Google Public Policy’s Post

“AI is a way to augment clinical and human decision-making — not to replace that,” says CVS Health EVP and Chief Medical Officer Dr. Sreekanth Chaguturu. “That human touch is really important. At Oak Street Health, we're using generative AI to help with case summarization and history taking, which allows our clinical teams to be present in conversations with patients.” Dr. Sree Chaguturu sat down with Google Chief Health Officer Dr. Karen DeSalvo to discuss the role safe and responsible AI can play in driving better health outcomes for patients and providers alike.

It's encouraging to see such forward-thinking applications of AI in healthcare, as discussed by Dr. Sreekanth Chaguturu and Dr. Karen DeSalvo. Utilizing AI to augment clinical decision-making can indeed enhance patient care while preserving the irreplaceable human touch. From the International Trade Council, we appreciate the initiatives by Google Public Policy and its partners to promote safe and responsible AI use, driving better health outcomes across the globe. We look forward to more innovations that continue to support healthcare providers and their patients.

But why does Google Play allow nudifying AI apps, even rated as allowed for kids? Yes, AI can do so much good, but you also have a responsibility to stop the onslaught of sexual exploitation and trauma already exploding because of AI tools across your platforms. Or what about apps that are practically Tinder for teens where grooming and child abuse are running rampant?! You took down Wizz and then let it right back up...why?

"(New technology X) is a way to augment (human ability Y) — not to replace it”. Said every single time right before a HUGE number of people lost their jobs. The only interesting question is: Do the people making these idiotic statements actually believe them?

Well said and intriguing. I’ve used ChatGPT 4 to summarize/capture project discussions for my personal work as a writer - amazed by its ability to pick up threads that we didn’t during the conversation yet also thinking about the errors. Perhaps not too different from what humans do but given human tendencies to think of machines as infallible, what protocols have been put in place to mitigate errors in case summarization and history taking? Thanks in advance!
