Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Medicine: Horror Vision or Savior?

Especially in medicine, AI systems can contribute to solving essential problems in healthcare provision.

For many, however, AI also represents a threat to the basic principles of empathetic medicine.

It’s time to set the course, to address potential misuse through regulation, and simultaneously utilize the great opportunities towards more economically viable care for an aging population. In recent years, AI has made remarkable progress and is opening up new possibilities in diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and research. But how will it continue, what role will it play in the future? We will explore these and many other questions in our ZKNFT SPECIAL on Artificial Intelligence in Medicine on November 16, 2023 at the Social Studios (Glogauer Str. 19, 10999 Berlin) from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, organized by WMC HEALTHCARE and the University Hospital Halle.
