Do No Harm: Balancing Innovation and Regulation in Health Care AI

A Conversation with I. Glenn Cohen, JD, Rangita de Silva de Alwis, SJD, Nigam Shah, MBBS, PhD, moderated by Ravi B. Parikh, MD, MPP

12:00p.m. – 1:00p.m. ET January 12, 2024 Virtual Event

As artificial intelligence evolves, so do technologies that have been developed to detect patterns and diagnose patients more effectively than a human. AI has the potential to save lives and transform the practice of medicine, but it could also disrupt care in harmful and inequitable ways. The Biden Administration, regulators, and health systems are grappling with questions about how to improve patient care, protect patient privacy, and reduce racial bias all while avoiding unintentional errors. Penn LDI and a panel of experts explored when and how to best invest in and deploy AI to improve America’s health.

Co-sponsored with the Human-Algorithm Collaboration Lab and the Penn Center for Cancer Care Innovation
