Could AI have a hand in equipping healthcare professionals with people management and communication skills?
Well according to the founders of Singapore-based AI Startup MediVR, it can!
MediVR is apparently creating generative AI virtual humans that can perceive, talk and respond with human-like training behaviour, allowing professions to practise their people management and communication skills in a safe environment and with greater efficiency.
Aside from doctors, MediVR said its virtual humans have also been used to train Teachers, Social Workers and Financial Advisors.
But how much money is the market for virtual humans worth? And what are the intricacies involved for a company making money out of virtual humans?
On Under the Radar, Drive Time’s finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to Jeremy Ong, COO and Co-founder, MediVR.
