Introduction

As part of the Turing's Clinical AI Interest Group, we have formed supra-interest groups in different clinical specialties to bring together clinicians and AI experts in a more focused manner - see webpage for details of all the groups.

The current supra-interest groups are:

  • Anaesthetics and Intensive Care
  • Medical imaging and computer vision
  • AI for Women's Health
  • Pathology
  • Public Health
  • NeuroAI
  • MSK AI


The Public Health supra-interest group focuses on the development and application of AI to prevent disease, prolong life, and promote, protect and improve health. The supra group enables sharing knowledge and ideas, pooling skills and learning across domain experts, data science and AI researchers, to advance the development of safe, ethical, responsible, and equitable AI across the three domains of public health.

 

About the event

In this meeting we will have a talk from Professor Valerio Capraro from University of Milan Bicocca.

Talk title: The impact of generative artificial intelligence across work, education and health – the potential impact on policy making.

Abstract: 

Generative AI has the potential to both exacerbate and ameliorate existing socioeconomic inequalities. In this talk, I provide an interdisciplinary overview of the potential impacts of generative AI on (mis)information and three information-intensive domains: work, education, and healthcare. The goal is to highlight how generative AI could worsen existing inequalities while illuminating how AI may help mitigate pervasive social problems. I conclude with a discussion highlighting the role of policymaking to maximize generative AI’s potential to reduce inequalities while mitigating its harmful effects.
