Business Insight Al In Medicine Recently, there have been talks, discussions, and articles about artificial intelligence in almost every paper, magazine, or news program. New technology is not stopping, but rather progressing faster than ever, which is good for the most part, but only if we control it well. Today, after years of uncontrolled popularity, we know that social media has caused our society. and the global society many unwanted risks and consequences. Governments and medical societies started now working on t policies limiting access to some platforms and possibly eliminating some platforms in general. This is all more difficult if done after the fact of years of massive utilization and already established habits. TikTok is a daily activity of thousands of American teenagers. Not only, removing it from being available in the US will meet a lot of unhappy feedback. But keeping it as it is, it becomes possibly a national risk. Decisions are to be made and they are not easy. presented by Arlington Dermatology Artificial intelligence might be an excellent tool for medical science. It may be a great solution for law and enforcement. There is almost not a single field of operation that would not benefit from it. But all of it, like any other technology, needs to present the right purpose. And that purpose needs to be defined, monitored, and controlled by some strict policies. Allowing Al to roll without those policies more than likely will bring more risk than benefit. There are many voices of individuals who have been developing Al technology warning us as a society and warning our lawmakers that unregulated development and usage of Al may bring us to catastrophic events. The results of those go beyond my imagination. But we all know that there are a lot of 'bad guys' who may use it against the world order and for their own gain. There are also many mental disease cases who are otherwise brilliant and can play too far to lead to a disaster. And finally, it must be a global, international effort to create policies that will work for the world. We are too much associated in good and bad ways among the countries and communities of the world to leave anybody behind. Technology has been and will remain a global task forever. I look at medical science and the enormous progress we have made over the last 20-30 years. But I also know some limits of where we have not gotten yet. So, I welcome more innovation and more development, but I am also cautious about how things can go wrong. When Oppenheimer discovered and tested an atomic bomb, he did not predict further developments in disturbing warfare competition among the countries. Certainly. his goals did not align with the goals of the leaders of our country and other countries at that time. As it was just the beginning of worldly powers to create more and more self- destructing measures and technologies. I hope that, in upcoming months and years, we will have opportunities to develop and learn more about the positive sides of Al and I hope our leaders will be smart enough to start working on policies before the new habits are developed and create risks for all of us.
