The worldwide explosion of interest in artificial intelligence (AI) has created a before-and-after moment in our lives by generating great improvements in such sectors as the automotive and food production industries. AI has even been called the fourth industrial revolution. Machine learning through AI is helping to improve professional processes and promises to transform the health care sector as we know it in various ways: 1) through applications able to promote health in the general population by providing high-quality information and offering advice for different segments of the population based on prediction models; 2) by developing prediction models based on anonymized clinical data, for preventive purposes in primary care; 3) by analyzing images to provide additional decision-making support for health care providers, for improving specialist care at the secondary level; and 4) through robotics applied to processes that promote health and well-being. However, the medical profession harbors doubts about whether this revolution is a threat or an opportunity owing to a lack of understanding of AI technology and the methods used to validate its applications. This article outlines basic aspects of AI as it is applied in dermatology and reviews the main advances achieved in the last 5 years.
全球对人工智能(AI)兴趣的激增,通过在汽车和食品生产等行业带来巨大改进,在我们的生活中创造了一个前后对比的时刻。人工智能甚至被称为第四次工业革命。通过人工智能进行的机器学习有助于改进专业流程,并有望以各种方式改变我们所知的医疗保健行业:1)通过能够通过提供高质量信息并基于预测模型为不同人群提供建议来促进普通人群健康的应用程序;2)通过基于匿名临床数据开发预测模型,用于初级保健中的预防目的;3)通过分析图像为医疗保健提供者提供额外的决策支持,以改善二级医疗中的专科护理;4)通过应用于促进健康和福祉的机器人技术。然而,由于对人工智能技术及其应用验证方法缺乏了解,医学界对这场革命是威胁还是机遇心存疑虑。本文概述了人工智能在皮肤病学中的应用的基本方面,并回顾了过去五年取得的主要进展。
