Flo Health boosts AI safety and usefulness with Databricks fine-tuning

Flo Health has developed a novel approach to fine-tuning open-source AI models for enhanced medical safety and usefulness, leveraging Databricks AI Runtime. By creating a specialized evaluation framework and using AI judges with privacy-first synthetic data, Flo improved its AI's medical safety from 34% to 61% and usefulness from 42% to 76%. This method allows Flo to maintain control over model behavior and reduce inference costs compared to using frontier model APIs, which is crucial for its 81 million monthly active users. AI

IMPACT Enhances AI model safety and usefulness for health applications, potentially reducing inference costs for large user bases.
