Abstract
The rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming healthcare and daily life, offering great opportunities but also posing ethical and societal challenges. To ensure AI benefits all individuals, including those with intellectual disabilities, the focus should be on adaptive technology that can adapt to the unique needs of the user. Biomedical engineers have an interdisciplinary background that helps them to lead multidisciplinary teams in the development of human-centered AI solutions. These solutions can personalize learning, enhance communication, and improve accessibility for individuals with intellectual disabilities. Furthermore, AI can aid in healthcare research, diagnostics, and therapy. The ethical use of AI in healthcare and the collaboration of AI with human expertise must be emphasized. Public funding for inclusive research is encouraged, promoting equity and economic growth while empowering those with intellectual disabilities in society.
