We get to know about health issues, symptoms, possible causes and treatments as well from the search engine.
And now it appears the concept of Google as our health adviser is getting a serious upgrade with artificial intelligence coming into the forefront.
While taking health advice from Google is often considered inappropriate or quack, Google itself is now working on an AI model that will help detect any signs of diseases.
It is a bioacoustic foundation model that may help improve health outcomes for people across India.
Google has announced the AI model is named “HeAR,” an acronym for Health Acoustic Representations, in one of its recent blogs.
While announcing the new development, Google outlines the importance of sound and speech in diagnosis.

Our bodies make different sounds from cough to speech and even breath that can help detect maltitude of information about our health condition.
As per Google, one of the conditions that can be detected with the help of body sounds is tuberculosis (TB) or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
“Earlier this year, we introduced Health Acoustic Representations, or HeAR, a bioacoustic foundation model designed to help researchers build models that can listen to human sounds and flag early signs of disease. The Google Research team trained HeAR on 300 million pieces of audio data curated from a diverse and de-identified dataset, and we trained the cough model, in particular, using roughly 100 million cough sounds,” Google mentioned in the blog,
To bring this vision closer to reality, Google has partnered with India’s Salcit Technologies, a respiratory healthcare company known for its AI bioacoustic model called Swaasa.

Swaasa uses the sound of a patient’s cough to assess lung health and is currently being refined to improve the early detection of tuberculosis.
However, convincing doctors to trust and adopt technology like HeAR for diagnosis could be challenging.
Yet, having the backing of reputable organizations, such as the United Nations StopTB Partnership, lends credibility to HeAR’s potential.
In the near future, you might find yourself being diagnosed and treated by Google, all through the power of your smartphone.
“Solutions like HeAR will enable AI-powered acoustic analysis to break new ground in tuberculosis screening and detection, offering a potentially low-impact, accessible tool to those who need it most,” said Zhi Zhen Qin, digital health specialist with the Stop TB Partnership.
“Every missed case of tuberculosis is a tragedy; every late diagnosis, a heartbreak,” says Sujay Kakarmath, a product manager at Google Research working on HeAR. “Acoustic biomarkers offer the potential to rewrite this narrative. I am deeply grateful for the role HeAR can play in this transformative journey.” We’re also seeing support for this approach from organizations including The StopTB Partnership, a United Nations-hosted organization that brings together TB experts and affected communities with the goal of ending TB by 2030.
FAQs
Q1. What is Google’s new AI model HeAR designed to do?
Answer. Google’s AI model HeAR (Health Acoustic Representations) is designed to detect signs of diseases using bioacoustic data, such as sounds from coughs and breaths.
Q2. What health conditions can HeAR help detect?
Answer. HeAR can help detect conditions like tuberculosis (TB) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) by analyzing body sounds.
Q3. How was the HeAR model trained?
Answer. The HeAR model was trained on 300 million audio samples, including 100 million cough sounds, to identify health-related patterns.
Apple has conducted four rounds of layoffs in the past eight months.
The company recently laid off 100 employees from its services division in Apple Books and Apple News.
Despite the layoffs, the company continues to retain senior employees to maintain shareholder confidence.
Reports of layoffs and downsizing are common in today’s economy.
We often hear stories of tech giants laying off hundreds and thousands of employees in one quarter.
Almost every big tech firm has been in the headlines in the past for such stories, be it Microsoft, Google or Meta.
This year, however, Apple is leading this front.
The company in the past eight months have had four rounds of job cuts.
While the number on paper might not be as big as some other layoff figures we have heard, for a company like Apple that has maintained a long tradition of retentions, this is huge.
According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple has recently laid off around 100 employees from its services division.
The layoffs mainly affected teams from Apple Books and Apple News.
Gurman mentions, “This past Tuesday, Apple told employees in its services division that it’s eliminating about 100 jobs, including engineering roles and software testing positions.”
However, what grabs attention is that despite these cuts, CEO Tim Cook has continued a longstanding practice of retaining senior employees.
Apple often retains senior staff on the payroll even when they contribute little to daily operations.
The strategy admittedly is aimed at maintaining shareholder confidence.
Apple has conducted four rounds of layoffs in the past eight months.
The practice of keeping senior staff on payroll began after Steve Jobs’ passing.
Later Cook persuaded key figures like Bob Mansfield and Jony Ive to stay with the company, even after they let go of key roles.
While Maestri is stepping down from his position in 2025, he will remain at Apple to provide counsel.
Previously this year, Apple laid off the people working on the Apple Car project, the micro-LED project and the employees who refused to relocate.
Apple also had to let go of its retail employees earlier this year.
These layoffs are seen as a shift in Apple’s priorities, with the company focusing on new ventures like XR (Extended Reality) with Apple Vision Pro and Apple Intelligence.
However, the contrast between retaining underutilised senior employees just to keep shareholder confidence while laying off productivestaff has raised concerns about the company’s strategy.

A federal judge blocks parts of the Texas SCOPE Act.
The law aims to increase social media monitoring and filtering to protect teenagers.
The judge ruled that these requirements threatened free speech and issued an injunction.
However, some provisions like age verification for adult content remain in effect.
The discourse around social media censorship or internet censorship has reached the highest of courts in different countries.
As of now, we have seen rulings in such cases mostly against big tech companies.
However, a recent federal order on a Texus law has put the question of social media censorship into a different perspective.
The federal judge has put a last-minute partial block on a Texus Act, which demanded that social media companies strengthen their “monitoring and filtering” of the platform in order to limit its access for teenagers.

A federal court ruling clarified in its order that social media companies cannot be forced to block certain content from teenagers under a new Texas law.
The court viewed the Texus Act as an infringement of free speech.
The law, known as the Securing Children Online Through Parental Empowerment (SCOPE) Act, was set to take effect on September 1st.
The law requires a range of web services particularly big social media platforms to verify users’ ages and restrict data collection from minors.
It also demanded that social media companies block harmful content like substance abuse and grooming.
However, Judge Robert Pitman ruled that these requirements threaten free speech and issued an injunction against them while the case continues.
The order didn’t block the entire law as some provisions, which include the age verification for adult content will continue to remain in effect.

The ruling came after tech industry groups NetChoice, the CCIA, and the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE) challenged the law.
The group argued that such a law could lead to selective enforcement and vague restrictions.
“Terms like ‘promoting,’ ‘glorifying,’ ‘substance abuse,’ ‘harassment,’ and ‘grooming’ are undefined, despite their potential wide breadth and politically charged nature.
At what point, for example, does alcohol use become ‘substance abuse?’
When does an extreme diet cross the line into an ‘eating disorder?”
Judge Robert Pitman noted in his ruling.
Judge Pitman highlighted concerns about the potential for censorship, noting that controversial content might be removed from social media while remaining accessible on other platforms.
The case is ongoing and further rulings could impact the law’s future enforcement.
