3. Artificial Intelligence
“..to find how to make machines…solve kinds of problems now
reserved for humans…(1955)
Artificial intelligence is intelligence exhibited by machines.In
computer science, an ideal "intelligent" machine is a flexible
rational agent that perceives its environment and takes
actions that maximize its chance of success at some goal.

5. AI Winter?
• AI winter is the most productive time in the AI history.
• The AI winter is primarily a collapse in the perception of AI by
government bureaucrats and venture capitalists. Despite the
rise and fall of AI's reputation, it has continued to develop
new and successful technologies.

6. Notable quote
“There have been concerns about the long-term prospect
that we lose control of certain kinds of intelligences. I
fundamentally don’t think that’s going to happen. I think that we
will be very proactive in terms of how we field AI systems, and
that in the end we’ll be able to get incredible benefits from
machine intelligence in all realms of life, from science to
education to economics to daily life”

16. Readmission Challenge
~ 20% within 30 days
~ 35% in 90 days
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services(CMS) considers
that 40%-75% of these readmissions can be prevented

17. Preventable Errors and Deaths
44,000 - 98,000 per year - Institute of Medicine, 1999
440, 000 per year - Journal of Patient Safety, 2013
New research estimates up to 440,000 Americans are dying
annually from preventable hospital errors. This puts medical
errors as the third leading cause of death in USA
