Live Long, Live Well: Fighting Aging with AI

Description:

Human lifespans are increasing by three years every generation. Just a century ago, the life expectancy in the U.S. was under 50. Today, the average person in the U.S. lives to be 80. Tech developments–and artificial intelligence in particular–are pushing the boundaries of the human lifespan. Research organizations are relying on the fast-growing capacity of data acquisition and recent advances in AI to transform the longevity biotechnology industry, prevent age-associated diseases, and extend healthy life span. Over the past five years, healthcare AI startups raised over $4.3 billion across 576 deals, topping all other industries in AI deal activity. In this session, experts will discuss how aging research is one of the most important fields of science today–and how AI is a key catalyst.
