A new AI-powered CPR coach, ChatCPR, has outperformed 911 dispatchers in guiding bystander resuscitation, according to a UC San Diego study. - Only 2% of Americans are certified to perform CPR, leaving many helpless during emergencies.
- ChatCPR provides real-time, step-by-step instructions via smartphone. - The AI was more effective than human dispatchers at guiding chest compressions and rescue breaths.
- The technology could save lives in San Diego County and beyond before emergency services arrive. This innovation addresses a critical gap in emergency response, potentially transforming how bystanders act during cardiac arrests.
