Spring 2023 Update
What influenced our latest rating?
You know how a healthcare trend like “hospital in home” is really showing promise? When mainstream media outlets like The New York Times and NPR start covering it in depth. But since our last update in December 2022, it seems all anyone can talk about is Artificial Intelligence. In healthcare, there’s significant promise for AI, and rightful concern (though the comment “I see no potential for it in medicine” from a professor at the University of Washington might be a bit extreme). While AI rockets up the charts, other components of the Copernican Consumer are up and down, with blockchain sinking in the “Crypto Winter,” but Apple getting closer to blood glucose monitoring for the Apple Watch.
