AI TB

"I haven’t finished the book yet, but so far I love how the author interconnected everything with tuberculosis. In a deeper insight, applying the knowledge to AI would help illustrate the real impacts of TB today. Does TB remains a silent disease despite our utilization of AI?"

TB is still a serious often neglected disease
