Utilizing Artificial Intelligence For The Enhancement Of Public Health

Abstract

Since the term "artificial intelligence" (AI) was initially introduced by a cohort of researchers in 1956, significant progress has been made in this domain. Although numerous AI applications have been implemented in high-income countries, their utilisation in resource-poor environments is still in its early stages. Indications suggest that a shift is underway. (Alali, et al., 2022) A global conference was organised by the United Nations (UN) in 2017 with the purpose of deliberating on the advancement and implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) applications that have the potential to alleviate destitution and provide an extensive array of essential public services. Recently, a diverse range of stakeholders convened at an additional United Nations meeting to evaluate the potential contribution of artificial intelligence (AI) towards the realisation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
