Abstract
Abstract Germany, renowned for its robust healthcare system, finds itself at the early stages of AI integration. This is a reality for many European countries, emphasizing that, despite general technological prowess, AI adoption remains in its absolute infancy. However, in Germany there are areas where AI shows promise, notably in fields like radiology. Beyond such niche applications though, Germany grapples with a significant challenge - the scarcity of robust data essential for meaningful AI utilization, particularly in the realm of public health. While these insights are specific to the German context, understanding the intricate hurdles impeding widespread AI implementation is a meaningful takeaway for countries around the world. In order to effectively leverage new technologies, there is an acute need for advancements in data infrastructure and governance to unlock the full potential of AI in healthcare. Overcoming barriers and charting a path towards a future where AI serves as a transformative force in German healthcare, could one day lead to enhanced system efficiencies and patient experiences, but for now we have to be thoughtful about the realities of implementing AI within current existing health system infrastructure.
