In this paper, I have described the healthcare problem (maldistribution of doctors) in India. Later, I have introduced the concept of artificial intelligence (AI) and I have described AI technology with various examples, how it is rapidly changing the healthcare scenario across the world. I have also described the various advantages of artificial intelligence technology. At the end of the paper, I have raised some serious concerns regarding complete replacement of human based healthcare technology with artificial intelligence technology. I concluded that there is not the slightest question that AI will influence the future. People must be innovative, insightful, and context-aware for AI to work. This is because humans will continue to contribute value that cannot be reproduced by robots.
