On April 23, 2025, President Donald Trump signed an executive order titled “Advancing Artificial Intelligence Education for American Youth.” The initiative is designed to bring artificial intelligence (AI) education into K–12 classrooms across the U.S., aiming to prepare students for a future where AI is foundational to economic and social systems. “This is a big deal,” said President Trump during the signing, signaling the strategic importance of AI literacy for America’s youth.
White House Task Force on AI Education
A centerpiece of the executive order is the formation of the White House Task Force on Artificial Intelligence Education. Led by Michael Kratsios, Director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy, the task force includes Education Secretary Linda McMahon and Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer. Their goals: align federal efforts, produce AI learning resources, and build public-private partnerships to accelerate AI’s integration in education.
AI in the Classroom and Beyond
To encourage engagement, the executive order introduces the Presidential Artificial Intelligence Challenge—a national competition to highlight student and educator innovation in AI. This is part of a broader effort to connect government, academia, and industry in leveraging AI to solve national challenges.
Federal agencies are also directed to prioritize funding for AI educational tools, including online platforms for K–12 learners. Within 180 days, agencies must deploy ready-to-use classroom materials. Simultaneously, educator training will be prioritized. Within 120 days, the Department of Education is expected to revamp discretionary grants to support teacher training in AI—covering both instructional integration and productivity tools like AI-assisted evaluation and admin reduction.
The National Science Foundation and the Department of Agriculture are tasked with supporting research and professional development to help educators adopt AI in meaningful ways.
Preparing the Workforce
In addition to classroom reform, the executive order addresses workforce development. It promotes AI-related registered apprenticeships and encourages the use of Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) funds to support AI-focused training. High school dual enrollment programs will also be expanded to allow students to earn postsecondary or industry-recognized AI credentials alongside their diplomas.
Can Higher Education Keep Up?
I built my first HeathKit H8 computer before my high school even had a computer lab—and I remember knowing more than the teacher once the machines arrived. But AI is a whole different story. Today’s students will be AI natives by the time they enter college. Can higher education keep pace with this exponential technological curve?
The pace of AI development may be 2–3 times faster than Moore’s Law. This is a seismic shift, and higher education must adapt or risk becoming obsolete.
Is AI a Fad or a Bubble?
Not even close. I’ve been immersed in AI since the early days of algorithms and expert systems. Our company holds patents in the healthcare-AI space. And yet, I’m still struck by how many people—smart, capable professionals—still don’t grasp the impact AI will have on their industries, even those considered “unautomatable.”
A few posts ago, we referenced Bill Gates’ comments on AI’s impact on education and medicine. This time, we turn to former Google CEO Dr. Eric Schmidt, who spoke at the Special Competitive Studies Project “AI + Biotechnology” conference. His perspective? “AI is underhyped, not overhyped.”
Key moments from Schmidt’s remarks worth revisiting:
-
30:52 – Special section on AI and biotechnology
-
38:27 – AI tools used to contest insurance claim denials
-
40:32 / 46:00 – Importance of data authenticity in biotech: “We don’t have enough data”
This aligns closely with our view: AI will revolutionize healthcare—and sooner than many expect.
The Economic Value of AI in Healthcare
AI has the potential to radically reshape the economics of healthcare. A 2023 National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) study projected that AI adoption could save 5–10% of U.S. healthcare spending—amounting to $250 to $500 billion annually. These savings come from AI-enabled efficiencies in diagnostics, treatment planning, and administrative overhead.
We believe the potential savings could be even greater—possibly double. And these aren’t just financial benefits. AI also promises improvements in care quality and patient experience.
Empowering Consumers With Their Health Data
As Dr. Schmidt noted, “People don’t understand what it will be to have all this information effectively for free.” That’s where we come in.
Our company’s mission is to empower consumers with both their health data and the interpretative AI needed to make sense of it. Our three key goals:
-
Improve health outcomes
-
Enhance quality of life
-
Reduce costs—especially duplicated diagnostics and office visits
AI can make healthcare faster, better, and more affordable—not just for providers, but for the end user: the consumer.
The Consumer at the Center of Healthcare
Imagine a healthcare system where the consumer sits at the top. In a $5.3 trillion system, this means patients can interact with their providers more effectively, come to appointments better informed, and become partners—not just recipients—in their care.
This shift won’t just benefit individual patients—it can also ease pressure on a strained system and contribute to better outcomes across the board.
We’re just getting started. And if we move fast and thoughtfully, AI will do for healthcare what the internet did for information—unlock it, democratize it, and improve lives at scale.
About HealthScoreAI ™
Healthcare is at a tipping point, and HealthScoreAI is positioning to revolutionize the industry by giving consumers control over their health data and unlocking its immense value. U.S. healthcare annual spending has exceeded $5 trillion with little improvement in outcomes. Despite advances, technology has failed to reduce costs or improve care. Meanwhile, 3,000 exabytes of consumer health data remain trapped in fragmented USA systems of 500 EHRs, leaving consumers and doctors without a complete picture of care.
HealthScoreAI seeks to provide a unique solution, acting as a data surrogate for consumers and offering an unbiased holistic view of their health. Giving Consumers tools to respond to denial of care by insurers, we aim to bridge gaps in healthcare access and outcomes. By monetizing de-identified data, HealthScoreAI seeks to share revenue with consumers, potentially creating a new $100 billion market value opportunity. With near-universal EHR adoption in the USA, and advances in technology, now is the perfect time to capitalize on the data available, practical use of AI and the empowering of consumers, in particular the 13,000 tech savvy baby boomers turning 65 every single day and entering the Medicare system for the first time. Our team, with deep healthcare and tech expertise, holds U.S. patents and a proven track record of scaling companies and leading them to IPO.
