Genesis AI Healthcare said Tuesday that its vice chairman, Kang Si Cheol, was appointed an artificial intelligence technology adviser to Seoul Medical Center on Monday. The company said the move is aimed at accelerating AI-driven medical innovation and helping the public hospital lead digital transformation.
Kang, an AI medicine scholar and practitioner, has written books spanning theory and practice, including "AI Big History: 10 Wins Out of 22," "Artificial Intelligence Networks and Super Business," "Disruption," "An Era Comes When Even Aging Is Designed," "Hippocrates Meets Turing: The Age of AI Medicine" and "AI MBA."
His recent titles, "Universal Concierge Medicine for a National Primary Doctor," "AI Translates the Human Body" and "AI Medical Management," have been described as essential reading on the present and future of AI medicine.
During his two-year term, Kang is expected to provide strategic advice on digital innovation projects, including adopting Seoul Medical Center’s AI medical management solutions, building a medical AI platform, and advancing AI-based diagnosis and treatment systems.
Seoul Medical Center said it plans to use the appointment to develop a model case for AI innovation in public health care and to explore ways to improve service quality and operational efficiency.
Kang said, "I will do my best so that AI technology can create real value in the public health care field together with Seoul Medical Center," adding that he will "build a virtuous cycle that strengthens medical staff capabilities and improves citizens’ health."
