Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is much in the news, with many claiming that it will have a great effect on our lives in the future, much more than it is already having. Thirty to forty years ago (and even more), similar claims were being made. Already back then a number of medical systems had been developed, so enthusiasm about the benefits of AI in health care and other areas is not new. Computer technology, however, has developed considerably since those early days and now the potential of AI in many fields, including in health care, is way beyond anything remotely possible in the past. New technologies often raise ethical issues in new ways and some of these will be explored in this talk.
