Welcome to the first episode of The Healthcare AI Podcast, presented by John Snow Labs!
Join John Snow Labs CEO David Talby and CTO Veysel Kocaman, as they crack open the future of medicine.

They’ll reveal how state-of-the-art Healthcare AI is transforming the industry, directly comparing leading Frontier LLMs like OpenAI's GPT-4.5, Anthropic's Claude 3.7 Sonnet, and John Snow Labs’ Medical LLM.

Dive deep into critical clinical tasks, from summarization and information extraction to de-identification and clinical coding. You'll get expert insights from practicing doctors evaluating these models for factuality, relevance, and conciseness, demonstrating which AI truly delivers.

Bonus, understand the significant cost differences and learn why private, on-premise deployment is a game-changer for data privacy and compliance. You'll walk away with a deeper knowledge of the models poised to revolutionize healthcare, ensuring accuracy and compliance in your AI initiatives.
