”Meet “Simplify,” a new system that a team of students from Penn State College of Medicine believes could do more than clear up bleary eyes. It could lead to better health outcomes, fewer readmissions and save the U.S. an estimated $238 billion every year.

Simplify is Penn State’s entry in the first Big Ten Augmented Intelligence (AI) Bowl, where academic teams from around the Big Ten Conference square off to determine how artificial intelligence can create the biggest bang in reducing health disparities. The Penn State team believes using Augmented Intelligence, a facet of artificial intelligence that seeks to enhance human intelligence, can knock down health disparities around the globe.

The competition’s panel of judges agreed that the Penn State team was onto something big, so they decided to award the group with first place during the Big Ten AI Bowl finals on Friday, Oct. 22. The win comes hand in hand with a $35,000 prize that will allow the team to advance their work on the Simplify software.”



Must be a bunch of stupid, out-of-state, trust-fund kids. I hate us.
