Sean said that he has noticed, most of the technology systems of healthcare services are often disconnected from each other for learning.
Sean said, Olive AI is here, and the days are over when bots used to disconnect themselves as they don't want to learn from others. With the latest investment, we can now help anyone through our healthcare services. We are on a mission to change the way people see healthcare and AI systems. Besides, it is focusing more on reducing the cost of healthcare and trying to improve the quality and quantity of people's lives.
