100-word summary
Microsoft just launched Copilot Health, a walled-off AI that combines your health records, wearable stats, and medical history into one profile, then translates the mess into plain English insights. Think pre-appointment prep where you actually remember your symptoms, or finding a specialist without Googling for an hour. It won't diagnose you (lawyers made sure of that), and your health chats stay isolated from regular Copilot. The service taps Harvard Health content and advice from 230 physicians across 24 countries. English-only in the U.S. for now, starting with a waitlist. After years of AI hype in healthcare, someone finally built the patient-facing tool everyone assumed already existed.
