Artificial Intelligence has been a topic of conversation across all sectors.  Especially when looking for predictions about the future of the workforce.  What role will Artificial Intelligence (AI) play in the workforce?  What role does AI play now?  Answers to these questions vary as AI is developed daily for technology applications.


Recently, a brief from Politico Future Pulse listed a 'checklist' that Healthcare providers should consider when transitioning to AI.  Below are the 6 points listed on the checklist:


1. A use case, including how a proposed system is expected to help patients and improve health system efficiency or treatment equity


2. A clear specification of the task the system performs to achieve those goals


3. Benchmarks to evaluate the system’s success or failure


4. An understanding of how the system performs for different groups of people


5. A grasp of a system’s limits and when it shouldn’t be used


6. A protocol for monitoring systems to ensure it’s working under real-world conditions


While considering the 6 above items, consider how AI might change the atmosphere in your own workplace.
