Herb-Paths specialises in discovering, analysing, and predicting the health benefits of herbs and herbal compounds. While generative AI models like ChatGPT excel at conversation, text generation, and media creation, they lack the capability to actively compute and predict connections between herbs and their health effects. Herb-Paths goes beyond a simple chat tool, offering data-driven insights for the discovery of novel herbal health products.
