“Artificial Intelligence Models Identify Alzheimer’s Cognitive Decline”

Artificial Intelligence Models Identify Alzheimer’s Cognitive Decline,” by Jessica Kent, Health IT Analytics

“A team from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has developed artificial intelligence tools to determine whether patients at high risk for Alzheimer’s disease will experience cognitive decline. The algorithm was able to predict patient cognition test scores up to two years in the future.”

LTC Comment (from Stephen A. Moses, President, Center for Long-Term Care Reform):

Algorithms make better diagnoses than medical doctors. Why shouldn’t they predict Alzheimer’s?
