instagram as its Vice President of Health Products. Experts say that OpenAI might finally solve the long-standing \u201cpersonal health record\u201d problem, where medical data is scattered across different doctors and systems. It\u2019s worth noting that previous attempts by Apple (AAPL)<\/a>, Google, and Microsoft failed mainly because users had to manually upload data, or hospitals were slow to share records. <\/p>\n

However, a recent U.S. rule banning \u201cinformation blocking\u201d is starting to change that, and companies like Health Gorilla and Particle Health now act as intermediaries that can help aggregate medical data for AI systems like OpenAI\u2019s. Nevertheless, for now, OpenAI isn\u2019t asking users to share personal medical records and is sticking to general health information in ChatGPT. In addition, company leaders say that they plan to collaborate with healthcare partners rather than store or manage sensitive data themselves.<\/p>\n
