Survey on Ethical Challenges of Implementing AI in Healthcare

Abstract

In today's world, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its usage concerning human tasks have become an integral part of our daily lives. Humans depend upon AI to provide faster and more efficient solutions. In the world of medicine, where every decision made by a doctor, physician, or consultant directly impacts the lives of those being treated or diagnosed, AI is making its way to help efficiently provide such results as the intelligence of a human being. Healthcare systems around the world are now making use of AI to help provide humane solutions using algorithms and Machine Learning (ML). Fallacies or inaccuracies in the arena of healthcare can have horrendous outcomes for the patient on whom the procedure is being carried out. Sometimes, certain ethics could be traded off by the system, such as confidentiality, autonomy, justice, and biased decisions leading to false results and victim blaming, which directs the masses into not trusting AI-related healthcare solutions. This situation can lead to mishaps like “AI winter,” where the public could start disbelieving the results of AI solutions. This survey review makes an effort to analyze and address these pertinent ethical issues underlying the requirement for algorithmic translucency, concealment, and safeguarding the interests of all those involved.
