Abstract: AI is changing our lives, the ways we manage our health, and the ways health systems and practitioners support us. In this talk, I will reflect on the evolving roles of AI in healthcare. I will draw on examples from my team’s research to highlight requirements on AI technologies if their impact on healthcare is to be widely seen as positive. I will close by sketching possible visions for the future of AI in healthcare.
