Machine learning and AI in medicine – Part 1

For years relegated to science fiction, as exemplified when the HAL 9000 had a speaking role in 2001: A Space Odyssey, artificial intelligence (AI) now has become practical reality and in medicine, a long-hoped-for remedy in areas from pathology to electronic medical records. Yet, artificial intelligence, which encompasses machine learning and other functions, has limitations. In this episode, learn about the current state of artificial intelligence and what it can realistically achieve for your practice.
