Agentic and Physical AI in Medtech How NVIDIA is Changing the Space
Agentic AI is AI that does your work, right? ⚙️
And Physical AI is just robots and stuff, right? 🦾
Not exactly.
When those technologies are applied to the medtech space, though, the meanings change.
Agentic AI can get you into the doctor faster. Phyiscal AI can (literally) save your life.
Prerna Dogra knows this all too well.
She's the Senior Manager for Healthcare AI Products at NVIDIA, and she joined the Everyday AI show to show us how new GenAI advancements in the medtech space are doing more than spitting out quarterly reports.

1. OpenAI's Legal Battle: NY Times Lawsuit Moves Forward 👨‍⚖️
A federal judge has ruled that The New York Times can proceed with its copyright lawsuit against OpenAI, claiming the tech giant used its articles without permission to train ChatGPT.
While the judge narrowed the scope of the case, the core copyright infringement claims remain intact, marking a significant moment in the ongoing debate over data usage and fair use in AI development. As publishers fear a decline in web traffic due to AI-generated content, this legal fight could set important precedents for how AI companies operate in the future.
2. SEC Chairman Calls for Lighter AI Regulation Amid Policy Shift 🗞️
In a notable shift, Acting SEC Chairman Mark Uyeda has urged for a more lenient regulatory approach to artificial intelligence, aligning with President Trump’s recent actions that overturn the previous administration’s policies. Speaking at an SEC-hosted AI event, Uyeda criticized “overly prescriptive” rules that could stifle innovation and called for effective regulations that adapt to rapid technological advancements.
This comes on the heels of Trump’s executive order aimed at reaffirming the U.S. commitment to AI leadership globally, including a review of Biden-era restrictions.
3. Low-Code Revolution: 95% of Companies Onboard! đź“Š
In a new report from Infragistics, a staggering 95% of organizations have utilized low-code and no-code solutions for software development in the past year, underscoring their pivotal role in modern app creation.
As AI integration continues to rise, 84% of tech leaders assert that these platforms won't be overshadowed; instead, they anticipate AI will enhance their efficiency. The report reveals that nearly all tech leaders are enjoying substantial time and cost savings, with 98% reporting reduced development times and 62% cutting software costs.
4. North Korea Unveils AI-Powered Suicide Drones and Early-Warning Aircraft 🇰🇵
In a striking announcement, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has prioritized the development of suicide drones equipped with artificial intelligence, showcasing the nation’s latest military advancements amid ongoing international scrutiny.
State media reports reveal that Kim inspected upgraded reconnaissance drones capable of identifying ground and maritime targets, emphasizing the importance of unmanned technology for modern military strategies. Additionally, North Korea introduced its first airborne early-warning aircraft, aiming to bolster its aging air defense systems, a move that could significantly enhance its surveillance capabilities.
5. OpenAI's Image Generation Sparks Demand, New Limits 🖼️
OpenAI has introduced a new image generation feature in ChatGPT that’s already causing quite the stir, prompting CEO Sam Altman to announce temporary rate limits due to overwhelming user demand.
While users flock to create images in the iconic Studio Ghibli style, the company is working on enhancing efficiency amid rising server strain. Free users will soon face limits on daily image generations, a move reminiscent of theme park fast passes for smoother experiences.
🦾How You Can Leverage:
Your MRI scan isn't just processed by fancy equipment.
It's actually transformed by the same tech that powers video games.
And that DaVinci surgical robot?
It's got NVIDIA inside.
Prerna Dogra revealed these insights while showing us how their three-computer system is revolutionizing healthcare by letting AI practice surgeries thousands of times in simulation before touching a single patient.
Prerna is the Director of Product Management for Healthcare AI at NVIDIA and she joined our show today to give us the lowdown on agentic and physical AI in med tech.
Here’s what ya need to know. 👇
1. GAMING TECH POWERS YOUR CANCER DIAGNOSIS 🎮
Ever wondered why medical imaging keeps getting better?
Gaming tech.
Seriously.
Prerna spilled the beans during our GTC conversation. Every MRI and CT scan you've ever had was processed by GPUs - the same chips powering Fortnite and Call of Duty.
These graphics processors transform raw sensor data into crystal-clear diagnostic images while simultaneously reducing radiation exposure.
For Prerna, this isn't just business. Her father's prostate cancer surgery was performed by a Da Vinci robotic system powered by NVIDIA tech.
Personal stakes in medical advancement.
Try This
Ask your radiologist if they're using AI-enhanced imaging reconstruction. If they look confused, find a new imaging center.
Modern GPU-accelerated systems can detect tumors better than older technology.
2. HOW ROBOTS PRACTICE SURGERY 10,000 TIMES 🦾
Prerna shared how NVIDIA’s three specialized computers work together to form one revolutionary medical platform:
AI computer: Creates sophisticated models through training.
Simulation computer: Lets those models practice endlessly.
Real-time computer: Controls the robot during actual procedures.
The game-changer?
Simulation time isn't real-world time.
A robotic surgeon can practice a delicate procedure thousands of times in days. No human gets that much practice in their entire career.
Try This When evaluating medical AI vendors, demand their simulation-to-reality metrics.
How many practice runs before deployment? What was their error rate improvement curve? Top systems show 99.5%+ success after 5,000+ simulations.
3. AI FILLING HEALTHCARE'S CRITICAL STAFFING GAPS 👩‍⚕️
We're short millions of healthcare workers.
AI is filling the void.
Prerna highlighted how companies like Hippocratic AI create digital agents making post-operative calls to patients. These assistants verify medication adherence, answer questions, and flag concerns for human review.
Meanwhile, Epic (America's largest medical records system) is integrating NVIDIA AI to translate medical jargon into plain English in your MyChart app.
Imagine actually understanding what "idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura" means without a medical degree.
Revolutionary.
Try This Time one repetitive clinical task at your organization. Calculate monthly hours wasted. Research AI solutions specifically for that workflow. Present leadership with a 90-day implementation plan showing ROI in reclaimed staff time.
The real medical AI revolution isn't replacing humans.
Nope.
It's extending human capabilities. It's WonderCraft's exoskeletons helping paralyzed patients walk again. It's Synchron's brain interfaces letting ALS patients communicate after losing speech. Technology solving previously impossible medical challenges.
With physical AI and agentic systems, the future of medtech is bright.
