Enhancing artificial intelligence with medical ethics is an evolving technology that could use only the positive aspects of human thinking and avoid every negative shade, such as coercion, greed, envy, and selfishness. This cross-sectional study that investigates ethical decision-making according to Artificial Intelligence is possible by formulating a program to operate with empathy, sympathy and compassion with application to pharmacology and medical practice. This option finds good use in emergencies, protocol studies, and difficult council split decisions. The use of common sense is an empirical matter, which leads to a technical way of pretraining autonomous robotic mechanisms to act and respond properly to certain concepts, just like a human being might have done. Artificial Intelligence is to be able to make a sound ethical decision in the best interest of the patient.
