The impact of AI is more profound than electricity and fire.

  • In a survey 35years old seems to be the cutting point between a positive and negative view of AI….it’s not what you think !
  • Learning points:
    • Human vs machine reasoning. What applies to a doctor making a diagnosis ?
    • Resistance from many in the medical community
  • AI plays a role where pattern recognition is important: which specialties does this apply
  • Presentation of the publication in JEADV published in Feb 2021 Pangti R el al. A machine learning-based, decision support, mobile phone based application for diagnosis of common dermatological diseases.
    • Causes of poorer performance
    • Accurate very well in skin cancer, but not yet well in inflammatory dermatology.
    • Very accurate when the top 3 differential diagnosis’s added and not just the top diagnosis.
  • Publications comments:
    • BCC diagnosis machine-learning vs dermatologists & non dermatologists
    • Covid19 recognition of skin rashes using ML
    • Review of literature
