Prince Khaled bin Alwaleed advocates for widespread access to AI-powered health monitoring in Saudi Arabia, emphasizing its potential to transform healthcare. In an interview with Arab News, he outlined key areas where AI can enhance public health and longevity.
Real-Time Health Monitoring for Every Citizen
Prince Khaled envisions a future where every Saudi citizen has access to an AI-driven health dashboard. This system would track metabolic markers, predict disease risks, and provide personalized lifestyle recommendations to optimize well-being.
Funding Longevity Research Like Defense Contracts
He urges the government to support health-tech startups with funding and fast-track their development, much like defense contractors. Investing in longevity research, he argues, is crucial for economic and social progress.
Shifting Healthcare from Treatment to Prevention
Prince Khaled believes the healthcare system should focus on keeping people healthy rather than treating diseases after they occur. He stresses that preventive care, powered by AI and advanced medical technology, offers a more sustainable and cost-effective solution.
Turning Healthcare into an Economic Asset
Extending healthy lifespans, he argues, can shift healthcare from being a financial burden to an economic advantage. By adding productive years to citizens’ lives, Saudi Arabia can reduce dependency rates and enhance workforce participation.
Making Longevity a National Priority
He calls on policymakers to prioritize longevity research and invest in AI-driven medicine, regenerative therapies, and cutting-edge biotech innovations.
Positioning Saudi Arabia as a Global Biotech Hub
Prince Khaled believes Saudi Arabia can lead the longevity revolution by offering regulatory flexibility, AI-powered clinical trials, and fostering public-private partnerships.
AI’s Role in Personalized Medicine
He envisions AI playing a key role in detecting diseases before symptoms appear, allowing individuals to take control of their health. AI-driven diagnostics and treatment plans could make personalized healthcare the new standard.
Redesigning Cities for Better Public Health
Rather than focusing solely on hospitals, he proposes developing cities optimized for public health, integrating AI-driven biotech solutions into urban planning.
Prince Khaled bin Alwaleed emphasizes that AI is not just a tool but a transformative force in healthcare. By adopting proactive, AI-powered solutions, Saudi Arabia can extend healthy lifespans and redefine the future of medicine.
