Eric Topol Right now, we have extraordinary potential to understand the medical essence of human beings in an unprecedented fashion. Sensors, genomics, imaging, advanced analytics and deep learning — a major subtype of artificial intelligence — are clearly reshaping the future of medicine. In my latest book, Deep Medicine, I look at how the awesome power of artificial intelligence can make medicine better for all humans involved. By freeing physicians from the tasks that interfere with human connection, AI will create space for the real healing that takes place between a doctor who can listen and a patient who needs to be heard.
