The researcher argues that demanding perfect AI before clinical deployment is a form of status quo bias: human clinicians make errors at higher rates than imperfect AI systems, but we accept human error as normal while demanding machine perfection.
Highlights
•
The gap between healthcare AI research performance and clinical deployment performance is the largest in any AI application domain
The researcher presents data showing that healthcare AI models that achieve 95%+ accuracy on research datasets routinely drop to 70-80% accuracy when deployed in clinical settings. The gap between research and deployment is larger in healthcare than in any other domain.Was this useful?
