Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Artificial intelligence (AI) is the ability of a computer machine to display human capabilities such as reasoning, learning, planning, and creativity. Such processing technology receives the data (already prepared or collected), processes them, using models and algorithms, and answers questions about forecasting and decision-making. AI systems are also able to adapt their behavior by analyzing the effects of previous actions and working then autonomously. Artificial intelligence is already present in our lives, even if it often goes unnoticed (shopping networked, home automation, vehicles). Even in the medical field, artificial intelligence can be used to analyze large amounts of medical data and discover matches and patterns to improve diagnosis and prevention. In forensic medicine, the applications of AI are numerous and are becoming more and more valuable.
