  • While the COVID-19 threat continues to grip the
    world and people are falling prey to this
    invisible enemy, AI has come up with a tool that
    will help in finding out the severity of the
    patients suffering from this disease. Artificial
    Intelligence has been around for quite some time,
    but it's only recently that we have seen a
    growing inclination towards its implementation in
    different walks of life. The ever increasing
    demand for artificial intelligence training and
    artificial intelligence certification courses is
    an indication of how important this technology
    is.
  • It is said that the data is the king, and if used
    properly, it can be very profitable. The same
    concept is being used by one of the AI companies
    to assess COVID-19 patients and find the severity
    of the case. In this blog, we will find out about
    how AI can come as a helpful tool in combating
    COVID-19.

What's The Latest Development?
  • COVID-19 has brought a lot of sadness around us,
    while the number of patients is increasing at a
    breakneck pace the facilities to cure them are
    not sufficient. In such a case, the biggest
    challenge for everyone is to find out and assess
    which patient needs what kind of healthcare
    treatment and what is the seriousness of their
    case.
  • Computer scientists at the University of
    Copenhagen are developing a computer model that
    is AI-enabled. These models are equipped to
    assess the risk of an individual patient's need
    for a ventilator or ICU. This study is being done
    in association with Rigshospitalet and Bispebjerg
    Hospital.

4
How Does This Tool Work?
  • The primary objective of this to help the
    hospitals find out which patients can be sent
    home and who all need beds and breathing
    equipment. The tool made use of data on 53
    patients from two hospitals in China who were
    tested positive for COVID-19 in January.
  • ARDS is a condition wherein the lungs get
    infected by a severe infection like pneumonia,
    and the body organs don't get enough oxygen. In
    this condition, the fluid leaks into the air sacs
    of the lungs, thus making breathing difficult.
  • With the help of the AI tool, the data of the
    previous patients would be useful for creating a
    meaningful interpretation that will eventually
    help in interpreting the condition of the
    patient.

  • While the work is going on to assess how fruitful
    this tool can be for the prediction of the
    severity patient, it will be really helpful for
    those who are looking for medical assistance and
    whether or not they would need a ventilator or
    not. With the help of this tool, it will become
    easier for healthcare professionals to manage the
    resources so that the optimum allocation of
    medical aid can be done.
  • This is just one of the applications of AI in
    real-life. In the times to come, AI will find
    many such uses across different spectrums of
    life. When we are talking about AI, then it
    becomes important to mention that this is also a
    lucrative career option.

The Future Of Artificial Intelligence
  • Artificial intelligence training and artificial
    intelligence course are not just a career option
    rather, many companies are also looking for
    hiring individuals who have knowledge about this
    technology and its implementation.
  • Employers and employees alike feel the importance
    of technical skills for the future. It's not just
    about those who have completed formal education
    in AI, who want to go for upskilling themselves
    for artificial intelligence training, but at the
    same time, many individuals with unaffiliated
    tech jobs are taking up a certification course in
    Artificial Intelligence that will likely improve
    their job prospects. To help learners decide what
    kind of course would help them grow
    professionally, Global Tech Council brings
    certification courses in Artificial Intelligence.
    This artificial intelligence training module
    prepared by them consists of all the concepts of
    AI, its use cases, and practical implication.

Conclusion
  • Artificial Intelligence is one of the most
    influencing technologies of the modern-day it is
    the hottest skills desired by companies who are
    working in this domain. The above-mentioned use
    of AI is just one of the many examples where AI
    can prove to be beneficial for humanity.
  • If you are planning to make a career in this
    field, and are willing to find a well-paying job,
    artificial intelligent certification will be a
    great tool for the same. It is expected that by
    2022 AI will create 58 million new jobs, so you
    can assume how much opportunity this technology
    holds for you. There is no better time than today
    to join the online certificate course in
    Artificial Training and let your professional
    graph grow.
