2/ What does Hippocratic AI do? 🤖🏥 They built a healthcare-focused AI assistant—basically, an AI nurse that can talk to patients, manage follow-ups, and provide support. It’s already being tested in hospitals, handling non-critical patient interactions to free up human nurses.

3/ Big money, big backing. 💰 They’ve raised $194M total—$53M in 2024 & $141M in 2025, with backing from Andreessen Horowitz, NVIDIA, & Kleiner Perkins. They’re betting big that AI can scale healthcare without sacrificing quality.

4/ Not everyone’s on board. 🚨 Nursing unions are pushing back, warning that AI can’t replace human judgment in patient care. They fear false alarms, loss of human expertise, and over-reliance on automation. So is AI a healthcare fix or a corporate cost-cutter?

5/ Final thoughts. 👀 Hippocratic AI could change healthcare forever—but should AI handle patient care, or should we draw the line? With AI becoming more “empathetic” and responsive, the debate is just getting started. What do you think?
