Unlocking the Potential of Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare: Opportunities and Risks (2:20 p.m. 3:20 p.m.)

Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies have the potential to transform various industries, including healthcare. However, to effectively leverage these tools to enhance patient care, improve outcomes, and optimize patient and provider experience, it is crucial to understand both its strengths and limitations. This lecture will provide an overview of the technology and describe areas where AI could have a significant near-term impact. It will also discuss the potential pitfalls of this technology, including its black-box nature, risks of bias, integration and implementation challenges, and potential ethical and liability risks. It will conclude by discussing several strategies to mitigate these risks and maximize AI’s benefits in health care.
