An analytical article published in the journal Nature on September 19, 2025, examines the experience of using a comprehensive AI platform in China for managing patients with chronic diseases. The system, integrated with national clinics, uses data from electronic health records and wearable devices to continuously monitor the condition of patients, for example, with diabetes. The AI analyzes this information and provides personalized lifestyle and treatment recommendations, as well as alerting doctors to risks. The Nature article highlights the enormous potential of such an approach to scale quality healthcare amid a shortage of doctors. However, it also raises critical questions: the need for rigorous clinical validation of AI recommendations, the challenges of protecting the privacy of vast data arrays, and the lack of adequate regulatory oversight for such complex systems.
