šŸ“£šŸ„³ Excited to share our paper in @JAMANetworkOpen describing the values of #youth regarding ethical issues in #HealthAI ! #AIEthics #bioethics #youthengagement We noted strong preferences and values expressed by @SickKidsNews patients to guide ethical integration of AI 🧵/9
Engaging children and youths is important to build trust and develop social license as they express a strong desire to be included in decision-making regarding #AI integration in health care. ja.ma/41Y1L4z @Mmccradden

Replying to @CohenProf
@CohenProf gave a great talk on #medicolegal aspects of #HealthAI highlighting areas where law provides clarity and others where it is limited in offering guidance for #EthicalAI It was a pleasure to be in discussion on these big topics!
Replying to @DECYale
@CohenProf opens Day 3 with a keynote about the legal, ethical, and regulatory dimensions of medical AI, and analyses physician-AI partnerships; @MMccradden responds.

Finally, we got a great question from Italian attendees - practically speaking, what can we do? My answer is local, sociotechnical evaluation, partnering with consumers 😁 Project CANAIRI with @DrXiaoLiu will aim to address this! medium.com/@aiml_58187/ais-c…

Dear @LinkedIn, may I remind you of your own Responsible AI Principles? Remember, the ones about Trust, Privacy, Transparency, Accountability? Asking for consent is literally Responsible AI 101. Seems like these principles are – as for so many companies – just marketing BS.
LinkedIn is now using everyone's content to train their AI tool -- they just auto opted everyone in. I recommend opting out now (AND that orgs put an end to auto opt-in, it's not cool) Opt out steps: Settings and Privacy > Data Privacy > Data for Generative AI Improvement (OFF)

Can you make a ā€˜good’ (ie, ethical & medicolegally accountable) decision using AI without explanations? @IStedman and I explore this Q & the reasonableness standard and we say YES Explaining decisions without explainability? Artificial intelligence a... sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

We consider 2 case examples - one of a discharge recommendation predictor and another using ChatGPT We show how a holistic analysis centred on the patient’s interests does not require #ExplainableAI

1/ Hi @Oprah . This event will be the first time many people will get info on Generative Ai. However it is shaping up to be a misinformed marketing event staring vested interests (some who are under a litany of lawsuits) who ignore the harms GenAi inflicts on communities NOW 🧵

I spoke to Mariana about the evidence bar and challenges of testing AI in health
In my latest story for @Nature, I explore the challenges of properly testing medical AI tools. Hundreds of algorithms have been approved in recent years, but few have undergone clinical trials. I heard from experts leading some of these studies: nature.com/articles/d41586-0…
