Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare and EducationCOVID-19 diagnosis using AIAI in cancer detection
Abstract
Abstract Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) holds promise in reshaping healthcare by transforming educational patterns, patient care, and research opportunities. However, there are obstacles impeding the proper integration of AI into the medical field. This study was undertakento evaluate the knowledge, attitude, and awareness of medical students and resident doctors regarding AI in medicine and healthcare. Methods:A questionnaire-based survey was conducted that included a total of 16 questions specifically designed to assess the knowledge and attitude of participants towards AI. The questionnaire used in the present study was developed for this study only and content validity of the initial questionnaire was adequately assessed. The questionnaire was converted into a Google Form, and participants were provided with the link to complete it. Statistical analysis was conducted using R version 4.3.2 (R-Studio). Results: Out of 194 respondents, 113 (58.25%) were medical students, and 81 (41.75%) were resident postgraduate doctors aged 19 to 32 (average 23.91 years) and a male-to-female ratio of 3.62:1. While 63.41% rated their AI knowledge as poor to below average, with 55.15% lacking understanding of many AI terminologies, 59.28% believed AI tools could enhance their understanding of medical concepts. 83.5% expressed interest in furthering knowledge on AI in healthcare. ChatGPT was the most used AI tool, primarily for language correction (50%), literature reviews and manuscript writing (43.3%), and creating presentation outlines (37.11%). Additionally, knowledge about AI devices and apps applicable to diagnostics, therapeutics, patient care, and data analysis was evaluated, along with opinions on barriers to incorporating AI in healthcare. 81.44% of respondents were unaware of AI's ethical considerations. Conclusions: AI has immense potential across diverse healthcare sectors. Nonetheless, our study also underscores the pressing need to confront challenges and equip our future healthcare professionals with the evolving realm of AI. This is essential to ensure they can effectively apply practical AI knowledge for enhanced patient care and management.
GAOKAO-Bench is introduced, an intuitive benchmark that employs questions from the Chinese GAOKAO examination as test samples, including both subjective and objective questions that contribute a robust evaluation benchmark for future large language models and offers valuable insights into the advantages and limitations of such models.

Various recent Artificial Intelligence (AI) system failures, some of which have made the global headlines, have highlighted issues in these systems. These failures have resulted in calls for more ethical AI systems that better take into account their effects on various stakeholders. However, implementing AI ethics into practice is still an on-going challenge. High-level guidelines for doing so exist, devised by governments and private organizations alike, but lack practicality for developers. To address this issue, in this paper, we present a method for implementing AI ethics. The method, ECCOLA, has been iteratively developed using a cyclical action design research approach. The method aims at making the high-level AI ethics principles more practical, making it possible for developers to more easily implement them in practice.

Progress in the field of artificial intelligence has been accelerating rapidly in the past two decades. Various autonomous systems from purely digital ones to autonomous vehicles are being developed and deployed out on the field. As these systems exert a growing impact on society, ethics in relation to artificial intelligence and autonomous systems have recently seen growing attention among the academia. However, the current literature on the topic has focused almost exclusively on theory and more specifically on conceptualization in the area. To widen the body of knowledge in the area, we conduct an empirical study on the current state of practice in artificial intelligence ethics. We do so by means of a multiple case study of five case companies, the results of which indicate a gap between research and practice in the area. Based on our findings we propose ways to tackle the gap.

The growing influence and decision-making capacities of Autonomous systems and Artificial Intelligence in our lives force us to consider the values embedded in these systems. But how ethics should be implemented into these systems? In this study, the solution is seen on philosophical conceptualization as a framework to form practical implementation model for ethics of AI. To take the first steps on conceptualization main concepts used on the field needs to be identified. A keyword based Systematic Mapping Study (SMS) on the keywords used in AI and ethics was conducted to help in identifying, defying and comparing main concepts used in current AI ethics discourse. Out of 1062 papers retrieved SMS discovered 37 re-occurring keywords in 83 academic papers. We suggest that the focus on finding keywords is the first step in guiding and providing direction for future research in the AI ethics field.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems exert a growing influence on our society. As they become more ubiquitous, their potential negative impacts also become evident through various real-world incidents. Following such early incidents, academic and public discussion on AI ethics has highlighted the need for implementing ethics in AI system development. However, little currently exists in the way of frameworks for understanding the practical implementation of AI ethics. In this paper, we discuss a research framework for implementing AI ethics in industrial settings. The framework presents a starting point for empirical studies into AI ethics but is still being developed further based on its practical utilization.
