Artificial Intelligence - The New Normal
Artificial Intelligence – AI, is everywhere! From delivering the tacos you crave to the car you drive to the clinical trial you might need -- it's reshaping our world and our work. AI-based technologies are helping solve complex problems in nearly every discipline, industry, and human endeavor. And in healthcare, artificial intelligence is a game-changer..
The Case for AI
AI-based technologies do many things faster and better than humans can alone, with the promise of so much more ahead. And with that, comes a lot of questions, possibilities and well-founded concerns.
In this first episode – of many to come exploring AI’s role in transforming healthcare – we’re starting with the basics and the big picture:
- What is artificial intelligence?
- How can we ensure AI is safe, equitable, and beneficial for all?
- How should healthcare professionals think about and integrate AI into clinical settings?
Finding Answers to the Questions of AI
We reached out to veteran researcher and leading expert in computer science, machine learning, and AI, Peter Stone PhD, and nurse attorney and bioethicist Liz Stokes JD, MA, RN to explore these questions and dive into ANA’s position statement ‘The Ethical Use of Artificial Intelligence in Nursing Practice,’ as well as McKinsey & Company’s report ‘The pulse of nurses’ perspectives on AI in healthcare delivery.’ Together, they explore the transformative potential of AI in healthcare and how to ensure it serves everyone safely and equitably.
