The use of artificial intelligence in the field of reproductive medicine today focuses on the analysis of large amounts of images of eggs, embryos and sperm to provide a better result in reproduction treatments, this should be used as a tool that provides support to both the doctor and the embryologist in decision making. When investigating which embryo is better at the time of embryo transfer and achieving a pregnancy and finally a live newborn, of course there are limitations and in relation to precision medicine a greater use of AI in reproductive treatments is expected. AI aims to be able to offer personalized reproduction treatments to each patient.
