Delphi-2M is a new generative AI system developed by European biomedical researchers to provide personalized long-term health forecasts.
The system leverages large language models trained on extensive medical data, including health records from UK Biobank and diagnostic codes from ICD-10.
It processes medical histories as sequences of events and can predict future disease rates for over 1,000 diseases simultaneously using prior medical and lifestyle data.
The researchers validated Delphi-2M with Danish electronic health records, demonstrating its ability to accurately predict risks.
Delphi-2M’s predictive accuracy is comparable to specialized models, but it offers a broader assessment without being as narrow in focus.
Despite its capabilities, experts stress that AI predictions should not be seen as definitive outcomes, serving more as guidance for preventive measures.
Initially a research tool, Delphi-2M and similar models could become mainstream in clinical practices with the right advancements and privacy measures.
