Midjourney is working on an full-body ultrasonic scanner

One of the popular ideas related to artificial intelligence is that it'll pave the way for vastly cheaper, advanced medical exams. A movie version of this is the home MRI-like machine, with the protagonist stepping inside it and getting a full body scan and an assessment within minutes (remember the healing med-bay in Elysium?). Now, Midjourney, the company known primarily for its powerful AI image generation tech, is trying to turn that dream into reality with a new project: a full body, ultrasonic scanner. Yes, we're talking an actual, full size, medical scanner, and it's so far removed from what Midjourney did so far, that in an introductory blog post, the company itself admitted the project is "a little weird and a little crazy, but also spectacular and filled with hope."
