Where expertise and tech meet: AI in healthcare

It's not entirely surprising that AI in healthcare is considered an enormous opportunity. Doctors and clinicians are overworked and stressed, and patients are expecting ever quicker and more effective diagnosis and treatment. At the same time, healthcare survives on efficiency and moving patients and staff where they are needed as quickly as possible. It's a perfect opportunity to take some of the strain off the human, and a wide variety of AI-based solutions are developing everything from analyzing scans to setting up appointments and assisting ward rounds. Using AI to 'oil the machine' while respecting and amplifying human expertise is an exciting prospect, and seemingly an ideal case study for the current capabilities of AI. So what can other organizations in different fields learn from the way healthcare is embracing AI and the learnings they've taken away so far? Joining us today to explain is General Electric Healthcare's Andy Cachaldora.

This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organisations and what we can learn from it.
