OM DENNE EPISODE
Who Is Liable When AI Injures a Patient?
Medical errors happen; doctors are only human. And when doctors make mistakes, the law pertaining to who is liable is usually clear-cut. But what happens if the mistake was made by an AI, included one embedded in a device or a robot?
This episode will explore who is liable. Is it the hospital? The developer of the AI? The doctor on the scene? And what legal recourse do patients have? Nic Terry (an expert in the intersection of health, law, and technology), Michael Abramoff (an ophthalmologist, AI pioneer, and entrepreneur), and Ravi Parikh (a practicing oncologist and bioethicist) will attempt to answer these questions and others.
