AI's prowess extends to crafting tailored treatment options by analyzing medical records, research, and clinical expertise. This data-driven approach ushers in a new era of precision medicine, optimizing responses and minimizing side effects. IBM's Watson, for instance, suggests personalized therapies based on individual histories and allergies.

5. Ethical Considerations

With AI's rise, ethical considerations come to the fore. Initiatives like Stanford's fairness in AI ensure unbiased treatment and data privacy.

6. Drug Discovery and Development

AI fuels drug innovation by synthesizing vast medical histories and geographic data. This approach becomes particularly vital during new virus outbreaks, enabling the prediction of protein structures for potential antidotes.

7. Predictive Analytics for Patient Care
