Certainly, artificial intelligence is poised to be a transformative force, presenting a profound challenge to human capabilities. Artificial intelligence is on the verge of assuming the role of humans across various domains (“ChatGPT may beat doctors in tackling depression, says study,” Oct.19, Gulf Today website).

Examples such as self-driving vehicles, ChatGPT, and smart grids are just the initial steps in a series of revolutionary changes set to reshape the scientific landscape, ultimately enhancing the quality and convenience of human existence.

Within the realm of healthcare, accurate disease diagnosis has always been a formidable task. Incorrect diagnoses lead to significant challenges as patients seek relief from their ailments, often changing physicians and hospitals in pursuit of speedy recovery. However, AI possesses the remarkable ability to swiftly generate a comprehensive list of potential diseases based on available symptoms. This innovation is poised to replace the current practice of healthcare professionals memorising extensive lists of associated symptoms, combing through extensive medical records, or verifying through countless patient histories. Smart technologies are poised to usher in a new era in healthcare.
