A boy in the U.S. suffered chronic pain for three years. He saw 17 different doctors and still had no diagnosis. In desperation, his mother typed his symptoms into an AI chatbot.

It sounds like science fiction: an artificial intelligence succeeding where human experts failed. But this real-world case is a striking sign of how AI is beginning to transform medical diagnostics. From reading X-rays and CT scans to spotting elusive rare diseases, these “superhuman doctors made of code” are rapidly becoming trusted partners in healthcare.
