I've seen this. But it is not even close to our(Google/Government/Facebook/"AI") potential.
I was thinking more along the lines: once somewhere in hospital some patient is diagnosed with COVID-19 - I get a notification on my phone: "Hey you potentially contacted confirmed case on {date} for {#} minutes being within {#} meters" Please monitor your condition and try to self-isolate. Probability of you having the virus is x%"
AI here should optimise criteria for people to notify based on probability of getting the virus.
I'm sure there will be a lot of research in current situation and in years to come. But there should be some level of such intelligence available in the system by default. And our default in real world currently is very low, compared to the marketing materials of AI companies.
I'm sure we are doing the best we can BTW, just wish it would be more
UPDATE: I'm not from Google while previous version implied that.
