Today's Poll
Poll Description
A recent Pew Research Center survey found that Americans have mixed feelings about healthcare providers' use of artificial intelligence.
Their research showed that about 60% of U.S. adults reported they would feel uncomfortable if their health provider relied on AI for diagnosing diseases and recommending treatments.
However, according to the same survey, more Americans (40%) think using AI in health and medicine would reduce health provider mistakes, while 27% believe it would increase mistakes.
The questions come as AI is being used throughout Connecticut’s healthcare industry to evaluate strokes, detect tumors, develop drugs and help medical providers with mundane tasks so they can focus on critical patient care.
