Abstract
In this chapter you will learn a lot about the different fields of application for AI in the healthcare sector. It starts with a comprehensive evaluation of health data to increase the quality of diagnosis. The use of Artificial Intelligence can also lead to a relief of routine tasks in health care—so that doctors and nursing staff can spend more time with patients. Artificial Intelligence can also make a significant contribution to closing the strategic qualification gap in training and further education. In addition to the technical infrastructure, this requires in particular the education of the lecturers themselves; because their knowledge is also becoming outdated faster and faster. A larger field of AI applications is already available in companies through applications of virtual reality and augmented reality. Artificial Intelligence can also provide support in HR management—e.g. in the acquisition of new employees. Online platforms can help to bring together supply and demand here.
