Abstract

In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) technology has been developing at a tremendous pace. This is no exception in the medical field, and from the viewpoint of diagnosis and prognosis prediction, the day when AI surpasses humans may be close. However, incorporating AI into the medical field raises various issues such as those involving privacy, law and human psychology. Furthermore, there are roles that only human doctors can play when it comes to providing medical treatment. If a doctor can make good use of AI as assistants while cherishing the work that AI cannot do, better medical practices can be performed.
