Artificial intelligence and responsible innovation in health: a public health lens to tackle equity and sustainability issues
FY 2019-20
Summary
Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms have been incorporated into different types of medical technologies for diagnosis, prevention, treatment and care of certain health conditions. These technologies have the potential to offer earlier and more accurate diagnoses, generate a broader and more accurate understanding of diseases, and enable the prioritization of patients who really need such services. In principle, AI algorithms could contribute to the development and commercialization of novel interventions that proactively address health equity and health system sustainability issues. This study indicates that a public health lens is needed to steer the development of AI-based health technologies towards the reduction of health inequalities and more sustainable health systems.
