- Abstract
The document titled "Towards Responsible AI in Patient Education: Ethical, Linguistic, and Regulatory Considerations" responds to a previous publication on the accuracy of responses generated by the language model ChatGPT to questions about bariatric surgery. The authors agree with the ethical concerns raised about using AI-driven tools in patient education and emphasize the importance of patient autonomy and critical evaluation of AI-generated information. They also acknowledge the need for linguistic inclusivity and the potential for exacerbating healthcare disparities. The authors highlight the importance of enhancing language inclusivity and promoting patient education to increase technological literacy. They discuss the risk of exacerbating healthcare disparities among patients with diverse linguistic backgrounds and emphasize the need for AI models to prioritize linguistic adaptability and inclusivity. The authors also address the regulatory landscape surrounding the deployment of AI models in healthcare and call for a robust regulatory framework. They suggest a collaborative approach involving legal and regulatory experts to navigate this complex terrain effectively. Lastly, the authors appreciate the recommendation for continual model improvement through real-time feedback loops involving healthcare professionals and envision a future where AI models are integrated into the electronic health record for continuous feedback and refinement. Overall, the authors emphasize the importance of ethical practice, inclusivity, and a robust regulatory framework in leveraging AI for patient education and care.
