This session highlights diverse GenAI use cases in public health at varying stages of maturity—from early-stage implementation to real-time public health operations. The session begins with a brief level set on AI concepts (e.g., definitions, recent history, genAI capabilities, etc.) and how they can be leveraged for public health.
