What BBN said about it

  1. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorA new AI tool developed at NYU Langone Health reads years of three-D mammograms and predicts a woman's breast cancer risk up to five years before any diagnosis.

  2. Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistFive years out, Hank. That's a longer forecast than anything I'm allowed to give, and mine at least comes with a percentage.

  3. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorA machine that sees it coming. For once, I'd like to be wrong about being impressed.

  4. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorEarly warning is the whole point, and this one actually arrives in time to do something about it.
