We sit down with Dr Will Reedy, who leads health for Accenture NZ, to discuss AI's transformative potential in healthcare.
Reedy explains how generative AI can enhance NZ’s health system, boost frontline and back-office operations, and address workforce shortages.
He also raises the ever-looming spectre of the need to truly aggregate residents' health data, which is a must-have if we want to realise the full potential of generative AI.
Plus, an interview with Jack Pugh, the NZ winner of the James Dyson Award for design, about his winning medtech device.
The Business of Tech is sponsored by 2degrees for Business.
