Google is developing an AI and machine learning model that detects and highlights the names of 'pharmaceuticals' in handwritten prescriptions written by doctors.

The new model is similar to ' Google Lens ', which uses a camera to detect objects and characters around you, and is specialized for deciphering difficult-to-read doctor characters. It helps to detect medicines such as ' Alerfix ' from handwritten prescriptions that are not easy to understand at a glance as shown below.



Like Google Lens, you can take a picture or upload it from your photo library to decode it.



This AI was announced at the event 'Google for India' held by Google in India. At the time of writing the article, it was a research prototype and not open to the public, and Google said it was under development with the cooperation of pharmacists.

Google notes, ``This AI will function as an assistive technology for digitizing handwritten medical documents, but doctors will not make any decisions based solely on the results output by this technology.'' doing.

Google said, “The transformative impact of AI is clear, but the basic idea is to develop responsibly. We look forward to partnering with an ecosystem of innovators from start-ups, NGOs, and inspiring them to help deliver solutions that drive better outcomes for all.'
