Understanding Artificial Intelligence as an Innovation in Digital Healthcare

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a technology that is currently spreading worldwide. The main purpose of AI is to simplify and assist human affairs or work quickly, such as analyzing data, making decisions, triggering innovation, and many other applications in our daily lives. One field that currently significantly utilizes the development of AI is health education. Health education itself is an effort to increase public knowledge or awareness and behavior regarding health. Through health education, the public is encouraged to understand the importance of health in their own lives. The purpose of this paper is to review the extent of the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in supporting health education programs, particularly in the technology of disseminating information that is fast, accurate, and easily accessible to the public. The method used in this research is a quantitative descriptive approach through a questionnaire distributed online using Google Forms. The questionnaire contained 10 questions designed to explore respondents’ opinions on the role of AI in improving healthcare services. The application of AI also faces challenges in the form of ethical aspects, data security, regulatory limitations, and the readiness of medical personnel to adopt this technology. Thus, AI has great potential in strengthening health education and improving the quality of life of the community.
