AI in healthcare doesn’t really exist right now.
It should. It has the potential to meaningfully improve patient outcomes and provider shortages.
A 🧵on why AI companies don’t make it from my vantage point as a digital health investor. 1/
It’s not even AI to begin with! When they say AI, it’s actually just ML. No deep learning, no neural networks. Basically glorified Big Data.
No shame in that. I’d rather see a solution that’s adopted vs. tech for tech’s sake. 2/

1/ @ACME’s invested in iconic D2C health companies like Curology, Pillpack, Brightside, & Tia. I ♥️ this space.
I take 1k+ mtgs/yr & invest in ~5 co.
Out of 955 emails,👇 are top reasons why I passed on D2C healthcare startups last year (🧵/18)
2/ I believe in founders & care about this model, so I always try to write a thoughtful email explaining my reasoning when I pass. In part this is bc passes aren’t forever – I’ve subsequently invested in companies I previously passed on!
