Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing healthcare in ways previously unimaginable. From diagnostics and treatment to personalized medicine and administrative tasks, AI is reshaping every facet of the healthcare ecosystem. As the healthcare industry grapples with challenges such as rising costs, aging populations and a growing demand for quality care, AI offers a beacon of hope, promising improved outcomes, increased efficiency and enhanced patient experiences. This interesting subject came to us from Fast Company in their article, “Promises and pitfalls of artificial intelligence in healthcare.”
The integration of AI into healthcare represents a paradigm shift with far-reaching implications for patient care, public health and the healthcare industry as a whole. By harnessing the power of AI-driven technologies, healthcare providers can enhance diagnostic accuracy, personalize treatment strategies, improve patient experiences and optimize healthcare delivery. As AI continues to evolve and mature, its impact on healthcare is poised to catalyze transformative changes that will revolutionize the way we prevent, diagnose and treat diseases, ultimately leading to a healthier and more resilient society.
The biggest challenge is that most organizations have little knowledge on how AI systems make decisions and how to interpret AI and machine learning results. Explainable AI allows users to comprehend and trust the results and output created by machine learning algorithms. Explainable AI is used to describe an AI model, its expected impact, and it potential biases. Why is this important? Because explainability becomes critical when the results can have an impact on data security or safety.
