Kennedy Jr., current HHS Secretary, called for a sweeping integration of Americans’ health data—like clinic visits, prescriptions, and exercise habits—using artificial intelligence to analyze and share the information. Speaking at a Make America Healthy Again event, he pushed for breaking down state and agency data silos and claimed AI could help Americans scrutinize medical advice on topics from vaccines to public health. Critics note Kennedy’s anti-vaccine history and that he claims AI can challenge medical consensus.
