Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is generally defined as the development of computer systems or machines that can perform tasks typically requiring human intelligence and is increasingly being used in modern healthcare. While, various AI systems have existed for decades, its scale in healthcare has been escalated by global crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic and military conflicts, which has demanded rapid implementation of health system processes that improve efficiency in resource constrained environments. As AI-enabled technologies gain prominence, it is vital for surgeons to understand the various types of AI systems and their applications in medical practice.
