Artificial Intelligence and Health Equity: A Cautionary Tale
Artificial Intelligence is gaining widespread popularity, but despite the growing number of AI applications, many questions remain about how the technology could affect health disparities — for better or worse. “We know how technology has had a disparate impact and harms on people, and medicine has had disparate impact and harms,” says Bill Jordan, a family and preventive medicine doctor based in New York City. “We need to prepare physicians and future physicians to have these conversations with their patients and be able to explain… what the inequities could be based on, what we’ve seen in history, and then also what the opportunities are.” This week on the Health Disparities podcast: hosts Dr. Melvyn Harrington and Doreen Johnson discuss AI — and its pros and cons pertaining to health equity — with Dr. Jordan, along with Maia Hightower, CEO and co-founder of Equality AI, and Rebecca Stone, the executive director of Generation 7 Industries.
