Report by Sustainable Market Strategies

The Sustainable Market Strategies team’s latest report examines the impact of AI in healthcare, which is growing at a rapid pace but is bringing about significant cause for concern. One major issue is bias, with AI risking exacerbating existing health disparities when trained on data that lack diversity. There are also worries around safety, privacy and security, loss of personal interaction and job displacement. As it stands, regulation of AI in healthcare is very limited, but this will grow over time. The companies that will be best positioned for the future will be those that proactively engage with regulators to shape effective and fair AI policies. Although concerns are valid, the healthcare sector stands to benefit the most positively from AI. Potential winners include Sysmex, Fresenius, Hologic and Intuitive Surgical.
