Faisal Mahmood: Excited to share PathChat, a multimodal generative AI copilot
Toni Choueiri shared a post by Faisal Mahmood, Associate Professor at Harvard University, on X:
“Very cool stuff from Faisal Mahmood group at Harvard Medical School, Brigham and Women’s Hospital pioneering work with AI and pathology, here in Nature.”
Quoting Faisal Mahmood‘s post:
“Excited to share our new Nature article building and evaluating PathChat, a multimodal generative AI copilot and chatbot for human pathology.
Open Access Link.
We leverage our previous success in building foundation models for computational pathology such as UNI / CONCH and combine it with the advancements of large vision language models and generative AI to enable PathChat to answer diverse pathology-related queries. We assessed PathChat using both multiple choice diagnostic questions and open-ended questions. Congratulations to Max Lu, Bowen Chen, Drew FK Williamson, Richard J. Chen and everyone else who contributed to this work. Also see blog post from Max Lu about this work, also teasing the development and preview of PathChat 2, a successor to PathChat 1 bringing new capabilities and substantially improved performance to the state-of-the-art.”
