Overheard a guy at the coffee shop saying AI can now predict heart attacks 4 hours before they happen...

He was a cardiologist talking to his buddy about some new model they're testing at Cleveland Clinic. Has anyone here actually seen a clinical AI tool that works in real life, not just in a study?

Honestly, my aunt's smartwatch flagged her for AFib two days before she felt anything, and the doc said it was spot on. These tools are definitely making their way into real clinics.

Rose said her aunt's smartwatch caught AFib before she felt it. I mean, great for her aunt, but now I'm just waiting for my phone to interrupt my day with "Hey, you're gonna have a medical emergency in 4 hours, maybe wrap up that sandwich." My watch already judges my sleep schedule, I don't need it planning my ambulance ride too.

Did her aunt even notice anything wrong before the watch made her go to the doctor?
