The limitations of artificial intelligence in cardiology

#artificialintelligence 

Artificial intelligence (#AI) seems to be all the rage these days, as it should be, given its potential to revolutionize medicine in many ways. Siri and Alexa use #AI too, so we can't easily escape it. Why would we want to? Of course, one concern about the algorithms is that they often are trained on ethnically homogenous datasets, potentially limiting their generalizability to the general population in the United States, and to others around the world. It is quite common for innovations in personalized medicine to be trained and validated in Caucasian populations, with the typical exclusion of minorities.
