Description

The chapter explores the transformative impact of generative AI and large language models (LLMs) in healthcare, emphasizing their potential to revolutionize patient care, clinical operations, and medical research. Generative AI, a subset of artificial intelligence, offers groundbreaking capabilities such as personalized medicine, virtual health assistants, and enhanced diagnostic accuracy. LLMs like Med-PaLM and BioBERT are fine-tuned to perform specific healthcare tasks, such as clinical note summarization and diagnostic support. These models also assist in drug discovery, clinical trials, and pandemic preparedness by analyzing complex medical data and predicting patient outcomes with high accuracy. The chapter also addresses the ethical and regulatory considerations associated with AI in healthcare, including data privacy, bias, and accountability. While the integration of AI technologies promises significant advancements, it also requires stringent regulatory oversight to ensure safety, efficacy, and fairness. The potential of generative AI to generate synthetic medical data offers a secure way to advance research without compromising patient privacy. Additionally, AI can optimize healthcare processes, enhance patient engagement, and accelerate medical research, contributing to a more efficient and personalized healthcare system. The chapter concludes by highlighting the need for continuous collaboration between AI developers, healthcare professionals, and regulators to maximize the benefits of these technologies while addressing the associated risks. 2025 selection and editorial matter, Sakshi Gupta, Umesh Gupta, Moolchand Sharma, Kamal Malik; individual chapters, the contributors.
