Artificial intelligence (AI) has vast potential in healthcare beyond automating tasks. Color Health is collaborating with OpenAI to leverage AI in cancer care. Their focus is on risk-adjusted screening and pre-treatment workup to enhance clinician expertise rather than automate administrative tasks. AI can improve risk-adjusted screening by applying guidelines consistently and accurately for high-risk individuals. It can also streamline the pre-treatment workup, ensuring all necessary tests and preparations are completed promptly.

Integrating AI into healthcare is about augmenting clinicians' capabilities, allowing them to make more informed decisions quickly. AI acts as a co-pilot, providing clinicians with analyses and recommendations while human decision-making remains paramount. This cultural shift towards proactive measures, driven by AI, can significantly impact cancer outcomes, addressing logistical issues like follow-up care and better coordination among healthcare providers. Overall, AI can streamline and improve the cancer care journey.
