Experts: The combination of medical health and artificial intelligence will bring about new changes.

Currently, global medical prices are showing a continuous upward trend. Liu Guoen, director of the Global Health Development Institute at Peking University and professor of economics at the National Development Research Institute, stated at a forum held at Peking University on the afternoon of the 16th that the combination of medical health and artificial intelligence will bring about new changes and help alleviate the problem of rising medical expenses. With the arrival of the artificial intelligence era, there are new tools to improve the efficiency of medical services. Liu Guoen stated that the medical health field has several characteristics: disease uncertainty, individual heterogeneity, and information asymmetry. The advantage of artificial intelligence lies in reducing the cost of information search, copying, and tracking, thereby helping humans make more efficient decisions. Therefore, the application of artificial intelligence in the field of medical health has great potential.
