René Haas, the chief executive of Arm Holdings, has said that artificial intelligence could help scientists find ways to cure cancer in the future. Arm Holdings is a large company in the United Kingdom that designs computer chips for devices like smartphones and computers. Haas explained that current computers are not good enough to study the complex links between DNA and cancer, but he believes new AI technologies will soon be able to help.

Haas made these comments because scientists are starting to use artificial intelligence in cancer research and hospital tests. For example, earlier this year in the UK, the National Health Service (NHS) used AI to help over four million patients get faster results from lung X-rays. Haas thinks that as computer power grows, these systems will be able to study more data and solve problems much faster than before.

The main result of this prediction is that people are now more hopeful that AI could bring big changes in medicine in the future. However, AI has not found a cure yet. Cancer is still a difficult group of diseases, and experts say new treatments will need a lot of testing before they are safe for everyone.
