A new Partnership between Humans and Machines in Healthcare

During the last few months we have been witnessing a rapid change in the development of artificial intelligence. Nearly on a monthly basis, research that documents how algorithms are over-performing on humans, have been published. With the current pace of advancements in AI one can easily assume that in 10 years from now algorithms will over-perform humans on 80% of today's classified diagnosis. Ten years ago the iPhone got introduced which led to the development of 180.000 registered health apps, which equals 50 apps a day. Yes, a large part of them aren't useful, but we can't ignore the impact apps had on patients and clinicians.
