Could Someone Give me Insights on Ethical Implications of AI in Healthcare?

[oliviajacksone]

Hello there,

I am reaching out to this thoughtful community to explore a topic that has been on my mind lately: the ethical implications of artificial intelligence (AI) in the healthcare sector. As AI continues to advance and integrate more deeply into medic;al practices;, I believe it is crucial to examine both the potential benefits and the eth;ical challenges that come with it.

One of the key areas of concern for me is the balance between AI-driven efficiency and the preservation of patient privacy. AI can process vast; amounts of data to improve diagnostics and treatment plans, but how do we ensure that patient confidential;ity is maintained?

Additionally, with AI making decisions or recommendations, how do we handle accountability, especially in cases where AI might make an error; or a decision that a human ;doctor might not agree with?

I am also interested in the ethical considerations surrounding access to AI technologies in healthcare. Will these advancements be accessible to all;, or only to those who can afford them? How do we address potential inequalities that could arise from this disparity?

The integration of AI in healthcare ;raises questions about the doctor-patient relationship. Will AI change the way patients interact with their healthcare providers?

Also, I have gone through this post: https://forum.centerforinquiry.org/t/marijuana-news/8070tableau which definitely helped me out a lot.

Could it lead to a more impersonal healthcare experience;, or can it actually enhance the human touch by freeing up doctors to spend mo;re quality time with patients?

Thankyou in advance for your help and assistance.

Good topic to start. I’m rather out of the loop, though I did recently listened to a couple introductions, that really caught my attention. So I have little to add, except to say the obvious that, it’s rapidly developing situation we need to learn about since it’s going to impact a lot of things. How radically, jury is still out. A bit scary considering who’s bankrolling this.
What else is new.
Well, . . . aside from the black swans roosting on our horizons.

I hope you get some good feedback, write4u probably has some goodies to share.

There may come a time where an AI can actively protect itself from hackers.
