Medicine and the rise of the robots: a qualitative review of recent advances of artificial intelligence in health

Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to significantly transform the role of the doctor and revolutionise the practice of medicine. This qualitative review paper summarises the past 12 months of health research in AI, across different medical specialties, and discusses the current strengths as well as challenges, relating to this emerging technology. Doctors, especially those in leadership roles, need to be aware of how quickly AI is advancing in health, so that they are ready to lead the change requi… Show more

“…Unfortunately, attempts to implement Watson in US hospitals fell massively short of expectations. There were reports of its recommendations providing no additional insight compared with those of the involved human doctors, and sometimes even including concerning inaccuracies (Loh, 2018).

“…At the same time, the field of robotics continues growing and providing not only physical but also virtual experiences. Both AI and robotics are applied in fields such as medicine (Buchlak et al, 2019;Loh, 2018), marketing (Jarek & Mazurek, 2019), finance (Lee, 2020) and entertainment (Meena, Jingar & Gupta, 2020). However, the field of education needs to keep pace with this changing context.…”
