ABSTRACT

Efforts to regulate AI and educate clinicians to implement ethical and trustworthy AI have rarely included patient perspectives on how and when AI should be used. This gap puts patients at risk and leaves trainees unprepared to integrate AI into patient care. We discuss the need for new approaches that integrate patient perspectives into the training of health professionals to foster an inclusive and patient-centered future of AI in healthcare.
