This article explores how health data technology tools such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) tools can be implemented and adapted to assist in better responses and outcomes to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as future epidemics. This literature review focuses on peer-reviewed articles concerning four themes: COVID-19 and the need for AI; utility of AI in COVID-19 screening, contract tracing, and diagnosis; use of AI in COVID-19 patient monitoring and drug development; AI beyond COVID-19 and opportunities for Low-Middle Income Communities (LMIC). This review contains examples of ways healthcare systems have implemented AI and ML to predict and treat outcomes of COVID-19, as well as potential capacities for AI.
