Digital Professionalism, Artificial Intelligence, and You

Course Description

Many individuals who follow contemporary research and development in artificial intelligence applications are predicting that these applications will enable, over the next few decades, the greatest cultural and socioeconomic upheavals in the history of humankind.  While some commentators are deeply anxious over these projections, others are markedly optimistic and claim that artificial intelligence may bring about unprecedented improvements in standards of living throughout the world.  One thing is certain, however:  the nature and delivery of health care in industrially advanced countries will be exquisitely affected, largely owing to the myriad of technologies that have developed over the last thirty years and which will be vastly improved (and likely replaced) by new developments in AI.
Artificial intelligence technologies require enormous amounts of data in order to eventually perform its diagnostic, prognostic, or generative function.  Typically, the model “learns” to identify patterns from the data on which it is trained and then uses that pattern recognition information to fashion its outputs.  This kind of clinical decision-making is unprecedented, and it introduces new forms of responsibility, accountability, and liability for physicians and healthcare professionals.
We will examine a variety of scenarios that can expose a clinician, his or her clinic or hospital, or both to considerable legal risk.  Put otherwise, these scenarios reflect likely negligence claims by patients or their families in the not-too-distant future involving artificial intelligence applications of large language models.
Target Audience
