An AI healthcare startup founder explains why they are avoiding institutional funding for now, emphasizing that trust is paramount in medicine.
They would rather spend five years building evidence for a reliable AI system and gaining the trust of colleagues and patients. This approach is preferred over raising $10 million without a mature product, only to lose the money on medico-legal costs if the AI harms a patient.
