The Saudi Ministry of Interior's General Department of Medical Services continues to deploy a state-of-the-art medical capsule for security personnel during this year's Hajj season, 1445 AH.
This innovative capsule utilizes artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced communication technologies to conduct comprehensive medical examinations within just six minutes, the Saudi Press agency reported on Thursday.
The capsule captures 26 key physiological measurements, including height, weight, body composition, vitals, and oxygen saturation.
Leveraging integrated AI, the capsule analyzes health data, facilitates remote consultations with doctors, and allows for medication registration. It reduces the need for hospital visits, offering a safe and private environment for on-site health screenings and consultations at workplaces across the Ministry of Interior and the Presidency of State Security.

Alphabet's Google said on Wednesday it has updated Gemini's AI image-creation model and would roll out the generation of visuals of people in the coming days, after months-long pause of the capability.

In February, Google had paused its AI tool that creates images of people, following inaccuracies in some historical depictions generated by the model.

The issues, where the AI model returned historical images which were sometimes inaccurate, drew flak from users.

The company said it has worked to improve the product, adhere to "product principles" and simulated situations to find weaknesses.

The feature will be made available first to paid users of the Gemini AI chatbot, starting in English and later roll out the model to bring more users and languages.

Google said it has improved the Imagen 3 model to create better images of people, but it would not generate images of specific people, children or graphic content.

OpenAI's Dall-E, Microsoft's CoPilot and recently xAI's Grok are among other AI chatbots that can now generate images.

The search engine giant also said over the coming days, subscribers to Gemini Advanced, Business and Enterprise would have access to chatting with "Gems" or chatbots customized for specific purposes.

Users can write specific instructions for particular purposes and create a Gem, saving them time from rewriting prompts for repetitive use cases.
