What is Artificial Intelligence?
At its core, Artificial Intelligence is the attempt for computers to mimic the human decision-making and problem-solving skills that we use every day but from an analytical and rational point of view. AI is most often broken into two separate types that perform specific functions: Weak AI and Strong AI.
Weak, or Narrow, AI is the type of AI that we use most often in our modern world. While it is categorized as “weak,” this type of AI is far from lacking strength. It is the type of Artificial Intelligence that drives most of the applications that we use today such as Siri from Apple, self-driving vehicle programs, and the AI of the ARTAS iX Robotic Hair Restoration System.
The other type, Strong AI or Artificial Super Intelligence (ASI), on the other hand, is still considered theoretical. This type of AI is the kind that is most often depicted in media and is categorized as AI that is able to think on par with or above the ability of the human brain.
Application of Artificial Intelligence
Within the category of Weak AI, some common forms are used in our day to day lives for real-world applications:
- Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) – Most commonly known as speech-to-text, is the process of systems converting human speech into text. Often seen when conducting voices searches, mobile devices use this type of AI for several purposes.
- Customer Service – Many online customer service interactions now take place through some sort of Artificial Intelligence program. Virtual customer service representatives are able to answer commonly asked questions or direct customers toward the right solution through applications like Facebook Messenger.
- Computer Vision – Through images, videos, and other visual inputs, Artificial Intelligence systems can gather meaningful information and then take proper action. This technology is the kind of AI that is most commonly used in self-driving cars and the robotic hair restoration treatment associated with the ARTAS iX Robotic Hair Restoration System.
How Does AI Improve Hair Transplant Procedures?
Artificial Intelligence, and the introduction of the ARTAS iX Hair Restoration System, have changed the face of modern hair restoration procedures. By using computer vision programs, this technology can assist hair restoration surgeons in finding the optimal donor follicles in patients, safely extracting them from the scalp, and then accurately implanting them in the transplant area. By working side-by-side, an experienced surgeon and the AI in the ARTAS iX Robotic Hair Restoration System are able to craft new, custom hairlines using only the healthiest follicles, while also protecting the hair follicles in the surrounding area.
In the past, surgical hair transplants often meant high costs, long procedure and recovery times, and with the Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) method, a linear scar on the back of the scalp. Through the power of Artificial Intelligence and an experienced hand, Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) procedures can be conducted in a more precise, timely, and cost-effective manner.
What is the best part of using AI for hair transplant procedures? The results help patients look and feel their best with minimal downtime. This robotic hair restoration procedure guarantees fuller, natural hair growth results without leaving a linear scar on the scalp.
