Best Life: AI technology could prevent dementia

St. Louis, Mo. (Ivanhoe Newswire) -- Artificial intelligence, or AI, allows machines to work more efficiently and solve problems faster. AI is all the buzz in the healthcare industry right now. And now, AI may also help to prevent some diseases. The same technology used in self-driving cars, smart assistants and disease mapping may also help to solve one of health care's biggest problems--how to stave off dementia. "What we're trying to do is intervene at that point when it starts to sharply decline to bring those skills back up," shared Adam Woods, PhD, University of Florida Center for Cognitive Aging and Memory.
