Google has introduced Health AI Developer Foundations (HAI-DEF), a public resource designed to empower developers in building and implementing AI models for healthcare more efficiently.
The initiative aims to democratize AI development in the healthcare sector, fostering innovation and improving patient care.
HAI-DEF provides developers with open-weight models, instructional Colab notebooks, and comprehensive documentation to support every stage of AI development, from research to commercialization.
The initial release of HAI-DEF includes three specialized embedding models for medical imaging: CXR Foundation, Derm Foundation, and Path Foundation.
