I've had AI-assisted mammograms for years. From what I understand, they can quickly and accurately detect a "clean" mammogram, leaving the humans to look at scans that are questionable. They're supposedly also very good at detecting early stage cancers. I think it's a great advancement, personally--at least the way it's being used with mammograms.
