Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence, or AI, is an umbrella term for machine learning and deep learning. It is where a machine takes in information from its surroundings and, from that, makes the most optimal decision appropriate to the situation.

How Artificial Intelligence Is Revolutionizing Emergency Medicine

From triage algorithms to digital twins, artificial intelligence is reshaping emergency care, delivering faster decisions, smarter workflows, and raising vital questions about trust, transparency, and regulation.

Eating more plant-based foods may lower breast cancer risk, major international study indicates

Greater adherence to healthful plant-based dietary patterns was associated with lower breast cancer incidence and reduced all-cause mortality among women with breast cancer in large prospective cohorts. Specific micronutrients showed differential associations with cancer risk and survival, though findings remain observational and not causal.

Large language models excel in tests yet struggle to guide real patient decisions

A randomized study of 1,298 UK adults found that while large language models perform well on medical tasks alone, they do not improve and can worsen decision-making when used by the public. Failures stem from human–AI interaction issues, showing that benchmark accuracy does not predict safe or effective real-world medical support.
