## Summary

Dr. Adel Laoui, Founder and CEO of NeuTigers, explains how his company applies edge AI to medical devices for early disease detection, citing personal motivations from losing family members to cancer and heart attacks. He details the development of 'COVID Deep,' a tool that uses smartwatch sensors and deep learning models to classify COVID-19 severity, which is currently under FDA review. Laoui also discusses the company's cybersecurity platform, Shark, which uses AI to predict zero-day attacks on IoT devices, and highlights the growing potential of edge AI in industrial monitoring and aerospace.
