Perspectives on the Current and Future State of Artificial Intelligence in Medical Genetics

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming numerous aspects of daily life, including clinical practice and biomedical research. In light of this rapid transformation, and in the context of medical genetics, we assembled a group of leaders in the field to respond to the question about how AI is affecting, and especially how AI will affect, medical genetics. The authors who contributed to this collection of essays intentionally represent different areas of expertise, career stages, and geographies, and include diverse types of clinicians, computer scientists, and researchers. The individual pieces cover a wide range of areas related to medical genetics; we expect that these pieces may provide helpful windows into the ways in which AI is being actively studied, used, and considered in medical genetics.
