Jasmine Smith, CEO of Web3-based wellness app Rejuve.AI, told Cointelegraph that decentralized and AI-powered platforms for health research do not aim to replace doctors and clinicians but rather help them in their work.Blockchain and artificial intelligence have long been paired to change how people view identity and verification. Between those innovations come data, described by experts as the new oil — extracted, amassed, refined, processed and turned into something useful.
“Being able to democratize that access and fill in the data gaps in places like Africa, Asia, and the Middle East will give us a more holistic picture of human health and longevity and us to give better recommendations… to assist their care.“Smith added that such initiatives do not aim to replace doctors and clinicians but rather help them in their work.
“I think everybody wants to get something for what they give, especially when it comes to health data. We’re wearing smartwatches and rings, and while we might get some little cool graphs on the app, we’re not actually getting paid.”
