Artificial intelligence is transforming healthcare, but with this transformation comes critical questions around data, ethics, patient consent, and liability. In “AI in Healthcare: Development Phases, Ethical Questions, and Liability Risks,” I. Glenn Cohen, JD, from Harvard Law School, breaks down the four phases of AI development in healthcare and the legal and ethical considerations at each stage: 1️⃣ Acquiring Data: Ensuring the right data is used to prevent bias. 2️⃣ Validating the Model: Balancing intellectual property with patient trust. 3️⃣ Testing in Real-World Settings: Addressing informed consent, trustworthiness, and patient safety. 4️⃣ Broad Dissemination: Extending AI's benefits to underserved populations. As AI adoption grows, so do the responsibilities of healthcare providers and institutions. Learn how these challenges can be addressed to utilize AI's full potential while ensuring patient safety and ethical integrity: https://lnkd.in/ga3fwtP4 #AIinHealthcare #EthicsInAI #PatientSafety #HealthTech #MedicalInnovation
