AMIE, our research medical AI system, demonstrates real-time clinical video consultation capabilities in a first-of-its-kind study.
In a randomized simulated study, evaluators rated AMIE favorably on diagnostic accuracy and communication, and patient actors preferred video over text chat.
- AMIE interprets visual and auditory cues, guides virtual physical exams, and reasons diagnostically in real time.
- It is built on Gemini and Project Astra using a multi-agent architecture.
- The randomized study used simulated consultations with patient actors and a group of primary care physicians.
- AMIE remains a research system; more research is needed before responsible real-world clinical deployment.
Primary care physicians and patients now have evidence that an AI system can conduct video consultations with expert-level clinical performance, extending medical AI beyond text-based interactions.
