Challenges remain to truly make AI transformational for healthcare, but there is no denying the positive impacts of AI in healthcare.2 As authors and software engineers, we have built and seen the application of various aspects of AI in healthcare, which include machine learning, deep learning, computer vision, and natural language processing. This book is about a future we believe will fully come to fruition in a five- to seven-year time period, with transformational impacts to healthcare.
This is not a technical whitepaper but rather a nontechnical primer or vision guide about what is possible using the capabilities of LLMs. It describes several healthcare use cases that are possible but not yet developed.
