3 Ways Artificial Intelligence Is Transforming Healthcare (Part 2)

Welcome to the second part of our series focusing on the numerous ways that artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming healthcare. In our previous article, we delved into how AI is improving radiology, pathological imaging, and brain-computer interfacing. In case you missed it, you can read it here. In this entry, we’ll take a look at […]
3 Ways Artificial Intelligence Is Transforming Healthcare (Part 1)

Healthcare is one of the oldest industries in the world, and it’s obviously not going anywhere anytime soon. But because of its stability and entrenchment, healthcare’s always been incredibly slow to enact changes, introduce new technologies, and update standards. Artificial intelligence (AI), in contrast, is a much younger field. Although that hasn’t stopped it from […]
Are We in the Era of AI-Powered Cyber-Warfare?

For almost the entirety of its relatively short history, the US has been engaged in one conflict or another. Over the past few decades, technology and science have increasingly been used in these battles. As a result, threats can come in many shapes and sizes today. But our biggest undeclared war right now doesn’t involve […]
Can Machine Learning Solve Climate Change?

Climate change is the most pressing problem of our era. And how we approach solving it will define how humanity will survive on earth. This matter has caused many innovative thinkers to envision what a viable, sustainable future looks like. Perhaps electricity generated by renewable means will completely replace fossil fuels in transportation. Maybe we’ll […]

Artificial intelligence (AI) is advancing at a rapid-fire pace. This breakneck speed makes it hard to keep track of and evaluate every important AI development. To solve this problem, angel investor Ian Hogarth and RAAIS and Air Street Capital founder Nathan Benaich have put together the State of AI Report 2019. In this recently published […]
Looking at Data in a Different Way Is Key to Unlocking Healthcare AI’s Value — Part 3

Welcome to the third and final part of our series on how looking at data in a different way can unlock more value from healthcare AI! In our last entry, we examined the detrimental effects that bias can have on AI-driven care. We also delved into one of the main bottlenecks to medical AI innovation: […]
Looking at Data in a Different Way Is Key to Unlocking Healthcare AI’s Value — Part 2

By providing the right dose of innovation, artificial intelligence (AI) can change modern medicine for the better. But a change in perspective on data is sorely needed to realize AI’s true potential. Welcome to the second part of our series on how looking at data in a different way can unlock more value from AI. […]
AI and Machine Learning: What’s the Difference?

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are both big buzzwords in the tech industry. But they’re often erroneously used interchangeably. At its core, AI comes from the field of computer science. On the other hand, machine learning is actually a subset of AI. So while the two subjects are inherently related, they are certainly not […]
Looking at Data in a Different Way Is Key to Unlocking Healthcare AI’s Value — Part 1

Famous futurist Roy Amara once said, “We tend to overestimate the effect of a technology in the short run and underestimate the effect in the long run.” From all of the hype and headlines surrounding the development of artificial intelligence (AI), it’d be safe to assume that the technology has fallen victim to this principle […]
