Automation Complacency: AI-Induced Abdication of Medical Decision-Making

Join our virtual event: Automation Complacency: AI-Induced Abdication of Medical Decision-Making.
 

About this event:

This webinar will draw urgent attention to automation complacency in relation to decision support systems used in healthcare contexts, especially their impact on clinicians, patients, and the quality of care. While AI and medical decision support systems can enhance efficiency and outcomes in healthcare, the potential for automation bias risks clinical perils. These include eroded vigilance, impoverished therapeutic relationships, and potentially poorer outcomes regarding overall well-being. The panelists will highlight these ethical and legal concerns and urge heightened vigilance to effectively integrate technology in a way that spares cognitive resources without compromising the role of humans in making medical decisions.

One hour of CLE credit will be available in the Cybersecurity, Privacy and Data Protection-General category.
