AI in healthcare: for better or for worse?
AI is forecasted to increase the region’s GDP greater than 5% by 2030. The report titled “Seizing the opportunity the future of AI in latin America” has a special focus on Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, and Mexico.
Need a cheap remedy to fight COVID-19?

What Hispanics think of using AI in healthcare and medicine
AI is creeping into our lives, including medical research and provider care. But, what do Hispanics think of using AI in health and medicine?
