How AI is Revolutionizing Healthcare: Insights from Dr. Jose Morey

Dr. Jose Morey is a radiologist at Eastern Virginia Medical School who has been an AI consultant at high-profile organizations such as the White House Office of Science and Technology and the United Nations, in addition to NASA initiatives. 

Dr. Morey is at the forefront of revolutionizing healthcare using artificial intelligence (AI). Picture this: AI performing surgeries, predicting health trends, and streamlining administrative tasks. The impact is astounding, with neonatal ICUs seeing up to a 20% decrease in death rates thanks to machine learning. 

Despite the potential of AI, Morey emphasizes that humans still need to be involved in the process. As he warns, “if you have biased data, you could have a biased AI output, and that’s something you have to be aware of.” Despite the challenges posed by AI, Morey remains enthusiastic. “AI has a lot of potential,” he said, “1,000%. And it’s doing a lot of good.”
