A reality check on Artificial Intelligence: Are healthcare claims overblown? - MedCity News

#artificialintelligence

Health products powered by artificial intelligence, or AI, are streaming into our lives, from virtual doctor apps to wearable sensors and drugstore chatbots. IBM boasted that its AI could "outthink cancer." Others say computer systems that read X-rays will make radiologists obsolete. "There's nothing that I've seen in my 30-plus years studying medicine that could be as impactful and transformative" as AI, said Dr. Eric Topol, a cardiologist and executive vice president of Scripps Research in La Jolla, Calif. AI can help doctors interpret MRIs of the heart, CT scans of the head and photographs of the back of the eye, and could potentially take over many mundane medical chores, freeing doctors to spend more time talking to patients, Topol said. Even the Food and Drug Administration which has approved more than 40 AI products in the past five years says "the potential of digital health is nothing short of revolutionary."

Katie Gilsenan, senior trends analyst at GlobalWebIndex, writes about what we can expect in 2020 after publication of its report. Having an appointment with your doctor online will become as normal as making a payment on an app or booking a taxi through Uber. Because technologies like AI and telehealth, among others, are solving problems in healthcare. According to the World Health Organisation, global healthcare spending reached $7.5 trillion in 2016, representing 10% of global GDP. Growing and aging populations, as well as the increase in chronic diseases are among some of the top contributors to these statistics and as a result, hospitals and physicians are under immense strain.

Facebook bans 'deepfake' videos in run-up to US election

The Guardian

Facebook has announced a new policy banning AI-manipulated "deepfake" videos that are likely to mislead viewers into thinking someone "said words that they did not actually say," as the social network prepares for the 2020 US election. But the new policy explicitly covers only misinformation produced using AI, meaning that "shallow fakes" – videos made using conventional editing tools – though frequently just as misleading, are still allowed on the platform. The announcement made on Monday by Monika Bickert, Facebook's head of global policy management, sees the company removing misleading video from Facebook and Instagram if it meets two criteria: "It has been edited or synthesised … in ways that aren't apparent to an average person and would likely mislead someone into thinking that a subject of the video said words that they did not actually say." "It is the product of artificial intelligence or machine learning that merges, replaces or superimposes content onto a video, making it appear to be authentic." To date, there have been no major examples of content that would break such rules.


Sony unveils electric car equipped with autonomous driving tech

The Japan Times

LAS VEGAS – Sony Corp. has unveiled the first prototype of an electric vehicle equipped with autonomous driving technology under its new Vision-S initiative. The concept car, introduced Monday by Sony President and CEO Kenichiro Yoshida at a media preview ahead of the annual CES consumer electronics trade show in Las Vegas, comes loaded with more than 30 sensors both inside and outside the vehicle to improve object detection. Built to showcase Sony's advanced automotive technologies, it also comes embedded with onboard AI technology and high-quality speakers for an immersive audio experience. According to Sony, the vehicle will permit a certain degree of supplementary driving, such as auxiliary braking, as complete autonomous driving is difficult. It plans to test drive the prototype on roads by March 2021 but said there are currently no plans for commercial sales or mass production.
