Abstract

This piece aims to explore the applications, implications, and drawbacks of utilizing artificial intelligence in medical publications. In order to use AI, we must first understand the extent to which it may affect medical publications as a whole. While AI can be used to generate a wealth of information faster than we as humans can, that data may contain gaps, such as a lack of representation of different groups of people, as well as access to medical records left in said database. The different applications, implications, and drawbacks of artificial intelligence in medical publications, afford us the ability to adapt to such a science and cultivate it in a way that benefits both the general public and the medical world.
