AI predicted direction of coronavirus' spread: experts

Artificial Intelligence Algorithms (AI) predicted one week in advance that the greatest risk of coronavirus infection outside China is Thailand, South Korea, Japan, and Taiwan, experts from the Polish Economic Institute (PIE) said.

“Algorithms using artificial intelligence solutions identified the onset of the coronavirus epidemic a few days earlier than reported in official information from international organizations such as WHO or the American Epidemiological Agency,” PIE experts highlighted

As PIE pointed out, citing Accenture data, the value of the market of artificial intelligence used in healthcare in 2021 could be over $6 billion. It has been added that 94 start-ups operating in the health industry have been created in Poland in the last 10 years (over 5,000 throughout Europe).
