Listen Later

Avalon.Ai is an AI company dedicated to developing real-time enterprise solutions connecting customers with end-users through smart technology. In germinating global ecosystems, Avalon.Ai brings together many of the world’s best minds and talent to generate the greatest impact in solving worldwide challenges like the COVID-19 Pandemic and America’s Opioid Epidemic through its pipeline of AI technologies.

Americans are increasingly turning to opioids as depression and anxiety worsen during this pandemic, yet U.S. treatment centers are still shut down or turning away patients suffering opioid addiction. How can America help stop the opioid epidemic as it worsens and COVID persists? Dr. Sean McMillan, an orthopedic surgeon specializing in alternative treatments to opioids, works with a team of over 400 doctors called the Army of Warriors who seek to end opioid addiction. They are also piloting Avalon.ai, an AI platform to assist in opioid detection and treatment. We discuss the causes of opioid addiction and how doctors are using Avalon.ai for opioid detection. We also discuss why opioid addiction is now worsening during COVID-19 and what steps can be made to help stop it.
