AIHealthTech Insider: Issue #44

14th April, 2025

Buckle up, health tech fans! AIā€™s stealing the showā€”slicing through surgeries, catching sneaky cancers, and morphing your phone into a health wizard. From robotic baby-making to sign language sorcery, these breakthroughs scream one thing: AIā€™s running the healthcare game.

Dive into the action šŸ‘‡

1. AI Makes IVF History: Robotic Fertilization

A baby boy was born using a fully AI-driven ICSI procedureā€”no human hands needed! Conceivable Life Sciencesā€™ system aced all 23 steps, picking and injecting sperm with laser precision from 3,700 km away. Four of five eggs fertilized, one became a healthy embryo.
