TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Google has reportedly developed an artificial intelligence (AI) that is able to predict a person’s death with an accuracy level of 95 percent, as stated in a journal published by Nature Research and Futurism.com.
Google researchers utilized the data records of 216 adult patients from two hospitals in the United States. The records include clinical trial results, readmission, the use of hospital facilities, and patient diagnostics.
The Google team reportedly used a medical brain algorithm to construct the AI. The same algorithm is said to be similar to the one used to predict the death of a breast cancer patient, which was considered to be extremely accurate.
The main goal of this AI is to be able to utilize it in numerous clinical scenarios to calculate which patient would need the highest priority.
The journal states that this method is ten times more accurate compared to traditional diagnostic method, specifically 93-95 percent accurate. The AI’s developers state that it is not to scare people, instead is used by medical workers to make an effective medical assessment.
