The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative founded by Mark Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan in 2015 is going to buy Meta. Meta is a startup operating in the field of artificial intelligence and related data analytic technology in the healthcare industry. Natural language processing and machine learning should help to sieve millions of scientific and technology papers and identify which papers should be most important to health-care professionals such as doctors. Joining the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative helps Meta to work with academics and researchers which was not that easy as a startup before.
