It has been argued that AI poses an existential threat to humanity,never more so than in today’s Healthtech sector with the advent of generative AI and LLMs. Instead of viewing AI as a threat, let’s explore at Intelligent Health in Basel how AI can empower and enhance the invaluable work that all those in this sector do.

AI can certainly alleviate some of the ‘heavy-lifting in these roles by streamlining time-intensive administrative tasks and freeing professionals to carry out the personalised care that can only be achieved by possessing the level of emotional intelligence and empathy required to make nuanced decisions and consider the holistic well-being of patients.

AI can certainly alleviate some of the ‘heavy-lifting in these roles by streamlining time-intensive administrative tasks and freeing professionals to carry out the personalised care that can only be achieved by possessing the level of emotional intelligence and empathy required to make nuanced decisions and consider the holistic well-being of patients.

But AI does have its limitations, as least for now. 
 

 “I think that for some time forward, we’re going to continue to need to have humans in the loop because the AI is far from perfect,” said Erik Brynjolfsson, Director of the Digital Economy Lab at Stanford University’s Institute for Human Centered AI. “It can’t do a lot of things.” 

  

It is important to recognize that AI is not currently widely used in clinical or decision-making settings due to its newness and potential for errors. This means that there is no immediate threat to the well-being of patients. However, it is equally important to remain open-minded and informed about the possibilities AI offers for advancing healthcare.

We value your perspective and invite you to share your thoughts on the role of AI in healthcare. 

 

  • Do you think that AI models are unlikely to repalce human workers in healthcare anytime soon?
  • Do the benefits of AI outweigh its risks or do you see it as a threat to the medical profession?

 

We encourage you to email us with your thoughts at hello@intelligenthealth.ai on the above, or better yet – join us at Intelligent Health this September, where we are bringing together clinicians and industry experts to engage in constructive conversations about the future of healthcare. 

 

Together, we can shape a future where AI and human expertise collaborate to revolutionize patient care, improve outcomes, and empower healthcare professionals like never before. 

 

Looking forward to hearing your insights!
