Abstract

Artificial intelligence and robotics are still relatively new and being introduced, although they have been making headway into the healthcare industry. Over time, there have been many improvements, constant updates, and changes to better the technology. There are many different ways this technology has been introduced and implemented into the industry. These innovations are not within one country, but throughout the world. A large concern with this level of technology is that humans will not be needed. However, caregivers are important in providing a connection with patients as well as running the technology. Patients and caregivers differ in their views of this technology. This paper discusses the current literature on these innovations, the benefits and ethical considerations involved with this technology, and the many advancements to come.
