U.S. health care shifts focus to holistic well-being with prosocial AI as a key tool
A new approach to health care in the U.S. emphasizes holistic well-being rather than just treating diseases. This shift aims to integrate physical, mental, and social health, addressing systemic issues and promoting universal access to care. Pro-social AI is proposed as a key tool in this transformation. Unlike traditional AI, it focuses on ethical and equitable outcomes, offering personalized care plans, mental health support, and community engagement to tackle health disparities. To implement this vision, collaboration among policymakers, health providers, and technologists is essential. The goal is to create health systems that prioritize holistic principles and leverage technology for the benefit of individuals and society.
