Why AI in health care needs stronger testing before clinical use

Health care executive Max Rollwage discusses his article "The promise and perils of AI in health care: Why we need better testing standards." Max highlights the risks of relying on AI systems that are evaluated through artificial scenarios or even other AI models, emphasizing the dangers of circular validation in high-stakes environments like emergency care. He discusses why true readiness requires real-world clinical trials, expert human evaluation, and impact studies on patient outcomes. Max also points to the role of regulators like the FDA and AI Safety Institutes in setting higher standards, and he offers practical insights on how the medical community and technology developers can ensure safe and effective AI deployment. Listeners will come away with a clearer understanding of both the promise and the perils of AI in medicine, and what it will take to responsibly bring these tools to the bedside.
