Artificial Intelligence: Medical Applications and the Future Impacts
Dr James Paul Pandarakalam
Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) is currently being used to enable faster disease detection, enable better understanding of disease progression, enhance medication dosages, and discover pioneering treatments. We have only scratched the surface of AI, but under any circumstances, it would be impossible for AI to acquire the talent of creativity which is a unique human characteristic. AI poses real life and hypothetical risks. Many AI and robotics researchers have aired alarms about the way advances in AI, paired with autonomous systems, could create new and dangerous weapon systems that will menace global stability. AI might revolutionise areas like medicine and agriculture, but it also poses great risks to business and society as a whole. This paper is an attempt to evaluate the positive and negative impacts of AI. Improving the quality of life and prolonging life are responsibilities of the medical profession and any interference to this obligation, the caring profession has to take seriously.
