Review on Artificial Intelligence and Applications in Healthcare

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is going to make huge difference in our day to day lives. AI is influencing the way we live and how we
interact with the world, and there is much more to come in the years to follow with more advancement. As AI becomes more
deeply integrated into our lives, it will become the new infrastructure powering a second industrial revolution. Bridging the link
between current nano-sciences and AI, it can boost research in various disciplines and provide a new generation of information
and communication technologies that shows a large impact in our society, probably providing the means so that technology and
biology merge. Major changes in the education curriculum of medical professionals need to take place. But the rising cost of
healthcare may prove to be an independent driving force to develop these technologies; meanwhile health information technology
not only improves the quality of care, but also reduces its cost significantly. AI has the potentiality to reduce the cost of healthcare
markedly and in future, this may translate into creation of promotional policies to accelerate investment in AI by rewarding the
hospitals and the physicians who incorporates it into their workflow. While a terminator-like scenario is unlikely any time soon,
the progression of artificial intelligence techniques and its applications will certainly be very exciting.
