AI Health Studio co-founder addresses controversy over MediSafe app, which he says was entered into academic contests without firm’s consent
A US-based software development agency has said it was commissioned by the mother of a Hong Kong student to build from scratch a medication prescription app that was later submitted to academic competitions under the pupil’s name without its consent.
Ahmed Jemaa, co-founder of US-based AI Health Studio, said the company was not told that the MediSafe app it created would be submitted to the contests and argued the move was unfair to other student participants.
He also accused the mother of attempting to “control the narrative” after controversy broke out in June over whether her daughter was the sole inventor of the award-winning project.
