ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN MEDICINE

Abstract

Artificial intelligence is a very vague notion, which relies on a quite strong technical and economic development. lt is meant to be part of our lives massively around 2025, including some medical applications. So, what would them be?
Its project consists in data massive collect and deep learning, to supplant the most expensive and less efficient part of the medical act, so that the doctor, and more generally the whole health crew, would serve the artificial intelligence. This poses several moral, legal and practical questions: how could this data be collected? How can this system be put into motion? Who can access to this big data? What do the patients’legal rights consist in, concerning this data? What is the legal framework? Artificial intelligence admits some limits, which it does not necessarily have knowledge of; these are the limits that turn security it aims to self quite unstable. What would we do though the system gets uncontrollable? What are the vocational training perspectives in the domains where artificial intelligence took human’s place?
Artificial intelligence would not be anything else than a tool, whose master is the human being. lt is essential to quickly organize a legal framework adapted to this new situation, which shall never develop providing all its benefits without being contained in its inevitable overflows, to preserve from tragical reef patients and the whole society.
