LATEST DEVELOPMENTS
OPENAI
🏥 OpenAI’s dedicated Health experience
Image source: OpenAI
The Rundown: OpenAI just introduced ChatGPT Health, a brand new private experience throughout the chatbot that lets users pull of their medical records and fitness app data to permit health conversations — drawing on personal context as a substitute of generic advice.
The small print:
-
The feature taps into platforms like Apple Health, MyFitnessPal, and Peloton, with a b.well integration letting users import records from healthcare providers.
-
Health chats will get their very own isolated memory and stronger encryption for privacy, with OAI committing not to make use of those conversations to coach models.
-
OAI recently released data showing that 40M+ users turn to the platform every day for health info like symptom checks, insurance queries, and more.
-
A waitlist opens today with broader web and iOS access expected soon — though pulling in actual medical records is simply available to U.S. users for now.
Why it matters: OpenAI is moving on yet one more overarching vertical, joining education and shopping — however the stakes in healthcare are obviously higher. With the AI prescriptions refill news (see below) and AI devices gaining FDA traction, Health drops right because the tech feels on the cusp of gaining some serious recent medical powers.

AI & MEDICINE
💊 Utah’s AI renews prescriptions autonomously

The Rundown: Utah just became the primary state to let an AI system legally approve prescription refills by itself, partnering with health-tech startup Doctronic to offer patients with chronic conditions a faster path to routine medication renewals.
The small print:
-
The system covers 191 drugs, including blood pressure meds, contraception, and SSRIs — with pain management, ADHD treatments, and injectables off-limits.
-
When tested against 500 urgent care cases, the AI’s decisions aligned with doctors’ 99% of the time, with edge cases rerouted to human doctors.
-
Doctronic will charge $4 / refill, and is fielding interest from Texas, Arizona, and Missouri — with leadership predicting a dozen states could follow in 2026.
-
The timing aligns with a broader federal push, with the FDA also announcing relaxed rules for low-risk health wearables at CES 2026.
Why it matters: As we’ve seen with ChatGPT’s massive usage numbers for healthcare, a significant transition is already underway in medicine — and giving AI the power to handle prescriptions is step one towards crossing an impactful line from providing information to really making medical decisions and streamlining care.
AI TRAINING
🧾 Automate email expense tracking with Claude

The Rundown: On this tutorial, you’ll learn track and label your expenses from Gmail to Google Sheets in minutes with Claude for Chrome, an easy technique to use Claude as a private assistant without complex automation chains.
Step-by-step:
-
Install Claude in Chrome extension, then create a Google Sheet with headers: Expense Title, Company, Amount, Date, Renewal Date, and replica the link
-
In a brand new Chrome tab, click Extensions → Claude to see your current tab highlighted (Claude can work in any highlighted tabs it opens)
-
Prompt: “Undergo my inbox and find subscriptions from [Month + Year]. Navigate to [SHEET], fill each row with extracted data, with total at the underside”
-
Let Claude run for 10-Quarter-hour (prompt it to proceed if you will have many emails)—save prompt as a shortcut by typing / → “Create shortcut”
Pro tip: Once you will have a shortcut arrange, you may have it run every day or weekly on a schedule to maintain your expense tracking fully automated.

LENOVO
🖥️ Lenovo’s recent cross-device AI assistant
Image source: Lenovo
The Rundown: Lenovo just announced Qira at CES 2026, a system-level AI assistant designed to follow users between its PCs and Motorola phones for “Personal Ambient Intelligence” with context across devices.
The small print:
-
Qira’s system combines Microsoft and OAI cloud models, Stability AI for image generation, and integrations for Notion and Perplexity.
-
The assistant runs within the background by default, tracking users’ work to surface relevant files and suggestions if you switch devices mid-task.
-
Day-to-day capabilities include composing messages in a user’s style, live meeting notes with translation, proactive actions, and catch-up recaps.
-
Select Lenovo PCs get Qira this quarter, with Motorola phones and a dedicated keyboard key coming later in 2026.
Why it matters: Lenovo ships more PCs globally than anyone else, which suggests Qira is about to be pre-installed on thousands and thousands of devices. That type of built-in distribution is the one advantage most AI firms would kill for, however it’s fair to ponder whether anyone is asking for an additional unique assistant in an already crowded field.
