Recording: AI in Healthcare: The Patient Perspective
Description
DCI Network presents our latest webinar "AI in Healthcare: The Patient Perspective".
As the medical applications of AI continue to emerge, a diverse array of possibilities unfolds before us. Amidst the excitement, it is essential to notice the perspective of patients. Historically, patients found themselves at the mercy of the medical establishment, lacking control over their care, explanations, and access to their medical information. However, this equation is shifting as empowered patients harness the potential of AI to become their own advocates.
This engaging webinar explores various scenarios and the use cases where patients leverage AI to empower themselves. From interpreting lab results to making informed decisions about treatment options, the impact of these use cases promises to rebalance and democratize access to vital information and data. However, along with these benefits come potential risks. AI systems, particularly generative large language models, can provide newfound empowerment while simultaneously presenting challenges.
This is the second installment in the DCI Network's series on AI in Healthcare, where we delve into these challenges from empowered patients' perspectives. Our esteemed speakers, Amy Price, Ph.D., and Dave deBronkart, both influential patient advocates with decades of experience, will share their invaluable insights on the subject and answer questions from the webinar attendees.
