Abstract :
The article looks at how AI is helping researchers to create tools to help doctors make better diagnoses, gather enhanced information from medical tests, improve their surgery and examination skills, and more quickly make relevant biomedical discoveries. It also discusses how personal computers are no longer simply work tools. They now store the intermingled memories of our personal and professional lives in gigabytes of photos, emails, calendars, documents, videos, and so on. A small cadre of researchers is beginning to tap these digital stores through life annotation, enabling us to search our own PCs the way we search the Web
