Reeeeeee Archive: https://archive.today/jEcbH From the post: >>From programs designed to detect irregular heartbeats in electrocardiograms to software that tracks eye movements to diagnose autism in children, artificial intelligence (AI) is helping physicians fine-tune the care they provide patients. But for all the technology’s potential for automating tasks, a growing body of evidence also shows that AI can be prone to bias that disadvantages already vulnerable patients. A new study, published today in Science Advances, adds to this work by testing one of the most cited AI models used to scan chest x-rays for diseases—and finding the model doesn’t accurately detect potentially life-threatening diseases in marginalized groups, including women and Black people.
