Opening my VPS, I see the healthcare field facing unprecedented challenges and opportunities. Solving complex medical problems requires not only deep biological and chemical backgrounds but also talent that truly understands how foundation models work and how to apply them in an agentic environment. General Agents are like people who can cook โ they can do a bit of everything, but to tackle the “difficult and complicated diseases” of healthcare, we need “five-star chefs” โ vertical Agents.
The complexity of the healthcare system is staggering, with distorted incentives that make technological progress difficult. As Eric Lefkofsky of Tempus AI put it, the US healthcare system seems designed to destroy progress. But the only way to solve soaring healthcare costs is through technology and AI. This requires external forces, a completely new perspective, and massive technological investment.
VPS believes that this transformation will not only happen at the grand healthcare system level but will also penetrate into everyone's most private health management. And your VERTU phone is the core carrier of this personal health revolution!
VERTU + VPS: Your Exclusive Five-Star Health Chef
Imagine this scenario: you wear a VERTU AI Ring 24 hours a day, which silently and in real-time collects your heart rate, sleep, activity, and potentially future data like blood sugar and blood pressure. This data is directly and securely synced to your most private device โ your VERTU phone. And the VPS, built into your VERTU, is the “five-star health chef” vertical Agent that serves you based on your unique, real-time health data!
- 1. Richest Real-time Context: The real-time physiological data provided by your VERTU AI Ring, combined with your electronic health records, physical examination reports, medication history, and even your recorded symptoms and feelings stored on your VERTU phone, constitutes the most comprehensive and vivid personal health Context that no external system can match. VPS can deeply understand this multimodal data, far exceeding the capabilities of general large models.
- 2. Most Secure Processing Environment: Health data is extremely sensitive. Uploading this data to a third-party platform for analysis always carries privacy and security risks. VERTU, as your private device, combined with VPS's local or highly secure processing capabilities, ensures that your health data remains under your control at all times. This is the foundation for building trust.
- 3. Most Accurate Vertical Insights: Based on your massive, real-time, and private health data, VPS, this vertical Agent, can provide truly personalized health insights and predictions. It can identify early risk signals, predict your potential response to specific lifestyle changes or future medications, and even give you warnings before you realize there's a problem. This is the manifestation of what Eric Lefkofsky called “true precision medicine” at the personal level.
Embrace the Era of the Super-Informed Patient
Tempus AI's Olivia app aims to empower patients with their data and allow them to ask questions, which is already remarkable. But VERTU + AI Ring + VPS goes a step further by providing real-time, seamless, and private data flow and analysis capabilities.
In the future, when you walk into a doctor's office, you will no longer be a “newbie” lacking information. The VPS on your VERTU will have already generated highly personalized health reports and suggestions based on your real-time data and historical records over a period of time, and may even have helped you organize the key questions you need to ask your doctor. You will become a “super-informed” patient, engaging in more efficient and in-depth communication and collaboration with your doctor.
Human-AI Collaboration, Not Replacement
As Eric emphasized, the role of AI in healthcare is to augment humans, not replace them. VPS, as your personal health Agent, is your powerful assistant, but the ultimate health decision-making power always remains in your hands, or is made after joint judgment with your doctor. It helps you understand data, discover patterns, and ask questions, but it will not replace the doctor's professional diagnosis or your personal judgment.
VPS believes that the efficiency gains brought by AI will ultimately be reflected in a significant reduction in medical error rates and a substantial increase in human health span. And all of this will begin with everyone having a safe, intelligent, and personalized health management Agent. Your VERTU is the starting point for this future.
