Artificial intelligence suggests cures for existing diseases – and saves lives

An artificial intelligence-based platform by Professor Feigenbaum of the University of Pennsylvania crosses thousands of existing drugs with thousands of diseases, enabling the discovery of breakthrough treatments for rare and untreatable diseases.
Researchers analyzed the ability of three different types of milk – breast milk, cow's milk, and artificial formula – to increase intestinal permeability to nanoparticles and macromolecules, which could allow for the future ingestion of RNA vaccines and drugs.

A new proposal: to give artificial intelligence a license to practice medicine

One of the most respected medical journals in the world published an article with an unusual proposal: to approve artificial intelligence in a way similar to the approval process that human doctors go through. Or in other words: to grant artificial intelligence a license to practice medicine for another
