FDA’s easing oversight on low-risk AI health features in wearables—meaning brands can push updates faster, but now you’re trusting their validation instead of government review.
Marty’s Take:
This deregulation is a brand integrity test. When Garmin Fenix 8 Pro or Apple Watch Ultra 2 gets a new HRV or ECG algorithm pushed silently, their internal QA teams now bear the full weight — no government backstop. The risk isn’t there; it’s at the budget end, where QA pipelines are thin and shortcuts are cheaper. Our best fitness tracker picks are brands that earned trust before this shortcut existed.
