Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence (AI) is being rapidly integrated into various medical applications. Although early application of AI has been achieved in image-based, as well as statistical computational models, translation into procedure-based specialties such as surgery may take longer to achieve.

The question arises as to whether machines will achieve the wisdom and intelligence of human educators.
