AI in the Healthcare Sector – Blessing or Cause of Danger?

[Delaforetnoire]

Technology is moving towards improvement, different types of work can be used in the healthcare with AI. Currently, we can see that different types of activities are going on to use AI in different types of critical work.

AI is doing good helpful work in small small things in the healthcare sector but bringing AI towards critical works seems to be taking a dangerous form.

For weeks now it has been Ai discussion here ,and many people has different view concerning the use of Ai ,but talking about healthcare service I would say it's good to use the help of Ai but not entirely Ai in everything because it will be risky, aswear ,so it's better to apply the help of Ai and humans intelligence especially in the healthcare service , I keep using the word help , because I feel it should only be for assistance and not the one doing the entire whole work whereby replacing human.

You may know well why discussion about AI is happening because everyone is understanding in which directions AI is moving at the present time.

Different people who are involved in research on AI are giving their final statements and stepping away from the path of AI, that's why currently the topic of AI is being discussed much more.

AI is helping quite well in the medical field too but not seeing the use of AI in different types of critical work in a good way, that's why the post has been created for discussion. As you said, I am also saying the same because AI is helping us in different ways but I think the use of AI in the healthcare sector for critical work will never be right.

That’s right, Ai has been exceptionally helpful in different sectors, but the most important thing here is knowing exactly where AI should end and where human judgement should take over. The truth is that, when it comes to the healthcare sector, AI can perfectly take care of information processing and very quickly too, but we all know that AI works with the data it is fed, and it’ll take more than just data to understand a patient’s situation. Human oversight and judgment is still very much necessary when decisions can directly impact someone’s life.

How it became dangerous if it's helping the health professionals to have better accuracy of what they do? like in surgeries, etc. Those apparatus that uses AI technology for it has basis and have a better aim than humans although IMO it's still better if it's balanced.

I see it as something good if it's helping saving lives. We have to embrace that truth that without these machines and technologies, curing diseases will be harder.

I see the use of AI in the healthcare sector as a good thing. The reason for this is that whether today or tomorrow, AI will enter almost all sectors and is already being studied. However, I don't think that any such AI or robot will be able to come out right now that can work hundred percent accurately or without any assist. To work, a doctor's assist will definitely be needed. So here I don't see it as a threat to doctors. Doctors win. Those who can adopt this thing may be able to stay ahead of others.

Implementing AI in medicine is beneficial. Well, at least because there aren’t enough doctors. Even bad doctors are in short supply! And in medicine, most doctors are, let’s say, "below average". Therefore, AI can be even more professional than most doctors.

Many people talk about errors as a dangerous factor in implementing AI. Doctors make mistakes too. So, when the number of AI‑related medical errors does not exceed the average statistical number of human doctors’ errors, that will be the moment to completely replace most doctors with AI.

There’s also the issue of robotics to replace mid‑level and junior medical personnel. There, errors and a careless attitude towards their work are even more common than among doctors.

There were lots of concerns raised recently regarding AI and how fast it is advancing, cases like when a model escaped from its testing environment to hack into another platform and other similar cases are sparking questions on whether we’re too fast on advancing these technologies. The risks are there but earlier on most people thought it doesn’t have any effect and then right now must researchers are raising concerns about it.

It does help  the medical field a lot, it has made processing medical information and other things more efficient than before. So it isn’t directly a cause of danger, if it is controlled well during the implementation, AI should work together with the professionals rather than takeover completely because that’s when the risks will start to appear.

I don't expect anything else from AI in the healthcare section than data analysis and information gathering, anything else is not safe for the human race entirely, if AI can learn and act on human bodies themselves it's giving them too much control.

One day AI can start developing minds of their own without the humans concept, AI is dangerous and many people don't know it, that's why some politicians are pushing for slow down on AI development.

Everything related to AI development is been pushed too fast.

I'm not a fortune teller and I can't predict what would happen with AI in the healthcare sector. We need to be patient and to gather and analyze enough data about the implementation and usage of AI technology in the healthcare system. I'm sure that the governments won't allow AI to be used in "critical work", but some sort of AI adoption in the healthcare system is necessary, since there is a shortage of nurses and doctors in multiple countries around the world.

The use of Ai in different fields have become increasingly common among people who are interested in learning more about their work which is quite okay, but being too over reliant on the use of Ai could be detrimental especially for a field as delicate practical and professional like the health care sector.

In this field there’s a limit to how Ai should be used in such a way that Ai is only going to Augment human intelligence and naturalism which is the most important of the field and Provided there’s a strict governance structure regarding the use of Ai in the healthcare sector. For sure, whatever have an advantage equally will have a disadvantage and at such Ai brings both sides to the table. People say it’s good for quick diagnosis especially in an emergency situation, more discoveries, improve workforce etc. but there’s also the risk of reliability or trust, accountability, security, and misinterpretations which could cause serious damage in the course of the use of Ai in the healthcare sector.

I am not very experienced with the advanced technology, but AI could help the healthcare sector as a helping hand, not the main working hand. The human body is too critical, and AI would sometimes fail to take the right decision on time. For that, it’s pretty risky to use AI in the healthcare sector in some departments like surgery.

I know current AI is more advanced, but we shouldn’t ignore the possible risk. The healthcare section is directly related to the human body. In some cases AI would be dangerous if AI were to be used as a main working hand. However, I would consider it as a good way but should limited use where there is no life risk.

AI makes the work of the people around the healthcare industry easier, quicker to finish, and making them more effective and productive in what they're doing... or are they?

Well, I guess that's how I see when it comes to AI and healthcare. I know that AI is evolving, and there are many people who are using it already. There are different sectors where they're using AI to make their work faster, and that includes the healthcare industry. I just hope though that humans and AI will work together in order to achieve better results, and not rely on AI alone because we know that there are times where AI is wrong, and it's the health of human that we are talking about this one.

In my opinion, I see it to be a good thing for AI to be in healthcare. But in healthcare, AI can not fully replace healthcare workers. Example is in surgery, the AI can do somethings but not all things. Also what the AI are doing is being monitored by healthcare professionals.

We like it or not like it, AI is becoming part of the world and they are being helpful.

The question is a bit dumb tbh.

AI in healthcare isn't being implemented by idiots. It has been gradually introduced in areas where it adds value and where it can increase productivity. As you'll see, the responses so far all point to the same thing. Maybe you're the one who thinks that in healthcare, AI is left to make decisions on its own, when in reality doctors use it, and ultimately, it's always a human who makes the decisions.

[Kelward]

Whether the use of AI in the healthcare sector is a blessing or a cause of danger is a secondary matter now because AI is already here and making tremendous impact not only in healthcare but in different sectors that you can think about, it is already a part of systems for effective outputs. I've heard a couple of interviews of specialist doctors that discussed about robotic procedures for specific surgeries and they talk about how effective these operations are compared to human operators.

Aside from AI stealing jobs of specialist doctors, I think that so far I can say that it's a welcomed development because these robots that are programed wouldn't make human errors where a doctor's hand can twitch and make a mistake. But I hope that it wouldn't get to a stage where humans will allow AI to do everything for them without monitoring how they operate, it could become a disaster if malfunctions were to occur.

It is the abuse or overuse of AI that is a curse. When health organisations begin to focus more on profit-making instead of the wellbeing of patients, it might lead to misuse of these tools. There are areas that humans should handle in the health sector. Replacing humans with these bots because of money and not due to efficiency will cause more harm than good.

AI is already contributing massively to the enhancement of the health industry as they perform task faster, cheaper, and more efficiently than humans. However, there are still concerns like data privacy and security, lack of human empathy, and system errors and misdiagnosis.

Well it might not actually be dangerous as we are thinking it would be because there is know how AI will be brought to that technical and crucial field that it was not already tested and make sure it has passed all the process that would certify it capable of working in the healthcare, so actually in terms of job perfection I'm seeing it in a good way even if I didn't believe AI could fit in this sector before but things have changed and they're proving smarter to do a lot of things we wouldn't imagine, but however the only bad I think it will do on this sector is sharing the workforce with human because it will definitely reduce the number if healthcare personnel.

[Donneski]

Artificial Intelligence was introduced to provide assistance to humans not to completely take over human jobs, that's what I think. AI in healthcare I'll not say is a complete blessing or a complete danger. The effect is mostly determined by the usage.

For instance, if AI is used to analyze data, assist with diagnosis or help doctors spot things that'll probably be useful, they become a blessing but when AI is allowed to make critical medical decisions without a proper human supervision, it can end up causing irreparable issues which will make it's involvement a danger.

So AI should be used as super helpful medical assistant but the final decisions should be made by qualified medical professionals, they're humans and they should know the safest measures for fellow humans.

Yea, I  think AI is very useful in certain fields and sectors currently but it is not ready to
be deployed absolutely everywhere, even though a lot of people seem to think it is.

Personally I have heard in my country that AI seems to be quite successful in making
detections on certain types of cancers. It could have a higher successful detection
rate than human detections, so in this regard this is a positive use case.

Using AI to sort out your personal files and emails and finding that it went ahead and
deleted everything is not a good use case!
