Abstract

In recent decades, artificial intelligence (AI) has infiltrated a variety of domains, including media, education, and medicine. There exists no glossary, lexicon, or reference for the uninitiated medical professional to explore the new terminology. As AI-driven technologies and applications become more available for clinical use in healthcare settings, an understanding of basic components, models, and tasks related to AI is crucial for clinical and academic appraisal. Here, we present a glossary of AI definitions that healthcare professionals can utilize to augment personal understanding of AI during this fourth industrial revolution. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level V, expert opinion.
