Abstract
Researchers detail new data in Artificial Intelligence. According to news originating from Durham, North Carolina, by NewsRx editors, the research stated, “Implementing Artificial Intelligence in medicine is revolutionizing how medicine is practiced. It has much promise in bringing about improved clinical outcomes and efficiency while decreasing costs.” Financial support for this research came from NIH National Cancer Institute (NCI). Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Duke University, “There are also concerns and unintended consequences that are being realized and significant efforts to consider ethical principles in the implementation of Artificial Intelligence in medicine. One potential consequence may be the loss of what has been described as the soul of medicine: the physician-patient relationship. This relationship is especially precious in the context of what the US Surgeon General Vivek H. Murthy MD has called an ‘Epidemic of Loneliness and Isolation.’ This commentary describes considerations and potential steps to protect this vital relationship while implementing Artificial Intelligence approaches to improving patient care.”
