Topic Overview
We’re back with another new technology that we believe will transform healthcare. Artificial intelligence… Here’s what you need to know in a nutshell!
Hosts: Em Tombash, MD, Todd Ponsky, MD, Ramy Shaaban MD, PhD
Artificial intelligence is the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computers. AI requires a foundation of specialized hardware and software for writing and training machine learning algorithms. We will talk about machine learning in future episodes, so stay tuned!
In general, AI systems work by ingesting large amounts of labeled training data, analyzing the data for correlations and patterns, and using these patterns to make predictions about future states.
AI programming focuses on three cognitive skills: learning, reasoning and self-correction. Learning processes focus on acquiring data and creating rules for how to turn the data into actionable information. The rules, which are called algorithms, provide computing devices with step-by-step instructions for how to complete a specific task.
While reasoning processes focus on choosing the right algorithm to reach a desired outcome, self-correction processes are designed to continually fine-tune algorithms and ensure they provide the most accurate results possible.
Couple of advantages of AI are
- Being good at detail-oriented jobs,
- Reducing time for data-heavy tasks,
- Delivering consistent results.
AI has changed our world and made our lives more convenient and interesting. Some of the many uses of AI you may know include:
- Self-driving cars. Machine learning and visual recognition are used in autonomous vehicles to help the car understand its surroundings and be able to react accordingly. These cars can learn and adapt to traffic patterns, signs, and more.
- Voice recognition. Most people know to call out for Siri when they need directions, or to ask their smart home Alexa to set a timer.
- Streaming services learn about your preferences and use algorithms to process all the TV shows, movies, or music it has and find patterns to give you suggestions.

Hey everyone, we are back with a new episode of our transforming healthcare series, where we introduce new technologies that we believe will transform healthcare. Today we're talking about artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence or AI, as you will hear throughout the video, is a simulation of human intelligence processed by machines, especially computers. AI requires a foundation of specialized hardware and software for writing and training machine learning algorithms. We will talk about machine learning in our future videos. So stay tuned. In general, AI systems work by ingesting large amount of labeled training data, analyzing the data for correlation and patterns, and using these patterns to make predictions about future states. AI programming focuses on three cognitive skills: learning, reasoning, and self-correction. Learning processes focus on acquiring data and creating rules for how to turn the data into actionable information. The rules, which are called algorithms, provide computing devices with step-by-step instructions for how to complete a specific task. While reasoning processes focus on choosing the right algorithm for a desired outcome, self-correction processes are designed to continue to fine-tune algorithms and ensure they provide the most accurate results possible. AI has changed our world and made our lives more convenient and interesting. Some of the many uses of AI you may know include self-driving cars. These cars can learn and adapt to traffic patterns, signs, and more. Voice recognition. Most people know to call out for Siri, ask their smart home to set a timer. There are many other uses of AI all around us every day and technology is advancing at a rapid pace and continually changing how we live. Stay tuned for our next video where we'll focus on applications of artificial intelligence in healthcare. Download the Stakeholder app, follow us on social media, and subscribe on YouTube channel.
