As AI and machine learning technologies continue to transform the healthcare industry, it’s important to consider the ethical implications of these technologies. The Ethical, Legal and Social Issues (ELSI) working group within AI for Health is dedicated to this mission, working to ensure that the development and implementation of AI solutions in healthcare are aligned with ethical principles and social values.
In this blog post, we’ll explore some of the key ethical considerations related to AI in healthcare, including issues of transparency, accountability, and patient autonomy. We’ll also discuss the ELSI working group’s efforts to promote ethical considerations in the use of AI in healthcare, including their research, education, and policy development initiatives.
