Artificial intelligence (AI) has enormous potential for improving health outcomes and helping countries achieve universal health coverage. However, for AI to have a beneficial impact on people’s health, ethical considerations and human rights must be placed at the centre of its design, development and use.
- Describe the opportunities and benefits of using AI in healthcare;
- Outline the ethical considerations and explain the ethical challenges of its use;
- Describe liability considerations associated with the design, development, and use of AI for health; and
- Summarize frameworks and regulatory considerations for the design, development, and use of such technology in the sector.
In June 2021, WHO published Guidance on Ethics & Governance of Artificial Intelligence for Health after 18 months of deliberation amongst global leading experts on the ethical challenges of the use of AI technology for health. The report identifies the ethical challenges and risks with the use of AI for health and outlines six consensus principles to make sure AI works to the public benefit of all countries. It also contains a set of recommendations to ensure the governance of AI for health maximizes the promise of such technology and holds all stakeholders accountable and responsive to end-users.
