Case Study - Introduction

       Google, in full Google LLC formerly Google Inc. (1998–2017), American search engine company, founded in 1998 by Sergey Brin and Larry Page, that is a subsidiary of the holding company Alphabet Inc. More than 70 percent of worldwide online search requests are handled by Google, placing it at the heart of most Internet users’ experience. Google has always seen itself as more than a search engine and advertising company. Now it’s turning its focus to healthcare, betting that its AI prowess can create a powerful new paradigm for the detection, diagnosis, and treatment of disease. In short, Google seems to be going after the healthcare space from every possible angle. Google is betting that the future of healthcare is going to be structured data and AI. The company is applying AI to disease detection, new data infrastructure, and potentially insurance. "Tomorrow, if AI can shape healthcare, it has to work through the regulations of healthcare… In fact, I see that as one of the biggest areas is where the benefits will play out for the next 10–20 years." said Sundar Pichai, CEO of Google. In this study we explore Google’s many healthcare initiatives and areas of potential future expansion. Furthermore, we will discuss the joining of an AI company called "DeepMind" to Google health (Wikipedia contributors, 2021). In short, DeepMind is dedicated to artificial intelligence research. One of its main initiatives is finding ways AI can be applied to healthcare. DeepMind was acquired by Google for $500M+ and is run by Demis Hassabis (Wikipedia contributors, 2021). The company is based in London and works closely with National Health Service institutions.
