31 October 2020. In the third quarter of 2020, worldwide investments in artificial intelligence applications in health care rose to a new high, $2.1 billion. Those findings appear in a new report from technology market research company CB Insights, State Of Healthcare Q3\u201920<\/a> (registration required), and in this weekend’s infographic.<\/p>\n

In this group, CB Insights includes equity investments in companies developing products using A.I. in health care, as well as companies selling A.I. as a service in health care.
