This April, Polina Talapova and Mariia Pahur represented SciForce at the 7th European OHDSI Symposium in Rotterdam – three vivid days of workshops, poster sessions, MindMeetsMachines mapping competition and an oral presentation aboard the SS Rotterdam, a retired ocean liner moored on the Maas river. The symposium's theme was Continuous Collaboration for Living Evidence Generation. The word "living" matters here. Traditional evidence-generation projects are often designed as discrete studies. A

Last spring, OpenAI released a GPT-4o update that made the model hard to trust: it returned sycophantic and less reliable answers than usual, even though nothing was changed in users’ prompts and workflows. When an LLM system starts drifting in production, the deployment history doesn’t catch it early: nothing changed in the codebase, and providers didn’t release any official updates either. Meanwhile, some providers might have adjusted a classifier without notice, and a request that worked fi

The COVID-19 pandemic changed how healthcare works. When in-person visits dropped, telehealth, remote monitoring, and home care quickly became necessary, and many of these solutions are now here to stay. Virtual hospitals and AI copilots are leading this shift. Virtual hospitals use video calls, remote monitoring, and mobile care teams to deliver hospital-level care at home. AI copilots support clinicians by drafting, summarizing, coding, and prioritizing information, while clinical decisions re

When speech recognition gets things wrong, the consequences show up in customer frustration, extra manual work, compliance issues, and lost revenue. Accuracy determines whether voice automation actually reduces effort, or quietly creates more of it. In practice, the accuracy seen in demos rarely matches production results. Studies show speech systems can perform 2.8–5.7× worse once deployed. A model that achieves about 8.7% word error rate (WER) in clean medical dictation has recorded over 50% W

When nearly 70% of visitors go straight to your search bar, you can’t afford for it to fall short. Yet most on-site search tools still rely on outdated keyword matching – returning irrelevant results or, worse, none at all. That’s why 80% of users abandon a site when the search doesn’t deliver. Meanwhile, companies using smarter search are seeing real gains. Amazon’s conversion rate jumps from 2% to 12% when users use search. The reason: newer AI tools powered by large language models (LLMs) und

Voice is becoming the new interface of work. From warehouses to call centers, AI-powered assistants are showing up everywhere: faster, hands-free, always on. The scale is staggering: the Voice AI Agents Market is forecasted to grow from $2.4 billion to $47.5 billion by 2034, and the approximate number of voice assistants in use globally is now over 8 billion – more than people on the planet. But recognizing speech isn’t enough anymore. In high-stakes environments like healthcare, voice AI ne

Coding is changing fast, and AI is now writing much of it. In 2025, more than 15 million developers use copilots like GitHub Copilot, Google Gemini Code Assist, and OpenAI’s coding tools to work faster and with fewer mistakes (GitHub usage data). Surveys show that 9 out of 10 engineering teams rely on AI assistants, with many reporting 25–50% productivity gains. The newest trend is the rise of specialized copilots for speech recognition and computer vision. These tools include built-in knowledge

Walk into a store, grab what you need, and leave – no checkout, no lines. Order room service without touching a phone. Get menu suggestions based on what you actually like, not what’s on special. This is how AI in retail and hospitality already working behind the scenes. Retail and HoReCa businesses (hotels, restaurants, catering) are using AI for retail and restaurant operations optimization to improve service speed, operational efficiency, and customer insight. This article looks at how that p

Large Language Models (LLMs) are changing how businesses work, turning complex processes into faster, smarter, and more efficient operations. These AI models can write, analyze, and process massive amounts of text in ways that once required hours of human effort. Companies are using them to power customer support, generate content, analyze financial risks, and even assist with software development – all with greater speed and precision. For many, enterprise LLM integration is becoming a core s
