More and more Americans are turning to consumer AI platforms for medical information. Until now, those educational conversations with AI have taken place outside of the healthcare system. Without access to the user’s private and secure medical information, educational information provided by the AI tool may not be as meaningful to the user. Today, Harford HealthCare and K Health announced the launch of PatientGPT, the nation’s first AI system with the ability to securely access the user’s medical record. PatientGPT, accessible right within the Hartford HealthCare patient portal and app, is rolling out as a beta version for a limited number of patients to try.Jeff Flaks is the President and Chief Executive Officer of Hartford HealthCare, a $7.0-billion enterprise that cares for more than 27,000 people daily. Allon Block co-founded K Health after being inspired by his own frustration with the U.S. healthcare system to build a better solution. They speak with Bloomberg's Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The people, companies and trends shaping the global economy.Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF.US President Donald Trump called on other nations to wrest control of the Strait of Hormuz as Iran maintained missile fire across the Persian Gulf, expressing his frustration that the monthlong war remains unresolved.Countries that can’t get energy supplies due to the effective closure of the vital waterway should “go to the Strait and just TAKE IT,” Trump said in a social-media post on Tuesday.“You’ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself” as the US “won’t be there to help you anymore,” he added, the latest sign he’s looking to exit a conflict that’s triggered a surge in oil and gas prices and stoked fears of a global economic crisis. “Go get your own oil!” he added.Stocks climbed and oil prices fell on hopes that both US and Iran might be looking for a way out of the war. WTI Crude was trading around $101 a barrel, travel stocks climbed and the S&P Energy Index turned negative, giving up an earlier gain of as much as 1.4%.Those moves came after Iran’s state news agency reported a phone call between European Union Council President Antonio Costa and President Masoud Pezeskhian, who said the Islamic Republic has “the necessary will to end this war,” but only with guarantees “to prevent the recurrence of aggression.” It wasn’t immediately clear if his comments represent a change in Tehran’s position.Tehran kept up strikes on Israel and countries around the Persian Gulf, including the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia, with one attack hitting a large Kuwaiti oil tanker off the coast of Dubai. That was one of the most significant assaults on shipping since the US and Israel began bombarding the Islamic Republic on Feb. 28.Today's show features: Jennifer Welch, Bloomberg Economics Chief Geoeconomics analyst on state of ongoing Iran negotiations as Trump calls on allies to seize Hormuz as frustration mounts Peter Atwater, Financial Insyghts President & Adjunct Lecturer of Economics at the College William & Mary on K-Shaped economy amid Iran shocks Loren Grush, BN Space Reporter on Artemis II launch Stew Leonard Jr., Stew Leonard's President & CEO on consumer pressures in the grocery aisle amid Iran, pricier Easter & Passover tables See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The people, companies and trends shaping the global economy.Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF.The White House threatened further escalation of attacks on Iran, including critical civilian energy infrastructure, as the fifth week of war jolts global markets with little sign of relief.President Donald Trump earlier on Monday posted on social media that if Tehran doesn’t re-open the Strait of Hormuz, “we will conclude our lovely ‘stay’ in Iran by blowing up and completely obliterating” electricity plants, oil facilities and “possibly” desalination infrastructure.Trump has regularly vacillated between saying a deal with Iran is imminent and warning he’s prepared to increase the military tempo. The threat to water facilities would constitute a war crime as defined by the Geneva Conventions. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the US is “conducting more intense, targeted strikes with devastating combat power with each passing day” and the US operations are proceeding “according to plan,” even as she echoed the president in saying talks are on track. The administration hasn’t identified which Iranian officials it’s dealing with, directly or indirectly.Despite the mystery surrounding peace talks, Leavitt said the Iranians were “increasingly eager” to negotiate and agreed to “some of the points” that the US has put forward to end the conflict. Iran has consistently said peace talks aren’t progressing and has signaled it can carry on fighting for much longer.Today's show features: Maj. Gen.

In 2017, a small crew gathered in a windowless Pentagon room to put AI at the heart of how America makes war. Led by Drew Cukor, an unyielding Marine Corps colonel driven by the deaths of US troops and the prospect of war with an AI-equipped China, the Project Maven team raced to send AI into combat, igniting controversy and forever changing the US military. Summoning the mayhem of a tech startup, the Maven team wrestled Pentagon bureaucrats and each other. They enlisted an initially reluctant Silicon Valley, supercharged the growth of Palantir, and sent algorithms made by Amazon, Microsoft, and others into hot wars. Maven fielded technology to identify targets at speed and scale, developed AI-infused command systems, and learned where AI fails.Katrina Manson, Bloomberg News Reporter covering technology and national security, talks about her book Project Maven: A Marine Colonel, His Team, and the Dawn of AI Warfare.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If you want to build a diversified portfolio, you need to assemble assets that respond to different return drivers. Digital assets can play a central role. For starters, cryptocurrencies like bitcoin behave differently than traditional equities or commodities, giving portfolios exposure to unique sources of risk and return. And within the crypto universe, you can find coins, protocols, and equities that all behave differently under different market conditions. By investing in a wide range of digital assets you can potentially both mitigate risk and improve returns. This episode is sponsored by Coinbase.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The people, companies and trends shaping the global economy.Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF.The Trump administration is signaling to allies that it has no immediate plans for a ground invasion of Iran, even as it deploys thousands of troops to the Middle East, people familiar with the matter said. The people, who asked not to be identified discussing private deliberations, cautioned that President Donald Trump could change his mind at any moment or go ahead with an attack. They said the troops could serve a variety of roles, including to help with evacuations of American citizens but also to create a sense of strategic ambiguity about US intentions.Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Friday the US can achieve its objectives in Iran without the use of ground troops but their presence gives Trump options.“The president has to be prepared for multiple contingencies, which I’m not going to discuss in the media,” Rubio told reporters. “We can achieve all of our objectives without ground troops. But we are always going to be prepared to give the president maximum optionality and maximum opportunity to adjust to contingencies should they emerge.”A White House official, who requested anonymity to describe internal thinking, said it’s the Pentagon’s job to develop plans to give the president optionality, and noted that Trump has previously said he has no plans to send ground troops anywhere at this time. The official said Iran will be hit harder than ever before if they fail to make a deal.Today's show features: Iain Marlow, Bloomberg News National Security Editor Spencer Faragasso, Senior Fellow with the Institute for Science and International Security on Iran's stocks of highly enriched uranium Dimitra Kessenides, Bloomberg Businessweek Senior Editor and Professor Angel Saz, Director of EsadeGeo – Centre for Global Economy and Geopolitics, a leading B-school in Spain Drive to the Close with Mark Luschini, Chief Investment Strategist, President and Chief Investment Officer, Janney Capital Management See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
