Health AI Ethics and Governance: The WHO Guidance, Can It Make a Difference?
In this lecture Effy Vayena (Professor of Bioethics, ETH Zurich) will discuss the recently released guidance by the World Health Organization (WHO) on the ethics and governance of Health AI. The guidance is an attempt to move global governance efforts forward. With this as her starting point, she will aim to contextualize the report in the current scholarly and political discourse of AI ethics more broadly; highlight its key messages along with some of its specific recommendations. In the last part of the talk she will focus on obstacles and potential enablers that are likely to determine the impact of this guidance.
We will also hear responses from additional panelists.
This event is part of the Lecture Series on Ethics and Governance of AI for Health organized by the University of Toronto Joint Centre for Bioethics in partnership with The Women’s College Hospital Institute for Health System Solutions and Virtual Care (WIHV) and AMS Healthcare.
