Accuracy ≠ safety. A new npj Digital Medicine paper introduces SA-ROC, a framework that asks the real question: when is it operationally safe to trust clinical AI? Instead of just reporting AUC, it defines: • “Safe zones” for autonomous action • A “gray zone” requiring human review • A metric to quantify the cost of indecision In one case study, the model with better AUC was actually less safe in practice. Maybe it’s time we stop equating performance with safety. nature.com/articles/s41746-0…

Our perspective on the following questions was published in #NatureBME. 1. Can we develop AI that doesn't make mistakes? 2. Can we find cases where AI is not confident? 3. Could we be aware of the weaknesses of AI in advance? rdcu.be/c2s0k #MGB #HMS #AI
