Amazon is testing a generative AI-powered health assistant, dubbed Health AI, on its website and mobile app, CNBC reported March 25.
The chatbot is designed to answer health and wellness questions, suggest common care options for various medical needs, and recommend products. Some responses are marked with a “clinically verified” badge, indicating that the information has been reviewed by U.S.-based licensed clinicians, according to Amazon.
In addition to providing health guidance, Health AI directs users to Amazon’s online pharmacy and clinical services from One Medical, the primary care provider Amazon acquired for $3.9 billion in 2022.
