Lynn DaviesCORRESPONDENT
So coming back to rehab and AI, how do you find or have you found that the way AI is included in so many products and how many people using it is changing the way rehab is from what it used to be only a few years ago prior to all these products existing?

Richard PowellGUEST
I think the biggest change or the biggest single change is the wider use of large language models, which is obviously a particular form of AI.

Richard PowellGUEST
Because years ago, when he talked to Alexa, he had to give it specific commands or specific, you know, if you asked a question, it had to be asked in a specific way or a number of specific ways.

Richard PowellGUEST
And I think as a result of that, it's just completely transformed the landscape.
