Google is currently trialing an AI chatbot specialised in medical diagnosis in several American clinics. The aim is to quickly guide patients and answer questions about their symptoms. The technology in no way replaces doctors, but it can assist them in establishing a diagnosis.

Artificial intelligence continues to make inroads into the medical world, as demonstrated by an experiment conducted by Google at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. The Med-PaLM-2 chatbot has been designed to answer medical questions and suggest a diagnosis based on various symptoms. In addition, the AI chatbot can perform more administrative tasks, such as organizing data or summarizing a patient's medical file. The study of X-rays is already stated as a future goal.
