Digitization in laboratory field<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I work in a laboratory in the health care sector. I qualified as a medical laboratory scientist ten years ago. I changed my job as a nurse to the laboratory world. A lot has happened in the laboratory field in the past ten years. Analytics and information systems have developed during my career accelerating analytical processes in the laboratory. Over the next ten years, the development of the laboratory field will probably be even faster. <\/p>\n\n\n

I think that in the future robotics will increase in my field so that blood cell identification is fully automated so that an ordinary laboratory worker no longer needs to look at a microscope. I also suspect that blood tests will decrease significantly in the future. I think that in the future patients will be monitored in hospitals with microchips so that blood analysts can be examined using a chip. I believe that in the future the laboratory will be the custodian of different types of information. Robotics identifies and stores information and the laboratory is the place where information is stored. Laboratory workers are users and intermediaries of information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cukier (2014) said that humans have a responsibility to use information in such a way that humans are the masters of information use and not the servant. Understanding the collected information is important because we can understand the world and our place in it better. I think that this is so true and important lesson to understand that we know how to use all the information that we get from different places so that we don\u00b4t forget humanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Technology is developing faster than we understand and its impact on humans must be recognized so that technology does not make us redundant. The power of information and technology is dangerous because it can change our everyday lives so that we are just passengers. Hopefully it will not come to that – that technology leads us. I would like to see all professions in our society when I\u00b4m old such as taxi drivers, store cashiers, cleaners and laboratory workers behind a microscope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GDPR came to save us<\/em><\/strong> ?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

GDPR was created to protect an individual’s personal data and it also provides rights to the individual. The rights include finding out what information is being collected about them, and it is possible for everyone to request access to their own information. The GDPR regulation obliges companies of all sizes to take responsibility for the processing of personal data regarding data documentation and personal data processing.<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Above is a brief description of what the EU data protection regulation contains. If this regulation did not exist, the individual’s position in terms of data protection would be significantly weaker. Regulations and laws would not be needed if all people acted ethically correctly in the world. Among us there are always those who do not operate on an honest basis, especially on the internet. So we need laws and regulations in society so that the legal basis is preserved in terms of data protection. We are living in an era of technological revolution, and the advancement of technology requires new regulations alongside it in order to be able to protect the individual as information increases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my personal life, with the introduction of GDPR, I have noticed that I fill out more data protection forms than before. When I do business with a dentist or beautician, I notice that I am filling out a permit for storing my data. I am grateful that people have taken data protection matters seriously. I can’t say what negative data protection regulation could bring, other than more work for entrepreneurs in that they have to have things handled in accordance with the regulations, but that’s how it should have been in the first place? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chat GPT gives wider perspective <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I started YAMK studies two years ago and before this I had not used chat GPT. At first I downloaded the app out of curiosity and laughed at the use of artificial intelligence. One day I was writing an essay and I couldn’t move forward in my writing because the topic was hard to internalizes. I remembered that I have chat GPT on my phone. I wrote a question related to my essay and I got answer. Chat GPT offered many different perspectives on my essay topic. My eyes were opened to the use of artificial intelligence because it enables a broader view of things. My field of vision expanded in an instant when the artificial intelligence presented its view on the subject. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I only use chat GPT when my own thoughts no longer bring a new perspective on the subject. I want to challenge my own thinking, but artificial intelligence offers a continuation when my own thinking runs out. <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

On of the tasks was to ask chat GPT a question. I asked what kind of bacteria Staphylococcus aureus is. In response, I got the shape and characteristics and appearance of bacteria. The answer also told what kind of infections it can cause and the ways of infection. Medicines that affect the bacteria were also introduced. The answer also revealed the diagnostics used to identify the bacteria. The answer was good and very comprehensive and correct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A possible problem with the answer is that too much information can cause to a non professional people too much knowledge. The possibility of misunderstanding the information is great and causes unnecessary stress. When using artificial intelligence, one must be responsible and question the information they receive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artificial intelligence offers a lot of good if you just remember to keep yourself alert and question what you read. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Self evaluation<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I learned that I know very little about digitization. It was very meaningful to listen to the videos related to the course. Technology experts explained what digitization is in simply way. Listening to presentations about the future developments e.g. that car could not be stolen because the car seat does not recognize the occupant felt incredible! Human mind is incredible at inventing new things. On the one hand, it’s scary, and on the other hand, I’m looking forward to what I’ll still be able to see in my lifetime. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The world is changing and people are trying to keep up. I have to increase my knowledge of safe digital behavior. I have to think twice Do I really need to download material from the Internet or is it worth downloading something to the Internet myself because the information contained in the downloadable materials is also large. This part of the course brought new things to think about what we have ahead of us in the future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
