Do you think AI can bring innovation to non-tech sectors like pet care?
- arnaud_r 2y agoWe tend to think that there's AI for everything, but building an innovative service is more about usage and value proposition. I think there's an opportunity to target "boring" industries with digital assistants that can provide tailored advice 24/7. What do you think?
- MattGaiser 2y agoThis seems too close to medical to accept AI at this stage.
- arnaud_r 2y agoAI should not replace a medical professional or claim to be a 'digital vet' when you need a real practitioner. When you Google for pet care advice, you end up spending hours finding the right answer, and it's not individualized to your pet. Booking an appointment with a vet can be frustrating when you just need quick advice and don't want to spend money for a tip. That's when AI expertise and accessible knowledge can be useful to users.
- nullindividual 2y agoHas this AI been to an AVMA accredited school and obtained a bachelor's degree? If not, are you prepared for medical malpractice suits brought against your company in the United States?
- arnaud_r 2y agoNo, it hasn't. But it's not a substitute for a veterinarian. It's more about general knowledge, actionable information and tailored advice for your pet. If anything is really serious, you should always see a vet! For example, a vet could use it with their patients to track what habits or exercises they do with their pets after a recommendation.
