Chinese Startup Trials First AI Doctor Clinic in Saudi Arabia
A Chinese startup has opened the world's first clinic in Saudi Arabia where artificial intelligence diagnoses patients, a key step in replacing human doctors as the first line of medical treatment.
Synyi AI, a Shanghai-based medical technology company, launched the trial program in Saudi Arabia's eastern Al-Ahsa region in April in collaboration with the country's Almoosa Health Group. The pilot will see a virtual AI doctor making diagnoses and prescriptions to patients on its own, through interactions similar to dealing with a human doctor.
