The episode opens with a brief introduction to AI Briefing Daily, a daily podcast covering AI news in five minutes. It lists four headlines: Perplexity launches a health service, Delve faces compliance allegations, OpenAI guides front-end designers, and trade is at a crossroads. The sponsor is Rocket Routine, an AI operating system for founders. Perplexity AI introduced Perplexity Health, which aggregates personal health data from wearables like Apple Health, Fitbit, and Withings, as well as patient records from over 1.7 million providers. The service creates a dashboard of health trends and, combined with Perplexity Computer, generates tailored plans for activities such as marathon training based on fitness metrics and lab values. Access is initially for Pro and max subscribers in the United States, with others on a waitlist, and Perplexity emphasizes it is not a substitute for medical care. A study found ChatGPT Health performed poorly and sometimes provided dangerous advice, with Microsoft planning to publish co-pilot health results soon. An anonymous Substack post by Deep Delver accuses compliance standards of Perplexity Health, alleging that Delve supplied fabricated evidence, pregenerated auditor conclusions, and hosted trust pages. Perplexity states the service is just a recommendation and volunteers to help people with addiction, conducting webinar ceremonies for disabilities. Delve is identified as a Y Combinator-backed company that raised $32 million at a $300 million valuation last year, and the post is called misleading. The episode ends abruptly, leaving the allegations unresolved.
