Turning healthy data into value. I help healthcare organizations bring together information that matters with InterSystems technology. Got data, need value? Send me a message.
The data we use to build and train AI models must represent all the people the solution may touch. This kind of inclusive representation is essential to maintaining a human touch in healthcare AI without amplifying biases and inequities. Representation needs to go beyond demographics and include people with a range of abilities. I gleaned this insight from Dr. Medell Briggs, MD, MPH, MSHS, whose keynote at InterSystems #GlobalSummit24 was unforgettable. The chief of health equity, diversity, and inclusion at UCLA Health emphasized that input from diverse voices is essential throughout the development lifespan, from design to post-implementation audits. At InterSystems, we believe balancing responsibility with innovation in this way is central to navigating the ethical frontiers of AI in healthcare and ensuring the technology is a force for good. I want to leave you with her final words: “This is the time that we get to revolutionize our technology to ensure that it is ethical and just for all of us.” Dr. Briggs-Malonson’s insights are crucial as we enter this uncharted territory.
