Summary
Neurosurgeons have the privilege of peeking inside the most precious and the most mysterious device on earth: the human brain. The human brain is also the most expensive device on earth given that mental health problems constitute the largest health care cost. By deciphering the inner secrets of brain computations, scientists and engineers have taken inspiration to develop smart artificial intelligence(AI) algorithms. These AI algorithms in turn provide much help to understanding brain function and to multiple applications in brain disorders, including neurosurgery.
