#160: 🎙️ INTERVIEW | Prediction is All You Need with Michael Geer, Co-Founder of Humanity
What if healthcare could predict your future instead of just treating your present?
Healthcare is built on complexity, hospitals, payers, protocols, but beneath it all lies one simple mechanism: prediction.
In this live episode of Nina’s Notes, I sit down with Michael Geer, Co-Founder of Humanity, to explore how AI and large biological models are revolutionizing preventive healthcare. We dive deep into how prediction, not just treatment, could transform medicine as we know it.
What we discuss:
Why biological age matters more than chronological age
How large biological models work (think ChatGPT, but for your health)
The future of personalized medicine and digital twins
Why some people shouldn’t do 30 minutes of moderate exercise
How AI saved Michael from permanent nerve damage
The changing role of doctors in an AI-powered healthcare system
Humanity’s open-source LIFE model and what it means for the future
