September: AI Is Changing Industries And Society - Connected World

The impact on healthcare will be similarly huge. "Healthcare will be personalized and people will be advised in detail as to how to look after themselves," Davies adds. "AI doctors will be able to diagnose, prescribe, and treat common conditions without consulting a human physician. Already, AI is monitoring glucose levels and suggesting doses of medication to diabetic patients with insulin pumps, and AI tests for other types of illnesses that are coming online. Also, in the very near future, AI will be common in health centers to improve the diagnosis of MRIs, mammograms, x-rays, (and) cancers." Whit Andrews, vice president and distinguished analyst at Gartner, says automation is changing industries by allowing organizations to increase the scale of what they can accomplish.
