The paradox of artificial intelligence (AI) and narrative-based medicine: challenges and potential for enhanced patient care

Abstract

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into healthcare has transformed patient care through advanced diagnostics, personalized treatment plans, and predictive analytics. However, this technological evolution presents a paradox when juxtaposed with narrative-based medicine (NBM), which emphasizes the patient’s story and human experience in healthcare delivery. The integration of AI into the NBM raises questions regarding its clinical applicability, resistance from patients and physicians, emotional considerations, time constraints, and ability to balance psychosocial and biomedical care. This critical review explores the challenges and potential of combining AI with NBM, aiming to enhance patient care by leveraging the strengths of both approaches.
