Description
Given the tremendous potential and rapid adoption of AI systems for health, how can we ensure that they are safe and effective, both in design and in implementation? Two key mechanisms are often promoted by policymakers, professional organizations, and scholars: centralized regulation and patient-level oversight by expert humans in the loop. But it is a dangerous mistake to design AI systems or AI regulation with the assumption that these two mechanisms can be combined for an effective oversight regime for medical AI. Each mechanism has major limitations: centralized governance has limited ability to address localization and generalizability challenges that are endemic to medical AI, and humans in the loop are often quite bad at overseeing AI decisions--when they are available for that oversight in the first place. This talk will explore the theoretical limitations to these mechanisms and also consider their implications for patient trust and acceptance of AI systems.
