Summary of Artificial intelligence in healthcare: opportunities and challenges | Navid Toosi Saidy | TEDxQUT

00:00:00 - 00:05:00

This TEDx talk discusses the potential benefits and challenges of implementing artificial intelligence in healthcare. The speaker argues that AI has the potential to revolutionize healthcare by making it more personalized and efficient. However, he also warns of the dangers of data bias and the need for better regulatory frameworks.

• 00:00:00 Navid Toosi Saidy, a TEDx speaker, discusses the potential benefits of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare. AI models can help doctors make more informed decisions about diagnosis and treatment, and can be used to predict an individual's likelihood of success for a particular treatment. However, current regulation frameworks are not designed for AI software, and need to be updated in order to allow for its widespread implementation into clinical practice.
• 00:05:00 The speaker discusses the potential benefits and drawbacks of artificial intelligence in healthcare, highlighting the need for regulatory frameworks that are inclusive and adaptive. He discusses a mobile-based diagnostic software that uses AI to detect skin cancer. He discusses the importance of data bias and the need for AI models to be trained on diverse and robust data sets. He warns that skin cancer does disproportionately affect certain populations, and that this necessitates the development of a functionality in AI models that allows for "I don't know" or "This is my best guess based on a skewed training population." However, he notes that this functionality is not currently available and it is urgently needed. If implemented properly, AI could revolutionize the delivery of health care by allowing for personalized health and well-being advice for all patients.
