US Healthcare Providers Rally Behind Biden's AI Safety Regulations

Twenty-eight healthcare companies, including CVS Health, have committed to ensuring the safe development of artificial intelligence (AI) by signing U.S. President Joe Biden's voluntary commitments. This follows the commitments made by 15 leading AI companies, including Google and Microsoft, to develop AI models responsibly. The Biden administration aims to set parameters around AI as its capabilities and popularity grow, with limited regulation in place. The commitments by healthcare providers and payers aim to advance responsible AI in health-related fields, recognizing the potential benefits for patients, doctors, and hospital staff. The principles of the administration plan include informing users about AI-generated content, addressing potential harms, and developing AI solutions that improve health equity and access to care.
