Generative AI in the Metaverse
My blog post for Psychology Today on Generative AI in the Metaverse came out last summer. As usual, I took an optimistic view of technology and explored the possibilities and its potential. For example, I loved thinking through the idea of implementing a large language model to be an inclusive facilitator of a meeting in the metaverse!

3 Healthcare Challenges
My article on the "MED-averse" w/ Daniel Kraft, MD went live on Psychology Today - 3 Healthcare Challenges the "Med-averse" Could Address.
Key Points:
--Multiple metaverses will likely be built with emerging technologies such as web 3.0, AR/VR/XR, and AI.
--Capabilities like telepresence, virtual training and education, and digital twinning will enable the "med-averse."
--A health- and medical-focused "med-averse" could help address issues such as chronic disease, the mental health crisis, and health disparities.

Lathan, Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of AnthroTronix Inc., explains how the data we routinely generate in our lives is enabling our approach to mental illness to move from treatment to prevention. She makes the case for doctors to monitor brain health as routinely as blood pressure.
