Opinion: Sanofi CEO Paul Hudson: The right way to bring AI into pharma
“AI has the potential to improve and reinvent the way pharma operates,” writes Paul Hudson.
While it’s widely accepted that the pharma industry is innovative in R&D, it is also true that it can be slow at embracing technological revolutions. Many people have criticized pharma companies for being slow to adopt AI. Indeed, some CEOs I talk to are concerned about too widely adopting AI, citing fears of unknown threats.
But as the CEO of Sanofi, I don’t believe those challenges should guide our thinking or adoption of AI in the pharma business, as AI has the potential to improve and reinvent the way our business operates. AI impacts the way we exchange information by connecting different business units and functions that may have been operating independently in real time. The exchange of data in real time greatly accelerates and enhances the business operations.
