Risk Mitigation Strategies for Artificial Intelligence Solutions in Healthcare Management
There are a growing number of examples of how Artificial Intelligence Solutions (AIS) can assist in improving healthcare management: early diagnosis, chronic disease management, hospital readmission reduction, efficient scheduling and billing procedures, and effective patient follow-ups while attempting to achieve healthcare's quintuple aim.
AI systems are constantly evolving. Machine learning models learn from data and experience, and once they are released into the real world, they need to continually be monitored, tested, and retrained on an ongoing basis. It also needs to be created with ethical and responsible frameworks in place.
Read MoreWe have already jumped into the pool of AI innovation. Just to be clear, this isn't a human inventing the AI but the human-invented AI inventing something new. There have been interesting debates on the patentability of the “machine” inventor.
Read MoreI am a major sci fi fan. Well, at least I thought I was until I went to my first Star Trek convention in my 20s and realized that I was in the minority of people who did not speak Klingon or know episode numbers, titles or dates. Science fiction inspires technologists every day. Most recently, I have become inspired by Black Mirror, a show originally aired by the BBC and now offered on Netflix. The brainchild of Charlie Brooker, Black Mirror is the Twilight Zone for our times, giving us a glimpse as to how technology trajectories can be used to affect society in unintended ways in the coming decades.
Read MoreOn August 20, 2020, The Responsible Innovation Project, held an academic and industry roundtable on Responsible AI, raising the question: Can AI really be responsible? The goal was to arrive at a collective understanding of the challenges and strategies for building AI responsibly. The participatory roundtable included multi-disciplinary academic and industry leaders, practitioners, and researchers working on technology and AI or at the intersection of technology, policy, and humanities. The diverse group converged on one meta-theme: The need and desire to put society and people front and center of Technology and AI. And the struggle to figure out how.
Intelligent automation offers much promise to companies to drive efficiencies but it is not the panacea. By adopting a responsible framework for the deployment of such systems, companies can ensure that they are not inadvertently causing individual or societal or indeed economic harm to their business.
