Core Tip Artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted endoscopy technologies have significantly advanced early detection and diagnosis of gastrointestinal cancers, enhancing adenoma detection rates and improving clinical outcomes. Recent studies demonstrate that AI, through deep learning models, can effectively identify small lesions, reduce missed diagnoses, and assist in clinical decision-making across various gastrointestinal regions, including the esophagus, stomach, and colon. However, challenges such as data quality, model generalization, and physician-AI collaboration remain. Overcoming these issues will ensure AI’s broader clinical integration, making it a vital tool in precision medicine and early cancer screening.
