AI is becoming increasingly accurate and effective in performing a broad range of complex health care related tasks (e.g. recognizing a malignant tumour on MRIs, and coordinating care). Such AI driven performance can then be scaled up, improve health outcomes and save many lives. As a result, AI helps clinicians, patients and many health stakeholders to make faster, better, and cheaper decisions, at scale. This presentation provides an overview of the state of the art in how AI and MAS are shaping the health care journey forward.</font></div><div class=""><font face="courier new, courier-ps-w01, courier-ps-w02, courier-ps-w10, monospace" class=""><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font face="courier new, courier-ps-w01, courier-ps-w02, courier-ps-w10, monospace" class=""><b class="">Prof. Dr. Peter Sarlin(**), "Learnings from 100 AI projects: Implications for healthcare"</b></font></div><div class=""><font face="courier new, courier-ps-w01, courier-ps-w02, courier-ps-w10, monospace" class=""><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font face="courier new, courier-ps-w01, courier-ps-w02, courier-ps-w10, monospace" class="">The past few years have been dominated by the hyped possibilities of AI. Implications of AI are oftentimes vindicated by highlighting promising research with a promise of real-world value and a wide range of application areas that could be transformed. In today's discussion, a common trait is to focus on one or the other, but rarely on their combination. This talk summarizes learnings from 100 AI projects in terms of technological challenges and practical bottlenecks, as well as technology-enabled opportunities, to find the largest opportunities for value creation. This allows us also to mirror the current state of AI into application areas and specific opportunities in healthcare, as well as examples of ongoing transformative AI initiatives.</font></div><div class=""><font face="courier new, courier-ps-w01, courier-ps-w02, courier-ps-w10, monospace" class=""><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font face="courier new, courier-ps-w01, courier-ps-w02, courier-ps-w10, monospace" class=""><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font face="courier new, courier-ps-w01, courier-ps-w02, courier-ps-w10, monospace" class="">(*) Vice President, Global Head of AI, Tieto, Sweden; nominated a Top-100 AI Leaders in Drug Discovery and Advanced Healthcare, by Deep Knowledge Analytics (<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/guttmann/" class="">https://www.linkedin.com/in/guttmann/</a>)</font></div><div class=""><font face="courier new, courier-ps-w01, courier-ps-w02, courier-ps-w10, monospace" class="">(**) Executive Chairman and Chief Scientist of Silo.AI, Professor of Practice at Hanken School of Economics (<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/psarlin/" class="">https://www.linkedin.com/in/psarlin/</a>)</font></div><div class=""><font face="courier new, courier-ps-w01, courier-ps-w02, courier-ps-w10, monospace" class=""><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font face="courier new, courier-ps-w01, courier-ps-w02, courier-ps-w10, monospace" class=""><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font face="courier new, courier-ps-w01, courier-ps-w02, courier-ps-w10, monospace" class="">** SUMMARY</font></div><div class=""><font face="courier new, courier-ps-w01, courier-ps-w02, courier-ps-w10, monospace" class=""><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font face="courier new, courier-ps-w01, courier-ps-w02, courier-ps-w10, monospace" class="">"CARE for Smarter Health" aims to discuss computational models, social computing, decision support systems, and agent-based technology, both theoretical models as well as research applied to practical solutions related to Healthcare and Medicine, including (non-exhaustive list):Personalized Healthcare.
