It's kind of like saying, “Do we have good athletes?” but you don't have a playing field for them to play on. If you haven't made the health data available in an environment that's properly governed to do it, you foreclose on the potential. That's part of the reason we've seen erosion; we haven't created an environment.
The U.S. uses its hyperscalers. Other countries in Europe and Asia use state structures, and so on. We're just not in the game, or we give it away to foreign multinationals, and then we don't get the benefits.
There are good companies out there, and I think they would love to work with that data. We should do the exact same thing for defence, which we're not doing right now. We just foreclose on the game and take ourselves out of the high value-added, security-enhancing stuff.
