In this episode, Adi Diner, co-founder and CEO of iFocus Health, discusses the role of AI in ADHD treatment and mental health care. Adi shares her personal journey with ADHD and how it inspired her to develop objective, data-driven approaches to measuring progress in ADHD treatment. She explains how iFocus Health uses webcam technology to track eye movements as a proxy for measuring progress. Adi also discusses the intersection of AI and diversity in hiring, the challenges and opportunities of AI in healthcare, and the importance of bridging the gap between clinicians and AI experts. She emphasizes the need to address bias in AI and the importance of involving clinicians in the development and validation of AI tools. Adi invites individuals with ADHD to try out the iFocus Health product and provide feedback, and she highlights the need for funding and support to advance their work in the ADHD space.
AI can play a crucial role in measuring progress and improving treatment outcomes in ADHD and mental health care.
Addressing bias in AI is essential to ensure fair and accurate results, particularly in healthcare.
AI should be seen as a tool to enhance the work of doctors and clinicians, not replace them.
There is a need for more funding and support for startups working in the ADHD and mental health space.
