And one of the great limitations of AI is it doesn't work well with non numerical data. Health sciences data are more qualitative in nature so doesn't lend itself to AI like other engineering sciences.

Totally agree. AI is decision tree models and correlation analysis. But the massive computing power can crunch huge amounts of data looking for relationships that may hold a clue to causality and possibly even a cure. But raw power alone is not enough. And decision tree models cannot evolve on its own without creative human insight.
