The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into the medical sector has raised myriad ethics questions: who does the intellectual property if an AI machine proposes a new drug? Shall a practitioner reveal to the patients the potential diseases they are expected to develop based on AI predictions? etc. Along with the description of numerous applications of AI in medicine, ethical considerations and future perspectives of the integration of AI in the health sector will be discussed in this talk.
