UCSF rsearch collaborators, funded by Facebook, have been able to successfully develop a “speech neuroprosthesis”, which allows a man with severe speech loss to communicate in full sentences in real-time, by converting signals from the motor cortex in his brain to the vocal tract, directly into text on a screen.
When one is in a hospital, they may hear many appreciative remarks, such as “Thank you, Doctor” or “Thank you, Nurse”, & sometimes expressions of gratitude for the technology available. Although there is a substantial amount of appreciation for medical equipment such as MRI scanners, adjustable hospital beds & surgical robots, we often do not realize the formidable software behind all these workings. Processing, acquiring & storing our data safely, accurately & efficiently… is what NVIDIA Clara excels at.
OpenAI’s powerful text-generating GPT-3 system to power chatbots to offer medical advice and help has gone horribly wrong as a mock patient is told to kill themselves.
AI is now able to diagnose genetic disorders just by examining an individual’s face.
The rise of dangerous military AI is ever growing and a government-appointed panel in the United States has said in a draft report to Congress that it is America’s “moral imperative” to keep pursuing the development of AI-powered weaponry. This article will explore both the technological and ethical arguments to this dilemma. Intrigued? Read on to find out….
With the advent of artificial intelligence, “big data”, and machine learning, we are moving toward the rapid expansion of the use of these tools in the daily life of physicians, making each patient unique, as well as leading radiology toward the concept of a multidisciplinary approach and precision medicine. In this article, we will present the main aspects of the computational tools currently available for analysis of images and the principles of such analysis, together with the main terms and concepts involved, as well as examining the impact that the development of artificial intelligence has had on radiology and diagnostic imaging in mammography.
