Saw a Sahil Bloom post on Amara’s Law that perfectly sums up where we are with ChatGPT Health. We overestimate the short-term impact of technology (and get annoyed by the bugs) but underestimate the long-term compounding.

For brands, I’m honestly not sure yet if the winner will be the one with "more data" or "better analysis." But I am sure of this: You have to let the data out. If users can't easily get their info out of your platform and connect it to these systems, you’re going to lose relevance.

I’m actually testing this live this afternoon—meeting up with my dad to upload his MRI and blood work to ChatGPT instead of waiting for the follow-up appointment in two weeks. (All of us with older parents should expect to add this to our list of IT support we'll be offering this year!)

so cool! keep us posted on how it goes with your Dad!!

Update: ChatGPT Health read his MRI and lab work and basically said his symptoms are typical for his age (79). He didn't love hearing that, but was happy there wasn't something more serious (i.e., a tumor) causing his asymmetrical hearing loss. Another thought I had was how lifestyle data could be the big hack to get right. It's easy to upload a test. Harder to upload a month of activity, sleep, CGM, stress, and food data. Lifestyle habits are the foundation, and we might risk leaving that out of the equation if we're only focused on easily exported tests for answers.
