2. Electronic health records (EHRs): AI is adopted to analyze EHR data and find trends and patterns, which assist physicians make more accurate diagnosis and treatment decisions. In a recent discovery of (Bills et al., 2023), GPT-4 was adopted to write, stimulate, and score auto-explanations for the behavior of 307,200 neurons in large language models. Also, (Rajkomar et al., 2018) demonstrated that an AI model could predict patient death using EHR data with 90% accuracy.

3. Drug Discovery: AI is employed to evaluate massive datasets to find possible drugs contenders, speeding up drugs identification. (Stokes et al., 2020) used AI to discover a novel antibiotic that was efficient over drug-resistant bacteria.

4. Customized medicine: AI is also used for analyzing patient data to define customized treatment procedures based on personal characteristics such as genetics, lifestyle, and medical history. (Meng et al., 2019) mentioned in their research that an AI logarithm could identify which heart failure patients were most likely to benefit from a particular treatment.

5. Virtual assistants: AI-powered chatbots were used by (Nekhlyudov et al., 2014) to offer customized health information and advice to patients, hence improving their engagement and lowering costs related to healthcare . With reference to Lee et al. (2020), Virtual assistants were capable of properly answering 71% of patient inquiries about their drugs.
