The document discusses several topics related to artificial intelligence in medicine: - AI in medicine can be divided into virtual applications like electronic health records and physical applications like robots assisting in surgery. - Modern medicine faces challenges in acquiring, analyzing, and applying large amounts of knowledge to solve complex problems. AI programs aim to help clinicians with diagnosis, treatment decisions, and outcome prediction. - While augmented medicine seems successful for patients, healthcare professionals can resist it due to unpreparedness for digital medicine, increased administrative burden from electronic records, fears of replacement by AI, and lack of liability frameworks for AI recommendations.

Today, AI is considered a branch of engineering that implements novel concepts and novel
solutions to resolve complex challenges. With continued progress in electronic speed, capacity,
and software programming, computers might someday be as intelligent as humans. One cannot
neglect the important contribution of contemporary cybernetics to the development of AI.

2
Artificial intelligence (AI) is generally accepted as having started with the invention of robots.

3
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a general term that implies the use of a computer to model
intelligent behavior with minimal human intervention. AI is generally accepted as having started
with the invention of robots.

4
The study of artificial intelligence (AI) has been a continuous endeavor of scientists and
engineers for over 65 years.

5
AI is believed to be one of the major drives to change socio-economical lives. In another aspect,
AI contributes to the advancement of state-of-the-art technologies in many fields of study, as
helpful tools for groundbreaking research.

6
AI in medicine can be dichotomized into two subtypes: Virtual and physical. The virtual part
ranges from applications such as electronic health record systems to neural network-based
guidance in treatment decisions. The physical part deals with robots assisting in performing
surgeries, intelligent prostheses for handicapped people, and elderly care.

7
The virtual branch includes informatics approaches from deep learning information management
to control of health management systems, including electronic health records, and active
guidance of physicians in their treatment decisions. The physical branch is best represented by
robots used to assist the elderly patient or the attending surgeon. Also embodied in this branch
are targeted nanorobots, a unique new drug delivery system.

Modern medicine is faced with the challenge of acquiring, analyzing and applying the large
amount of knowledge necessary to solve complex clinical problems. The development of
medical artificial intelligence has been related to the development of AI programs intended to
help the clinician in the formulation of a diagnosis, the making of therapeutic decisions and the
prediction of outcome. They are designed to support healthcare workers in their everyday duties,
assisting with tasks that rely on the manipulation of data and knowledge. Such systems include
Artificial neural networks (ANNs), fuzzy expert systems, evolutionary computation and hybrid
intelligent systems.

9
Artificial intelligence-powered medical technologies are rapidly evolving into applicable
solutions for clinical practice. Deep learning algorithms can deal with increasing amounts of data
provide by wearables, smartphones, and other mobile monitoring sensors in different areas of
medicine.

Although the field of augmented medicine seems to encounter success with patients, it can be
met with a certain resistance by healthcare professionals, in particular physicians: concerning
this phenomenon, four widely discussed reasons should be provided. First, unpreparedness as to
the potential of digital medicine is due to the evident lack of basic and continuing education
regarding this discipline. Second, the early digitization of healthcare processes, very different
from the promise of augmented medicine came with a steep increase of the administrative burden
mainly linked to electronic health records, which has come to be known as one of the main
components of physician burnout. Third, there is increasing fear as to the risk of AI replacing
physicians, although the current and mainstream opinion in the literature is that AI will
complement physician intelligence in the future. Fourth, the current world-wide lack of a legal
framework that defines the concept of liability in the case of adoption or rejection of algorithm
recommendations leaves the physician exposed to potential legal outcomes when using AI.
