Abstract:
Artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as a transformative force reshaping health care delivery, including in clinical gastroenterology. However, its many benefits cannot be fully realized without also reconciling associated ethical, legal, and regulatory concerns to ensure its responsible use. Here, we present an overview of the core principles of responsible use of health care AI, including equity and fairness, patient autonomy, data privacy and security, accountability for AI-related patient harm, human agency, and regulation, using gastroenterology-relevant examples to highlight the benefits and risks of this powerful technology. We conclude with our predictions regarding the future legal and ethical impact of AI in our field.
