The global Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare market size was valued at USD 19.54 billion in 2023. The market is projected to grow from USD 27.69 billion in 2024 to USD 490.96 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) of 43.2% during the forecast period ( source ). The uses of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine have been growing in many areas, including in the analysis of medical images, (1) the detection of drug interactions, (2) the identification of high-risk patients, (3) and the coding of medical notes. (4) Several such uses of AI are the topics of the “AI in Medicine” review article series that debuts in this issue of the Journal. Here we describe another type of AI, the medical AI chatbot. AI Chatbot Technology A chatbot consists of two main components: a general-purpose AI system and a chat interface. This article considers specifically an AI system called GPT-4 (Generative Pretrained Transformer 4) with a chat interface; this system is wid...

Artificial intelligence (AI) is making headlines, and the reviews are mixed. Though the United States leads the world in AI investment, Americans remain skeptical. According to a global survey ( pdf ) by Ipsos, “Only 35 percent of sampled Americans agreed that products and services using AI had more benefits than drawbacks.” Among surveyed countries, the United States had one of the lowest percentages of those who agreed with the statement. Private industry has edged out academia in producing state-of-the-art AI systems; at the same time, the number of incidents of  ethical misuse of AI  has increased dramatically—from 10 in 2012 to more than 250 in 2021. The field is growing in what could be called a “Wild West” of AI. According to Stanford University’s  AI Index Report , “AI has moved into its era of deployment; throughout 2022 and the beginning of 2023, new large-scale AI models have been released every month.” These models include Stable Diffusion, Whisper, DALL-E 2, ...

Better diagnoses. Personalised support for patients. Faster drug discovery. Greater efficiency. Artificial intelligence (ai) is generating excitement and hyperbole everywhere, but in the field of health care it has the potential to be transformational. In Europe analysts predict that deploying ai could save hundreds of thousands of lives each year; in America, they say, it could also save money, shaving $200bn-360bn from overall annual medical spending, now $4.5trn a year (or 17% of gdp). From smart stethoscopes and robot surgeons to the analysis of large data sets or the ability to chat to a medical ai with a human face, opportunities abound. There is already evidence that AI systems can enhance diagnostic accuracy and disease tracking, improve the prediction of patients’ outcomes and suggest better treatments. It can also boost efficiency in hospitals and surgeries by taking on tasks such as medical transcription and monitoring patients, and by streamlining administration. It may al...

The Australian Medical Association (AMA) is calling for stronger regulations and transparency around the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the healthcare industry after doctors in Perth were ordered to cease using ChatGPT to write patient medical notes. In a submission ( pdf ) to the federal government on July 25, the AMA said that Australia is behind countries, such as Canada, the United Kingdom, and the European Union, in AI regulations and that rules need to be put in place to protect the privacy and safety of patients and healthcare professionals. “We need to address the AI regulation gap in Australia, but especially in healthcare where there is the potential for patient injury from system errors, systemic bias embedded in algorithms and increased risk to patient privacy,” AMA President Professor Steve Robson said in a  statement  on July 27. “AI is a rapidly evolving field with varying degrees of understanding among clinicians, other health care professionals, admini...
