One promising way to optimize and improve the development of herbal remedies is to incorporate artificial intelligence (AI) methodology into the field of herbal medicinal formulations. AI methods are being used increasingly to analyze large datasets that include traditional knowledge, pharmacological properties, botanical compounds, and therapeutic effects. These methods include machine learning algorithms, neural networks, and natural language processing. These computational tools make it easier to identify bioactive ingredients, anticipate synergistic interactions, and understand the molecular processes that underlie herbal formulations. Furthermore, the process of drug discovery and development can be streamlined by using AI-driven modeling to quickly screen formulations for safety, bioavailability, and efficacy. The combination of AI and herbal medicine works well together to speed up the search for new therapeutic combinations and facilitate comprehension of the complex interactions between phytochemicals and their biological targets. However, issues like algorithm robustness, ethical considerations, and data quality make more research and validation in this emerging field necessary. However, the combination of AI techniques and herbal medicine formulations has great potential to advance evidence-based and personalized healthcare practices.
