Abstract: <\/strong><\/span><\/p>

This talk explores the integral role of artificial intelligence in reshaping healthcare,\nwith a focus on both current implementations and prospects. Through diverse case\nstudies — ranging from skin lesion detection and DNA profiling to managing\nhealthcare during COVID-19 through data analysis — we illustrate AI’s transformative\nimpact. We discuss real-world applications including detecting diseases through\nsocial media in Saudi Arabia and developing cloud and edge-enabled healthcare\nsystems. The discussion extends to tackling psychological health issues and education\nchallenges during the pandemic. Conclusively, we will discuss healthcare challenges,\ntrends, and the future, exploring emerging trends such as precision medicine, digital\nhealth, and healthcare interoperability, while addressing regulatory and ethical\nconsiderations and the increasing importance of global health initiatives. We\nemphasize the future landscape of AI in healthcare, highlighting the critical role of\nsustainable healthcare practices, advancements in regenerative medicine, and the\nneed for effective patient empowerment and engagement strategies, particularly in\naddressing the challenges of an aging population.<\/span><\/p>\n
