•How much can AI help tackle the next pandemic?
81% Informative
Researchers in California are developing an AI -based early warning system.
They have been collecting billions of tweets on X, formerly known as Twitter , over the past few years .
Project builds on earlier work by UCI and UCLA researchers, including a database of 2.3 billion US Twitter posts collected since 2015 .
The tool works by figuring out which tweets are meaningful and training the algorithm to help to predict outbreaks.
AI can pick up on chatter around symptoms, and spot potential threats before governments have announced them.
It can also pick up if people are advocating potentially dangerous treatments online.
Experts believe we're in a better position for the next pandemic, partly because of progress made in AI .
