AI & ML in Medicine: Not job stealers but life savers - ET HealthWorld

By Dr. Rasmi Misra "Some people call this artificial intelligence, but the reality is this technology will enhance us. So instead of artificial intelligence, I think we'll augment our intelligence." This has led to a widespread belief that introducing AI driven systems could help in lowering these costs and also make remote patient monitoring more efficient. With the advanced use of AI & ML in medicine, the ability to form relationships with patients, which was once touted as a cornerstone in the human element in treatment, is now being portrayed as its Achilles' heel. While the fear that AI & ML may make doctors obsolete is not completely unfounded, the belief that it would replace doctors and steal their jobs is slightly presumptuous.
