Healthcare

The recent coronavirus pandemic accelerated the shift towards digitisation and automation in the healthcare industry. More specifically, hospitals began adopting practices such as online symptom checkers and virtual agents. Artificial Intelligence can also be used to reduce the amount of mundane tasks health workers use, freeing up their time that can be better spent in other areas of the hospital. Not only this, but it can also reduce the likelihood of human errors, which in some cases could even mark the difference between the life and death of a patient.
