The Role of Transparency in AI-Driven Technologies: Targeting Healthcare

Abstract

This chapter delves into the pivotal role of transparency within artificial intelligence (AI)-based applications, emphasizing its importance for reliability, accountability, and ensuring the ethical usage of AI targeting healthcare contexts. The chapter examines four dimensions of transparency: data, algorithmic, decision-making, and AI solution, and identifies problems and limitations in achieving them based on real-world digital health use cases. Current efforts and recommended strategies aiming at boosting transparency are discussed, emphasizing the need to define the objectives of transparency, the circumstances under which it should be applied, and the rationale behind it. This chapter advocates for collaborative efforts from stakeholders throughout the healthcare ecosystem to prioritize and implement transparent AI systems for the benefit of patients and society.
