The Role of AI in Medical Systems Design: A General View on Its Advantages and Disadvantages

Abstract

This article addresses the transformative role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the design of medical systems, highlighting how AI applications are revolutionizing healthcare through enhanced diagnostic precision, predictive analytics for preventive care, optimized treatment plans, and improved patient management and monitoring. Through an examination of AI's contributions, such as its ability to interpret medical images with high accuracy, predict health outcomes, personalize treatment plans, and monitor patients remotely, the paper illustrates the significant power of AI to improve healthcare diagnosis, delivery, treatment, and patient outcomes. However, it also addresses the ethical considerations and challenges inherent in integrating AI into healthcare, including data privacy, security concerns, and the need for transparency and accountability in AI algorithms. By presenting both the advancements and the hurdles, the article emphasizes the importance of adopting a balanced approach towards harnessing the advantages of AI in healthcare while keeping into consideration addressing its ethical, legal, and social ramifications.
