The presentation will cover present challenges in Swedish primary care today, and the potential gains or disadvantages of artificial intelligence (AI). While med-tech companies are developing new technologies at a fast pace, the GPs are struggling with a fragmented health care system and complex patients with increasing care needs. Will AI- tools be beneficial in decision-making or create new care demands, and is the evidence keeping pace with the implementation?
