Diary entries written during that time by Lord Vallance, then the UK's chief scientific adviser, revealed officials "always want[ed] to go for stick, not carrot".
Prof Nakata said the technology "could be a transformative change in organisations across the UK".He said AI could "simplify complex tasks, take away the boring jobs, and enable workers to have more time to focus on the things that really matter".
"But that's just the tip of the iceberg; it could prove to be a solution that not only helps businesses thrive but improves work satisfaction for employees," he added.Robots for training carers, sensors that monitor people as they sleep and an app that can detect if someone is in pain - could this be the future of care?The care sector is increasingly using technology and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to look after the UK's ever-growing elderly population.
Despite this, experts have urged people to consider the potential risks of an overreliance on AI in the industry."AI can only be part of the solution but not the whole solution," says Dr Caroline Green from the University of Oxford.
Dr Green, the director of research at the Institute for Ethics in AI, spoke at an AI in Social Care Summit at the university in March.
She highlighted how AI systems could be susceptible to biases, which amplify discrimination, prejudice and stereotyping and has also recognised the worries people have around sharing their personal data with the technology."Nobody can move out and we can't receive any cases from outside the hospital," Dr Mohammed Salha said.
He added that there was a quadcopter drone "shooting in the surroundings of the hospital and the outdoor area of the hospital"."We also hear shooting from the tanks... maybe 400 or 500 metres [away]."
Israel Defense Forces (IDF) told the BBC that it was "operating in the area against terror targets", but that it was "not aware of any siege on the hospital itself".Dr Tedros said: "Even if health facilities are not attacked or forced to evacuate, hostilities and military presence obstruct patients and staff from accessing care, and WHO from resupplying hospitals, which can quickly make them non-functional."
