The role of conversational chatbots in health(care) - Meet Elizzbot

Artificial intelligence (AI) is an exponential technology poised to revolutionize health care as we know it.

TORONTO, June 5, 2018 /CNW/ - Artificial intelligence (AI) is an exponential technology poised to revolutionize health care as we know it. A 2016 study by Frost & Sullivan predicts the market for AI in health care will grow to $6.6 billion by 2021, with the potential to enhance care delivery, improve outcomes and reduce costs.

Saint Elizabeth has partnered with X2AI to create and market an AI Chatbot for family caregivers as part of its “Smart Family Caregiving” portfolio. Family caregivers often experience physical and emotional strains from balancing caregiving responsibilities with their own lives, and there’s not always a source that they could easily access for unbiased emotional support. This AI Chatbot can help fill that gap by chatting with caregivers via text messaging 24/7. It provides proven therapy techniques that are designed to help caregivers strengthen emotional resilience and wellbeing. At the same time, it can act as a friend, a listener, or a companion, who’s always there to listen.

Journalists are invited to participate in all aspects of the event which is a forum designed to preview Elizzbot and hear about how it was developed, its current use and what this exciting technology means for the future of people.
