With SignalSTAT’s solution, veterinarians can get full interpretation results in less than one hour, 24/7, at a cost-effective price of $75 or less per study. This report mirrors a radiologist report that includes the differentials, recommendations, and next steps. As a testament to their confidence in their systems, and unlike any other teleradiology provider, SignalPET also offers a 100% guarantee, covering any and all financial claims against veterinary practices using the systems.

SignalPET’s technology was created through continuously evolving machine-learning algorithms that get progressively smarter as the tool is used by veterinarians around the world. The technology assures rapid results, increased speed of diagnosis, a reduced burden on veterinary radiologists in high demand, lower overall veterinary costs, and a contribution to the best possible health care for pets everywhere.

Dr. Neil Shaw, the Chief Veterinary Officer and Medical Founder of SignalPET, advocates for comprehensive care, stating, “We’re committed to ensuring every patient receives a thorough interpretation report. As traditional radiology interpretations experience increased prices or stretched turnaround times to manage demand, SignalSTAT steps in; offering an affordable, guaranteed solution, promptly bridging the gap in care to all patients.”

In response to the launch of SignalSTAT, veterinary diagnostic imaging specialist Avi Avner, BSc, BVSc, CVR, DVDI, MRCVS, said, “This technology really shows the extent to which AI can work with humans, rather than against them, to create better, more efficient outcomes in our fields of work. To see how truly powerful this technology can be at working with veterinary teams as a support to offer faster, more accurate, and more affordable care is astounding.” Avner went on to add, “Because of time limitations, veterinarians are often forced to review urgent cases at breakneck speeds, which can lead to incomplete, or a less thorough understanding of the results. In these critical cases with only a short period of time to review, SignalSTAT offers essential quality processes and comprehensive reporting in record time — a solution that could, in certain cases, drastically increase the chance of survival for pets in critical condition.”

PRNewswire — Wed, 10 Jan 2024 11:08:07 +0000

Along with new AI features introduced to the global sourcing platform’s Smart Assistant, Alibaba.com highlights commitment to the entrepreneurial spirit with new Entreprenuts campaign

Alibaba.com, a leading platform for global business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce and part of Alibaba International Digital Commerce Group (AIDC), will launch its latest Smart Assistant features powered by artificial intelligence (AI) at CES in Las Vegas, NV from January 9-12, 2024. The Smart Assistant, an AI-powered global sourcing tool, caters to both newcomers and seasoned entrepreneurs in the dynamic world of global commerce.

As a one-stop B2B sourcing platform, Alibaba.com remains committed to delivering innovative solutions to help buyers and suppliers streamline operations to more efficiently reach their goals and continue to grow. The Smart Assistant updates unveiled at CES will help business owners adeptly enhance their supply chain and solve complex sourcing needs and challenges as they seek to stand out in today’s competitive marketplace.

small businesses face a variety of headwinds, but with the right technology and support, they can feel confident that they will overcome obstacles and help their business thrive, which is why we’re expanding the features of our new Smart Assistant tool to better serve today’s entrepreneurs,” said Chris Lu, General Manager at Alibaba.com North America. “With advances in AI, we are ushering in the next generation of sourcing and empowering small businesses to succeed with our Smart Assistant at their side.”

The Smart Assistant: Shaping the Future of Sourcing
Alibaba.com developed the Smart Assistant as an AI-powered, intuitive personal guide to sourcing that helps small business owners discover new opportunities, stay up-to-date on trends, seamlessly track orders and more in a single, efficient touchpoint.

First announced at CES and coming soon to the Alibaba.com Smart Assistant is the Instant Help feature, which leverages an AI-powered chatbot to answer basic inquiries and offer real-time insights and resources, regardless of time zones or language barriers. The Instant Help feature provides buyers with essential knowledge and industry insights about a variety of verticals and product types, as well as offer tips to elevate their communications with suppliers. It will help ensure small businesses can increase efficiency, purchase smart and keep up with trends by leveraging AI to increase competitive advantages.

Since their launch in September 2023, the first two features of the Smart Assistant – Upgraded Image Search and Smart Request for Quotation (RFQ) – have already provided significant benefit to entrepreneurs using the Alibaba.com desktop platform. Based on Alibaba.com’s internal study since September 2023, buyers using the Upgraded Image Search have seen a 28% higher deal closing rate than those only using traditional text search. Buyers who used the Smart RFQ tool saw 29% more quotes from suppliers, while suppliers saw a 21% increase in buyer responses to quotes as compared to the original RFQ process.

“Developed from buyer-supplier feedback and embedded with profound industry knowledge, we are excited to demonstrate how the Smart Assistant rapidly and accurately produces product requests and images aligning with buyer needs,” Lu said. “Smart Assistant helps buyers embrace their creativity, improve the efficiency of matching buyers and sellers, while making sourcing more accessible for all.”

Alibaba.com will provide a showcase of Smart Assistant features at their booth on Wednesday, January 10, 2024 at 11:00 AM PT, hosted by smart sourcing expert Stella Shenshen. The Alibaba.com booth is located at the Las Vegas Convention Center’s Tech East in the AI and Robotics section in North Hall’s Grand Lobby on level 1, Booth 9017.

Visitors to the booth will also have the opportunity to network and connect with 20 top-rated suppliers in-person, personally experiencing the ways Alibaba.com offers buyers advanced sourcing solutions and AI-powered tools to take their business to the next level.

Tech and AI Power the Future of Businesses, E-commerce and Sourcing
In addition to announcing new Smart Assistant features at CES, Alibaba.com leadership will discuss the evolution of e-commerce and sourcing, as well as how sourcing has been influenced and improved by AI and other technological innovations.

Rah Mahtani, Head of Marketing for North America at Alibaba.com, will be participating in the panel “Reshaping Retail – AI Creating Opportunity,” discussing how industry leaders like Alibaba.com are helping entrepreneurs and small business owners harness the power of AI to streamline processes in B2B e-commerce and across the retail workflow. This session will take place on Wednesday, January 10 at 1:00 PM PT on Level 4 at Marcello 4404.

Going “Entreprenuts” to Support Small Business Innovation
To complement its presence at CES, Alibaba.com is also debuting a new campaign celebrating entrepreneurial spirit and innovation. The Entreprenuts campaign highlights how entrepreneurs are willing to bet big, as well as maintain persistence and boundless creativity, against daunting odds. In other words, they can go a little “entreprenuts” to achieve their dreams and create new products – just like the products showcased each year at CES.

Throughout the Entreprenuts campaign, which will run from January 8 through February 8, 2024, Alibaba.com will encourage buyers to share stories of their craziest entrepreneurial moments, utilizing the most “nuts” stories in a video highlight to showcase what it means to be an Entreprenut. Buyers can also earn their Entreprenut badge and profile by answering a questionnaire that will determine their unique Entreprenut characteristic. At the end of each quiz, buyers will be provided with exclusive tools and services to help them achieve their goals as they kickstart 2024.

“This campaign demonstrates Alibaba.com’s continued support of small and medium-sized businesses in the United States and helping them realize their entrepreneurial dreams and push beyond what others might believe possible,” said Rah Mahtani, Head of Marketing for North America at Alibaba.com. “As buyers share their experiences, Alibaba.com will offer innovative new resources and products to help these ‘Entreprenuts’ succeed on their journey.”

The campaign debuts at a key crossroads for small business owners. The US has seen a surge in the number of newly registered businesses, which hit record highs in both 2021 (5.4 million) and 2022 (5.1 million). Sadly, 20% of these new businesses face failure within the first two years, and a staggering 45% of startups do not surpass the five-year mark due to challenges such as market volatility, supply chain disruption, shifting consumer demands, and inventory management. This makes the tools and capabilities Alibaba.com offers, which are designed to help entrepreneurs level up their sourcing and supply chain operations in the increasingly competitive small business arena, more valuable than ever.

Introducing R1, a Pocket Companion That Moves AI From Words to Action

Business Wire — Wed, 10 Jan 2024 11:08:01 +0000

Santa Monica-based AI startup rabbit inc. launched r1, a custom-built consumer AI device running on a revolutionary natural-language operating system. r1 was developed to take a leap towards an app-free online experience, by introducing an operating system that navigates all of your apps quickly and efficiently so you don’t have to. r1’s operating system, rabbit OS, is the first OS ever built on Large Action Model (LAM), rabbit’s proprietary foundation model that can infer and model human actions on computer interfaces by learning users’ intention and behavior when they use specific apps, and then mimic and perform them both reliably and quickly. rabbit’s unique new r1 device costs $199, with pre-sales open from and shipments beginning in late March 2024.

the beginning of a new era in human-machine interaction,” said rabbit Founder and CEO Jesse Lyu. “We’ve come to a point where we have hundreds of apps on our smartphones with complicated UX designs that don’t talk to each other. As a result, end users are frustrated with their devices and are often getting lost. rabbit is now building towards an intuitive app-free experience with the power of AI. Large Language Models, like ChatGPT, showed the possibility of understanding natural language with AI; our Large Action Model takes it one step further: it doesn’t just generate text in response to human input – it generates actions on behalf of users to help us get things done.”

Large Action Model (LAM) – Taking Human-Computer Interaction from Output to Action

rabbit’s proprietary Large Action Model (LAM) is the cornerstone of the new r1 device – and the foundation of the future of human-machine interaction. LAM is designed to make AI systems see and act on apps in the same way humans do. It learns by demonstration – observing a human using an interface and reliably replicating the process, even if the interface is changed. It works by first understanding complex human intentions, then spinning up on human-oriented interfaces across all mobile and desktop environments on a customized cloud platform, and finally interacting with apps within the platform to achieve certain objectives without the need for complex, custom integrations like Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). LAM fundamentally removes the need for users to download and use multiple apps on their devices, and instead proactively carries out the tasks on such apps for them.

rabbit OS – The First Operating System Built on the Large Action Model

rabbit OS, and the underlying LAM, adds abundant value to users’ online life with “rabbits” – personal AI agents that carry out various tasks. Most voice-based assistants in smart home and portable consumer devices only handle simple requests such as turning on lights or checking the weather. rabbit OS, on the other hand, can handle most of one’s digital errands – from simple tasks like searching for up-to-date information to complex tasks such as thoroughly researching and booking options for upcoming travel, or filling a virtual grocery store cart and completing transactions at check-out.

At launch, rabbit OS will already be trained to work with the most popular apps. In the near future, it will also feature an experimental capability that allows users to train their own “rabbits” to perform specific tasks on niche apps and workflows.

Through a web portal called “rabbit hole,” a cloud hub where users can relay access to their existing apps to rabbits, users can enable different features and functionalities for their r1 device. Similar to handing one’s unlocked phone to a friend who will help order takeout, rabbit OS performs tasks for users with their permission, without preemptively storing their identity information or passwords. rabbit OS does not create any proxy accounts, or require users to purchase additional subscriptions for their existing services, which leads to increased safety, security, and efficiency.

r1 – A New Approach to Intuitive AI Hardware

Dedicated to being LAM’s best vehicle, r1 is built as an intuitive companion device that saves users time. While phones have evolved into all-encompassing personal entertainment devices in recent years, r1 is positioned as a standalone hardware portal to cut through distractions and help users handle their everyday digital tasks smarter, more efficiently, and more delightfully.

In collaboration with the renowned design firm Teenage Engineering, one of the world’s leading innovators of award-winning hardware like synthesizers and other audio devices, the industrial design of r1 takes nostalgic cues from beloved retro gadgets like the Tamagotchi. Sleek and easily pocketable, r1 is roughly the size of a stack of Post-it notes and weighs only 115 grams. Available in an eye-catching Luminous Orange colorway, r1 is as strikingly beautiful as it is intuitively functional. It comes with custom hardware features including a 2.88-inch touchscreen display, a push-to-talk button, a scroll wheel for navigating through helpful “cards” to interact with different activities assisted by LAM, and “rabbit eye,” an AI-enhanced, motorized vision system that serves as a rotating camera. rabbit eye is capable of making video calls as well as executing some of the most advanced computer vision applications. These features empower users to trigger actions more quickly than on even the most powerful flagship smartphones.

Unlike most consumer smart devices that must be managed on a smartphone, r1 operates as a fully standalone handheld device, with both Wi-Fi and cellular connectivity options. Inside the casing it boasts a 2.3 GHz MediaTek Helio P35 processor, 4 GB of memory and 128 GB of storage, a USB-C port and an empty SIM card slot, which is factory unlocked for true versatility. The battery is designed to last for all-day usage. r1 is the first device brought to market by rabbit, and future iterations of the hardware will evolve over time, based on feedback from users.

Advanced Technology Centered Around Privacy, Responsibility and Sustainability

rabbit’s technology is built with privacy and security at its core. rabbit does not store any user credentials of any third-party services. All the authentication processes happen on the destination services’ login systems, so users have full control and freedom to link and unlink services to rabbit OS. rabbit’s data infrastructure is fully compliant with major industry standards, ensuring high levels of security and encryption. Users have the option to delete their stored data at any time they desire and will also be aware of and have control over which types of actions are being delegated to the rabbits.

r1’s hardware is also designed in a responsible manner. r1 does not have an “always listening mode,” and the microphone of r1 will not record unless the user presses the push-to-talk (PTT) button. r1’s rotating camera defaults to a position that physically blocks the lens unless the user explicitly requests it, and you can manually put the device face-down. rabbit’s hardware advocates that intelligence in the hands of the end-user is achievable without heavy client-side computing power. By carefully and securely offloading the majority of computation to data centers, rabbit OS’s unique architecture opens up opportunities for ample performance and cost optimizations, making cutting-edge interactive AI experiences affordable. The hardware device hosting rabbit OS, starting with r1, does not require expensive and bulky processors and consumes little power.

TruLite Health Announces Collaboration With Mayo Clinic to Address Clinical Bias & Improve Health Equity

Business Wire — Wed, 10 Jan 2024 09:58:38 +0000

Optimizing software to deliver equitable healthcare at scale

TruLite Health, developer of the only health equity solution to remediate clinical bias, announced a know-how agreement with Mayo Clinic to address disparities in medical outcomes and costs.

TruLite’s innovative software, Truity™, tackles persistent issues of clinical bias that adversely affect patient outcomes in diverse populations. The platform addresses this challenge by driving patient-specific clinical, social and behavioral interventions, leading to improved healthcare outcomes and costs as part of an organization’s health equity strategy. Alongside their deployment in clinical practice, Mayo Clinic’s physicians will provide feedback on user experience enhancements, workflow and platform improvements.

“This collaboration with Mayo Clinic represents a significant step forward in health equity capabilities to address this critical unmet need in the market,” said Alan Roga, M.D., Founder and CEO of TruLite, an American Hospital Association (AHA) Health Equity Transformation Partner.

Clinical bias in healthcare has far-reaching consequences, significantly impacting patient outcomes and costing the United States healthcare system $320 billion annually. Moreover, a TruLite actuarial study found individuals with one of seven chronic illnesses who are Black or Latinx cost approximately $5,300 more annually for the same disease compared to the White population.

Leveraging the largest health equity knowledge base, TruLite’s software directly integrates into an electronic health record (EHR), and in the workflow provides patient-specific actions and interventions for clinicians, care teams and patients. This integration empowers providers to improve equity at the point of care and aligns with regulatory drivers, including the Joint Commission, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid and Food and Drug Administration. Additionally, TruLite offers virtual health equity coaching with a focus on patient advocacy and through their partnership with the Morehouse School of Medicine.

The collaboration with Mayo Clinic comes on the heels of TruLite’s participation in the 2023 Mayo Clinic and Arizona State University Alliance for Health Care MedTech Accelerator Program, where the company was selected as one of nine international startups. This flagship initiative provides early-stage medical device and Healthtech companies with resources and mentorship to accelerate growth.

Mayo Clinic has a financial interest in the technology referenced in this press release. Mayo Clinic will use any revenue it receives to support its not-for-profit mission in patient care, education and research.
