Abstract
The incidence of gastrointestinal malignancies has increased over the past decade at an alarming rate. Colorectal and gastric cancers are the third and fifth most commonly diagnosed cancers worldwide but are cited as the second and third leading causes of mortality. Early institution of appropriate therapy from timely diagnosis can optimize patient outcomes. Artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic tools can assist in expeditious diagnosis, treatment planning/response prediction, and post-surgical prognostication. AI can intercept neoplastic lesions in their primordial stages, accurately flag suspicious and/or inconspicuous lesions with greater accuracy on radiologic, histopathological, and/or endoscopic analyses, and eliminate over-dependence on clinicians. AI-based models have shown to be on par, and sometimes even outperformed experienced gastroenterologists and radiologists. Convolutional neural networks (state-of-the-art deep learning models) are powerful computational models, invaluable to the field of precision oncology. These models not only reliably classify images, but also accurately predict response to chemotherapy, tumor recurrence, metastasis, and survival rates post-treatment. In this systematic review, we analyze the available evidence about the diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic utility of artificial intelligence in gastrointestinal oncology.

Abstract
The development and implementation of artificial intelligence (AI), particularly deep learning (DL) models, has generated significant interest across various fields of gastroenterology. While research in luminal endoscopy has seen rapid translation to clinical practice with approved AI devices, its potential extends far beyond, offering promising benefits for biliopancreatic endoscopy like optical characterization of strictures during cholangioscopy or detection and classification of pancreatic lesions during diagnostic endoscopic ultrasound (EUS). This narrative review provides an up-to-date of the latest literature and available studies in this field. Serving as a comprehensive guide to the current landscape of AI in biliopancreatic endoscopy, emphasizing technological advancements, main applications, ethical considerations, and future directions for research and clinical implementation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The identification of early-stage colorectal cancers (CRC) and the resection of pre-cancerous neoplastic lesions through colonoscopy allows to decrease both CRC incidence and mortality. However, colonoscopy miss rates up to 26% for adenomas and 9% for advanced adenomas have been reported. In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) systems have been emerging as easy-to-use tools, potentially lowering the risk of missing lesions. AREAS COVERED This review paper focuses on GI Genius device (Medtronic Co. Minneapolis, MN, U.S.A.) a computer-assisted tool designed to assist endoscopists during standard white-light colonoscopies in detecting mucosal lesions. EXPERT OPINION Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) suggest that GI Genius is a safe and effective tool for improving adenoma detection, especially in CRC screening and surveillance colonoscopies. However, its impact seems to be less significant among experienced endoscopists and in real-world clinical scenarios compared to the controlled conditions of RCTs. Furthermore, it appears that GI Genius mainly enhances the detection of non-advanced, small polyps, but does not significantly impact the identification of advanced and difficult-to-detect adenoma. When using GI Genius, no complications were documented. Only a small number of studies reported an increased in withdrawal time or the removal of non-neoplastic lesions.
