Digital health company Everlywell is rolling out Clairity Breast nationwide: an FDA-approved AI tool that analyzes a single mammogram to predict a woman's five-year breast cancer risk as a 0-100 probability score, rather than detecting existing tumors. Previously limited to select sites in Massachusetts and Colorado, it now costs $249 out of pocket and is not covered by insurance. The NYT profiles a 65-year-old patient who took preventive steps after an AI-flagged elevated risk. Elon Musk amplified the story, arguing that in the near future it will be considered malpractice not to run every X-ray, lab report and blood panel through an LLM, and that patients will do it themselves with personal models, saving millions of lives.
