Ahead of [Intelligent Health UK](https://london.intelligenthealth.ai/) (24-25 May 2023, ExCeL London), we asked Ana Ribeiro, AI Transformation Lead at The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust her thoughts on the future of AI in healthcare.

 

**If you could solve any global health problem in the world with AI, what would it be?**

Precision medicine - tailored treatment to the patient as a whole.

 

**How do you think AI will make its biggest mark in healthcare in the next 5 years? 10 years? 20 years?**

 

Integrated diagnostics - a total and holistic view of a patient's health. with increasing granularity over the years with advances in tech and AI.

**What excites you most about the application of AI in healthcare?**

 

Allowing for knowledge and equal opportunities to be accessible to all - patients and healthcare professionals.

 

 

 

What’s your biggest fear in relation to the application of AI in the health/medicine field?

 

Healthcare professionals will lose the critical thinking and the human touch - we will prefer to hide under the big AI umbrella.

 

**How do you think AI will cause human contact in healthcare to change in the future?**

 

That is THE question: will AI give us the time for human interaction or will we hide behind AI so we have less human interaction. remains to be seen, but innovators and champions play a key role to shape how AI will be used.

 

**What does AI mean for the skill requirements of health professionals? How will it change?**

 

AI doesn't mean a lot for many people yet - and that is what needs changing. Education and opportunities need to become widely available to transform healthcare.

 

**Why did you choose to present at Intelligent Health?**

Like minded individuals - innovators.

 

**What are your personal goals from the summit?**

 

Learn from others - learn from the experience of others and their successes and mistakes. Learn about new technologies and how they are innovating healthcare

 

We cannot wait to see Ana at [Intelligent Health UK](https://london.intelligenthealth.ai/) on 24th-25th May in London!
