Paging Dr. Robot: Artificial intelligence moves into care

In this file photo from May 2, 2019, Cadet Cheyenne Quilter works with a virtual reality character named "Ellie" at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, N.Y. Artificial intelligence is spreading into health care, often as software or a computer program capable of learning from large amounts of data and making predictions to guide care or help patients.

Researchers say this push into medicine is at an early stage, but they expect the technology to grow by helping people stay healthy, assisting doctors with tasks and doing more behind-the-scenes work. They also think patients will get used to AI in their care just like they’ve gotten accustomed to using the technology when they travel or shop.

Ellie appears on computer monitors and leads a person through initial questions. Ellie makes eye contact, nods and uses hand gestures like a human therapist. It even pauses if the person gives a short answer, to push them to say more. The team that developed Ellie also has put together a newer AI-based program to help students manage stress and stay healthy.

“Everybody thinks they are alone in their thoughts and problems,” he said. “Ari definitely counters that isolation.”

'freeing doctors to spend more time with patients.' No, that won't happen. They will just have time to see more patients which will make more money for clinics, hospitals, etc.

Well I hope it's not dangerous,?

This is America. There is not health care here. Just people who will take money from us. If we have it.

Imagine how far we have come since the early days of AI

I don't mind it. If a machine can break down my health data and give me a better idea of my risks, I'm taking their help. Life is a gamble. Wouldn't you rather count cards than read faces?

More things to go wrong.

Great. By that I mean not great it's hard enough to navigate as is.

A.I. already has a better bedside manner than most doctors lol.
