Sanjay Budhdeo, MD, PhD Candidate, National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery & University College London, London, UK, provides an insight into the potential application of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine and, more specifically, neurology. AI may be the big transformation many experts and clinicians are hoping for to improve neurologic care, with the potential to improve diagnostics, automate treatment decisions using digitized health records, streamline clinical operations, and improve research and development. However, AI also comes with a range of challenges and barriers to implementation, which must be appropriately addressed. Dr Budhdeo highlights some of the ‘push and pull’ factors associated with AI in medicine, which include technology-based factors, cost-based factors, and improved personalization of care. He also discusses the various data biases that arise and must be combated and emphasizes the critical need to ensure data security and privacy are maintained. This interview took place at the 18th Annual Congress on Controversies in Neurology (CONy 2024) in London, UK.
