Deep Medicine: How Artificial Intelligence Can Make Healthcare Human Again

The inhumanity of modern medicine has had devastating effects. Medical care breaks down at its core because clinicians are unable to form meaningful relationships with their patients due to time constraints and other pressures. Renowned doctor Eric Topol explains how AI can improve healthcare in his book Deep Medicine.

AI has the potential to revolutionize every aspect of a doctor’s practice, from taking notes and analyzing medical scans to making diagnoses and administering treatments, drastically decreasing the cost of healthcare while simultaneously improving patient outcomes.

AI will make room for the genuine healing that takes place between a doctor who can listen and a patient who wants to be heard by relieving doctors of the responsibilities that go in the way of human connection. Deep Medicine is a groundbreaking, thought-provoking, and ultimately optimistic look at the ways in which the incredible computing power of AI is already improving healthcare for everyone involved.
