Lord Holmes: AI has the potential to transform the NHS

Artificial intelligence (AI), already affecting us in ways we may not currently even be aware of, will completely transform our lives in the next 25 years. One of the areas in which this transformation has the potential to be most significant is in healthcare. In the UK, our crowning glory is the National Health Service. The principle of universal healthcare free at the point of need is, rightly, a point of national pride. I'm still moved by the memory of Danny Boyle's tribute to the NHS in the 2012 Olympic opening ceremony.
