What happens when a blood test shows circulating cancer DNA—but no doctor can find the tumor? Or when a child spends five years being tested, hospitalized, and medicated for a condition that could have been diagnosed in days?

Pete Martinez has spent 12 years building AI systems that help geneticists and doctors find answers faster. His platform has already helped 162,000 patients get more accurate diagnoses, including rare cancers that would otherwise take years to identify.

In this conversation, Pete breaks down the four critical points where AI is transforming cancer care—from predisposition screening to personalized treatment. He shares the story of a little girl who endured years of biopsies and hospital stays for an “autoimmune liver disease” that was actually solved by changing her diet. And he explains why you should walk away from any doctor who dismisses your request for genetic testing.

If you’ve ever wondered whether AI could help you get answers faster—or felt dismissed when asking for more comprehensive testing—this episode delivers the knowledge you need to advocate for yourself.
