Human Gut Microbiome Can Predict Cholera Outbreaks with AI Assistance

Before artificial intelligence (AI) becomes sentient and seeks to destroy all humans, advanced computer systems can be utilized in various ways to help thwart potential outbreaks of deadly infectious diseases. This is exactly what a team of investigators from Duke University, Massachusetts General Hospital, and the International Centre for Diarrheal Disease Research in Dhaka, Bangladesh, have accomplished by using machine learning algorithms to spot patterns within communities of bacteria living
