Good talk but a bit long. Makes you think about how you can improve your
health through prevention
The future is closer than you think. From Exponential Medicine! Makes me
wish I was younger. I’m hoping my children, niece and nephews and their
generation will continue to carry the torch.
Good TEDx talk about healthcare by Dr. Daniel Kraft from Singularity
University in California
This is all very impressive and useful for an altruistic company,
researcher or healthcare professional but what’s to stop all this data
being used for other purposes? The internet is not a safe place for any
personal data and especially your medical records. Im willing to bet that
the majority of these devices require some form of internet access and
connection. If it can connect to the internet someone with enough time and
mind set can access it. Suppose it fell into the hands of an American
health insurance company who could use this data to alter costs?
Daniel – you are amazing ! go on and we’ll never die
