Preserving physician ethics in the era of autonomous AI

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: For this commentary we explore the how and why of a looming responsibility shift to autonomous AI in medicine and the potential unintended consequence of reducing doctors’ sense of obligation to preserve ethics. In exploring this proposition, we address the difficulties of relying upon intelligent machines to uphold ethics and we offer suggestions on how policymakers and medical educators might prevent ethics degradation caused by the alignment of doctors with autonomous AI.
