Episode 25 — AI in Healthcare

Few fields show AI’s potential more vividly than healthcare. This episode begins with diagnostic support systems, from early expert tools like MYCIN to today’s advanced medical imaging models that detect tumors and abnormalities in X-rays and MRIs. We explore predictive analytics for patient outcomes, genomics and precision medicine for tailoring treatments, and drug discovery pipelines accelerated by algorithms. Virtual health assistants, telemedicine support, and remote monitoring illustrate how AI improves accessibility and efficiency in patient care.But healthcare AI is also where stakes are highest. We’ll discuss regulatory oversight by agencies such as the FDA, ethical concerns about patient privacy, and risks of unequal performance across demographic groups. Clinical trials, population health analytics, and global health applications show both opportunities and challenges. By the end, listeners will see healthcare as a sector where AI delivers life-saving potential, but also one where safety, fairness, and trust are non-negotiable.
