Many people can’t read the names of medicines and the doctors’ notes they write in their prescriptions, but it seems that Google is about to solve this problem.
The company’s India branch announced that it is developing an artificial intelligence model that can identify medications prescribed by doctors in hard-to-read handwriting.
“We started working on the complex process of identifying what is written in prescriptions, by building an assistant model to digitize them using artificial intelligence,” the company said in a tweet.
And Google considered that, “Ironically, what makes reading prescriptions difficult on computers is the same thing that makes reading them difficult for you and me, as they are disorganized and full of clues that pharmacists must solve.”
The company stated that “the system is currently under development,” as it “will announce updates as they are introduced in the future.”
The new technology is likely to be part of the Google Lens library, which already has the ability to read handwritten notes.
