Abstract
Virtually all areas of biomedicine will be increasingly affected by applications of artificial intelligence (AI). We discuss how AI may affect fields of medical genetics, including both clinicians and laboratorians. In addition to reviewing the anticipated impact, we provide recommendations for ways in which these groups may want to evolve in light of the influence of AI. We also briefly discuss how educational and training programs can play a key role in preparing the future workforce given these anticipated changes.
