From social media to tourism, from public service to the service industry, people interact with artificial intelligence every day and have been doing so for quite some time. Virtual assistants and chatbots are examples of this. However, in more recent times, we have reached the next level: Generative AI, which can generate text, audio, and images based on user prompts. Large Language Models (LLMs), specifically those like ChatGPT, Microsoft Co-Pilot, or Deep Seek, specialise in understanding and generating human-like language from text data and are now common in the workplace and education. More examples of Generative AI can be found on our list of Tools.
Artificial intelligence and machine learning are being integrated into many areas of healthcare (and other industries). Features like chatbots are now common, and patient rooms, diagnosis, research studies, and more are all benefiting from AI, all aimed at improving health sciences and patient care. You can read more about this topic here, as well as watch the video below.
