Demystifying the Ph.D. in AI: Journey, Challenges, and Innovations in the Medical Field

Welcome to this special episode of the What’s AI podcast. Today, it’s just you and me, no guests. For the new listeners, my name is Louis Bouchard, and I am currently doing a PhD in AI at Polytechnique Montreal and Mila. I wanted to take the time to talk about what I am doing: my Ph.D. in artificial intelligence. This episode is for you whether you are thinking of doing a Ph.D. or simply if you are curious and want to learn more about what’s it like to do a Ph.D. and do research in artificial intelligence. I wanted to demystify a bit what it is, what it looks like, or at least, in my case, in biomedical engineering. In this episode, I will cover my personal experience with the Ph.D. in general, doing research in AI, the challenges and reasons for doing a Ph.D., and more about how I’m using AI to help the medical field.
