Teaming humans with start-up Unanimous AI’s technology diagnosed pneumonia more accurately than a team of radiologists working independently, a study conducted with the Stanford University School of Medicine has found. Overall, the system reduced errors by 33%. Unanimous AI’s platform uses artificial swarm intelligence, which replicates and enhances the biological phenomenon in which groups of organisms amplify their intellect by forming real-time systems. The company had human participants use the platform while algorithms processed their behaviour. The radiologists achieved 73% diagnostic accuracy, compared to human experts' 82% accuracy.
