COVID-19 has impacted our healthcare systems, in both positive and negative ways. The challenging strain we have felt on our healthcare infrastructure has very often masked the positive impacts the pandemic has had on medical technology advancements, and artificial intelligence has moved to the forefront. The application of AI across healthcare networks and in medical devices is helping us improve systems that perform tasks normally requiring human intelligence. It is giving us the bandwidth to perform tasks at greater speed, with better accuracy and helps us in predicting patterns. But just as any technology AI can have security issues when not managed correctly and when it comes to health and medicine this could cost lives. In this episode we look at AI in healthcare and medicine and talk about the kind of cyber security we need to not only protect our personal data but to keep us from harm.
