AI is poised to make transformative and disruptive advances in health care. However, it is prudent to balance the need for thoughtful, inclusive health care AI against potential unintended consequences, marketing hype, and profit motives.

A new National Academy of Medicine Special Publication synthesizes current knowledge about the use of AI in health care, outlines the current and near-term solutions, highlights challenges and best practices, and identifies limitations of the technology. This Special Publication is intended to be used as a reference document for all stakeholders involved in AI, health care, or the intersection of the two, as we all move toward a future increasingly dependent on technology together. The Special Publication prioritizes caution in implementation of this technology, prioritization of human connections between clinicians and patients, and an unwavering focus on equity and inclusion.

The emergence of AI in health care offers unprecedented opportunities to improve health care outcomes for all – but these opportunities must be approached thoughtfully, cautiously, and by an integrated, diverse team of stakeholders. https://bit.ly/2P8n00y
