Is artificial intelligence currently a necessity or a protracted experiment? Just three years ago, it seemed like it was the distant future, but today AI is a tool that is gradually becoming an assistant for specialists from various fields. Each region of Russia has introduced at least one medical solution with artificial intelligence, such as services for analysing medical images and electronic medical records. The use of AI portends an explosive increase in labour productivity, a reduction in incidental resource costs, including time and human resources, a brand-new level of predictive analytics, as well as human interaction with the healthcare system through personal digital assistants. Speakers will share their experience in introducing artificial intelligence technologies and also discuss the main obstacles that arise in the use of AI. What effects could result from the introduction of AI systems for different beneficiaries: doctors, patients, scientists, and industry managers? What problems is AI solving today and what are scientists arguing about? What are the prospects for using technology in the future? Can this technology be 100% trusted?
