Researchers are closer than ever to an AI-guided device to treat memory

Health technology can be useful, but it becomes risky when people mistake consumer sensors for medical devices. The key is understanding what the data actually shows and what it doesn’t.

Reporting

Phys.org Medical Research reports that Researchers are closer than ever to an AI-guided device to treat memory loss. In the late 1990s, a young Michael Kahana—then developing computer models of human memory—was invited to Harvard Medical School by a neurosurgeon friend to give grand rounds to the neurosurgery and neurology faculty. Afterward, he toured the ninth floor of Boston Children's Hospital. The key issue is evidence: what the device measures, how reliable the measurement is, who can safely use it, and where medical guidance is still needed.
