Very interesting news and development. Who would have thought that these firms are facing such issues?
Thanks for sharing!
Hope, the sufficient and huge data has been collected and organised with respect to their aspect (Health) . Further, most of the health related projects are long term projects and also need very huge investment. The other human assisted AI technologies will rule next decade ( it is better to focus here) . Overall, many health related projects have their own period. Hope other initiatives will be started from Google and Apple.
