在过去的20到30年里,我们收集了大量的数据,随着计算机处理能力的提高,我们可以比几年前更快地分析更大量的数据。正如将要讨论的那样,在人工智能(AI)和机器学习(ML)中,算法被应用于数据,然后可以通过复杂的过程预测未来的结果。人工智能具有巨大的潜力,可以帮助我们在医学方面,特别是在访问和处理大量数据以解决健康危机时。AI已经在临床诊断、癌症检测和机器人手术方面产生了重大影响。作为临床医生,医生和医疗保健专业人员必须更好地了解这项技术的科学和应用。这将使我们能够在指导发展道路方面发挥作用,在道德上考虑到人类,特别是我们的患者的未来福祉和权利。作为医生,我们有责任去学习、理解、影响和确保我们的病人有一个安全的未来。
BACKGROUNDVast amounts of data have been collected over the past 20 to 30 years, and with increased computer processing power we can analyze larger volumes of data faster than we could only a few years ago. As will be discussed, in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), algorithms are applied to data and can then predict future outcomes via complex processes. AI has enormous potential to assist us in medicine, particularly when accessing and processing large volumes of data in order to address health crises. Footnote 2 AI is already having a significant impact in clinical diagnostics, cancer detection, and robotic surgery. Footnote 3 As clinicians, it is imperative that doctors and health care professionals become better informed about the science and applications of this technology. This will enable us to play a role in guiding pathways in development that ethically takes the future well-being and rights of humans, more particularly our patients, into account. As doctors, we have a duty of care to learn, to understand, to influence, and to ensure a safe future for our patients.
