My apologies upfront for the paywall here, but even the small blurb is useful. What is the future of CCM? It's sort of like self-driving cars. Everyone is afraid of it, and maybe they should be, but we need to measure the outcome. When a self-driving AI gets into an accident, everyone panics. We’ve always been scared of it. But if you look at the total numbers, humans are far worse and scarier. 

Look for more automated types of therapy and health support through these AI systems.
