Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the ability of machines, especially computers, to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence. These tasks include things like understanding language, recognising patterns, solving problems, and making decisions.
AI can be classified into two types: Artificial Narrow Intelligence (ANI) also known as weak AI and Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) also referred to as strong AI. ANI is designed for specific tasks and excels within a narrow domain. ANI systems are highly specialised and cannot transfer their expertise to unrelated tasks. AGI aims to replicate human cognitive abilities, enabling it to perform any intellectual task a human can do. It would be capable of autonomous learning and problem-solving without requiring task-specific programming.
AI-driven solutions:
1.Disease Diagnosis and Detection.
2.Drug Discovery and Development.
3.Predictive Analytics and Risk Assessment.
4.Precision medicine.
5.Health Monitoring and Wearables.
6.Robotics and Automation.
7.Traditional Medicine.
Overall, AI’s integration into healthcare systems not only boosts efficiency and reduces costs but also significantly improves patient outcomes, contributing to a more robust and responsive global healthcare system.
