Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been one of the most debated topics of present times as it is transforming nature in almost every aspect. The challenge is to decide whether it will make the planet a better place to live or it will push the human race towards disaster. The seed of AI was sown during the 1950s and continues to hold great future potential. Different policies had been laid down by the government for the ethical use of robots. The chapter gives a glimpse of AI policies in India. The chapter also enumerates the correlation between natural intelligence and software through various software languages like natural language processing, etc. It explains how this interaction between robots and natural intelligence has brought about widespread application. Robots can be used as scientists, nannies, pets, assist doctors in surgery, for cleaning, to provide security, to be used in pharmacies for automated dispensing systems, act as a virtual human body to predict how it will react to new therapeutic drugs, make drug development and drug delivery faster, etc. The policies regarding these robots are made so that they are not misused as their application is increasing day by day. This chapter also enumerates a lot about future aspects of artificial intelligence in traditional medicine.
