Synopsis
The panel presented case studies on the application of AI for collecting and regulating data, along with utilising data to detect and prevent diseases. All participants emphasised that data is at the core of modern AI. In order for populations to engage in data sharing, trust must be fostered through the right governance models. AI will change the way we treat diseases, and will be able to assist doctors to make better, more evidence-based decisions and address healthcare worker shortages. By providing local community workers with AI diagnostic capabilities, developing countries can leapfrog healthcare deficits.
