Illegal Migration In Britain

Now, if you haven't caught up with the story this morning, it's a good one. Health startup Heart Lab, uh local story, they use AI to speed up analysis of heart scans, basically. So they sell it as a co-pilot that speeds up the assessment, reduces the waiting lists, it helps a clinician, doesn't replace a condition uh clinician. So that's another part of that whole story. How many jobs are going to be lost with AI? Well, here's an example where the job isn't lost, it's just enhanced. Uh it's cloud-based, means a doctor in Auckland can easily assess a scan taken anywhere in the country, anywhere in the world, presumably. So the news this morning is they've won a contract for the tech to be used in Australia's largest cardiology chain. So it's all about commercial viability. It's one thing to have a good idea. Can you monetize the thing? And the answer appears to be yes, so this hopefully will lead to more and more deals. Programs been used so far for more than half a million patients across NZ, Australia, Britain, and Europe. Uh private operators account for nearly half of the uptake so far. But last year, Health NZ signed a two million dollar deal with them, so it all looks to be on the up and up. Let me tell you a couple of interesting things. I'll expand on uh one of them in just a couple of moments. But Australia today is expected to announce a reduction in their bans far too strong a word, but level four. And we're talking about the Middle East, uh, do buy Abu Dhabi. The European sum is coming. A lot of people travel to the European area over summer. So Australia's expected to announce today they're going to drop it from level four, which is do not travel through to level three. Now, being a sort of a fan of uh aviation and I watch a lot of travel blogs, people are traveling through the Middle East and have been doing so for months. It's it's there isn't a problem. You're taking a risk, not of being blown up, but of you know, something a bit weird happening, and then they close the airspace and all of a sudden you're sort of trapped. So the current level is level four, Australia's gonna drop it today. It is alleged to level three, which means reconsider your travel. But of course, it's just the movement back towards normality, and it's very important for the regions, very important for Qatar, very important for Emirates, etc. etc. So New Zealand hasn't done that yet. So one wonders whether if they are going to, uh, they will look to or follow Australia's lead today. The other thing is um Kyle Sandelins, if you followed this story, I'll expand on this more because I can't quite figure it out. Kyle Sandelins is the radio guy who got sacked r relatively recently. It's it's been the biggest media story in the history of Australian media stories. He was on a hundred million dollar deal, he was suing his company for eighty-eight. I thought he had a good case. But getting to court was going to be a problem in the sense that the pre-lim hearing the other day, they were setting it down for months away. And the wheels of justice are just a joke. Anyway, the story this morning is he's settled for 15 million. So if he was right and he believed he was owed 88, why is he taking 15? So anyway, more on that, and we'll maybe touch on it with Steve Price later on the program. Meantime, we need to get into this MB scandal that rocked us all yesterday. The details coming shortly for you.
