Healthcare & Life Sciences AI
Diagnostics, drug discovery, clinical documentation
Healthcare is the highest-stakes, most regulated AI vertical: FDA has authorized 1,000+ AI/ML-enabled medical devices as of 2025, ambient clinical documentation (Abridge, Nuance DAX) is the fastest-scaling enterprise AI use case, and AlphaFold-derived models reshaped drug discovery. Adoption is gated by HIPAA, FDA clearance, and clinical-liability exposure rather than by compute.
