Have you ever thought what the future of medicine will look like, constitute or even evolve into? With technology emerging and working closely with medicine, the future and dynamics of such a sort has an endless possibility. This presentation will take you into some history and future implications of using artificial intelligence in medicine and also give you a broad scope of the history and evolution of AIM. The presentation will also look at some new uses regarding using technology in medicine and hope to give you objective view to draw you own conclusions as to just how far we have come, what we may benefit from using technology in medicine, and help you grapple with the question of just "how far" is "too far!"

From the earliest moments in the modern history of the computer, scientists have dreamed of creating an "electronic brain." Of the modern technological quests, this search to create artificially intelligent (AI) computers systems has been one of the most ambitious and, not surprisingly, most controversial! Man strives to augment his abilities by building tools. From the invention of the club to lengthen his reach and strengthen his blow to the refinement of the electron microscope to sharpen his vision, tools have extended his ability to sense and to manipulate the world about him. Today we stand on the threshold of new technical developments that will aid man's reasoning; the computer and the programming methods being devised for it are the new tools to effect this change.
Just what is artificial intelligence in medicine? It has been defined as the study of ideas that enable computers to do the things that make people seem intelligent. The central goals of artificial intelligence are to make computers more useful and to understand the principles, which make intelligence possible. This seems a rather straightforward definition but it embodies certain assumptions about the idea of intelligence and the relationship between human reasoning and computation, which are quiet controversial in some circles. Medical artificial intelligence is primarily concerned with the construction of AI programs that perform diagnosis and make therapy recommendations. Unlike medical applications based on other programming methods, such a purely statistical and problematic methods, medical AI programs are based on symbolic models of disease entities and their relationship to patient factors and clinical manifestations. How do you feel about the future of intelligence and computers?
