The rapid evolution of AI technology has significantly disrupted various industries, especially healthcare.
What Are the Prevalent Uses of AI in Healthcare?
AI's exceptional pattern recognition and data analysis capabilities have revolutionised imaging, especially in early cancer detection by analysing vast datasets. It also automates administrative tasks, saving time for other activities. In medicine, AI serves as a second observer, aiding in accurate diagnoses and enabling less invasive surgeries, thus reducing infection risks. Additionally, AI enhances training through diverse, realistic simulations tailored to trainees' needs.

What Concerns Surround the Use of AI in Healthcare?
Concerns about the potential for bias, discrimination in data sets and statistical inaccuracy are common among medical professionals. Therefore, whilst AI is beginning to shape the future of healthcare, a hybrid-human AI model still yields the best results at present.
