Revolutionizing Reproduction: The Impact of Robotics and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Assisted Reproductive Technology: A Comprehensive Review

Abstract

Assisted reproductive technology (ART) has revolutionized the field of reproductive medicine, offering hope to millions of individuals and couples facing infertility challenges. In recent years, integrating robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a promising avenue for advancing ART. This comprehensive review explores the transformative impact of robotics and AI on ART, examining recent advancements, technological applications, clinical implications, and ethical considerations. Robotics enables precise and minimally invasive procedures, enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of various reproductive techniques such as sperm retrieval, embryo handling, and surgical interventions. Meanwhile, AI offers predictive analytics, personalized treatment protocols, and decision support systems tailored to individual patient needs, optimizing treatment outcomes and expanding access to reproductive care. Key findings highlight the significant advancements made possible by robotics and AI in ART, including improved success rates, reduced risks, and enhanced patient experience. However, challenges such as regulatory considerations, adoption barriers, and ethical dilemmas must be addressed to realize the full potential of these technologies. The transformative impact of robotics and AI on ART is profound, shaping the future of fertility treatment and family-building worldwide. Continued research, interdisciplinary collaboration, and investment are essential to further harness the potential of robotics and AI in advancing reproductive medicine and ensuring accessible, equitable, and effective care for all individuals and couples.
