AI is a collection of emerging areas of innovation that are essentially computer models built from our understanding of human intelligence to approximate, automate, enhance and optimise the ability of machines to do human thinking. AI has the potential to revolutionise the way we live and work, with applications in digital health, such as patient and physician engagement, and education and clinical trial design. AI’s most promising use case in clinical trials is within predictive analytics and analysing data from previous trials to identify factors that make certain trials more successful than others.
