The Mexican president said they agreed AI can benefit healthcare; no partnership was announced.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum met OpenAI president and co-founder Greg Brockman and his team at the National Palace on 12 November to discuss uses of AI, especially in healthcare, Mexico News Daily reports. "We agreed that this technology can bring benefits to healthcare," Sheinbaum wrote on social media.
