How deepfakes and AI are being used to find new ways to treat diseases

Drug discovery companies such as Insilico Medicine are using deepfake AI technology to design new molecules that can help treat diseases. Intel made a splash earlier this week when it unveiled its latest technology that can detect a deepfake in real-time with 96pc accuracy. AI such as this can help organisations around the world to prevent the spread of misinformation and protect themselves from cybercrime. But not all kinds of deepfakes are bad. The advancement of any emerging technology brings with it positive and negative uses – and the future of healthcare certainly has much to gain from deepfakes.
