1. ChatGPT Health debuts to analyze medical records, health app data

OpenAI.

  • Coming weeks: a dedicated Health tab will roll out on web and iOS.

  • Users can initially join a waitlist for early access.

  • The feature helps interpret data from medical devices, fitness trackers, and apps like Apple Health and MyFitnessPal.

  • AI won’t replace medical care but can help users navigate a complex health system, said OpenAI applications CEO Fidji Simo.

  • 40M+ people use ChatGPT daily for medical and health insurance questions, OpenAI said.

  • OpenAI said health data won’t be used to train models or in other chat types, though it may be disclosed in response to subpoenas or court orders.

2. Anthropic said to seek $10B at $350B pre-money valuation led by GIC, Coatue

  • Coming weeks: the round is expected to close, though terms could still change.

3. Tomorrow.bio is leading human cryopreservation across Europe and the US*

Tomorrow.bio.

  • We provide human cryopreservation, using extremely low temperatures to stop biological processes in the body. Patients are cryopreserved in the expectation that future technology may be able to revive them and treat their underlying cause of death.

  • We’ve improved all aspects of human cryopreservation, including patient storage, by building a secure long-term facility in Switzerland where patients are stored indefinitely until revival may one day be possible.

  • Membership includes cost savings on cryopreservation costs and access to our community and resources. Use code BAY10 for 10% off when you’re ready. Start by learning how cryopreservation actually works on our site.
