# AMIE, our research medical AI system, demonstrates real-time clinical video consultation capabilities in a first-of-its-kind study. Source: [https://blog.google/innovation-and-ai/models-and-research/google-research/amie-video-consultations/](https://blog.google/innovation-and-ai/models-and-research/google-research/amie-video-consultations/) When you visit a doctor, a consultation extends far beyond words — a physician notices a cough, observes gait, or registers visible signs of discomfort\. Today, Google Research and Google DeepMind are advancing AMIE, our research medical AI system, toward real\-time clinical video consultations, with a first\-of\-its\-kind demonstration of expert\-level AI capabilities in this setting\. Built on Gemini and Project Astra using a multi\-agent architecture, AMIE now interprets visual and auditory cues, guides virtual physical exams, and reasons diagnostically in real time\. In a randomized study using simulated consultations with patient actors and a group of primary care physicians, clinical evaluators assessed AMIE favorably across core clinical competencies, including history\-taking thoroughness, diagnostic accuracy, management appropriateness and communication quality\. Patient actors also preferred the video experience over text chat\. AMIE remains a research system and more research is needed before responsible real\-world clinical deployment, but it offers an exciting glimpse into the future of health AI\.
