Artificial intelligence can help doctors diagnose life-threatening diseases: Here are five examples - Firstpost

Case in point: recently, a team of researchers at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) developed an AI model that was better at differentiating between "preinvasive lesions of the breast" -- abnormal growths in breast cells -- than doctors with years of experience. They published their findings in the JAMA Network Open, a science journal, on 9 August. Machine learning is the capacity of a machine to learn from its mistakes, just like people do. Machines are also able to compute and assess different scenarios much faster, and more accurately than people. Incorrect breast cancer diagnoses are still quite common, leading to anxiety and depression in women.
