Summary: The following video discusses how AI is innovating the healthcare industry, but as the technology develops and the line between humans and machine becomes blurry, ethical issues arise. Human augmentation technology which is intended to re-establish human agency is actually taking control away from humans. As healthcare consumers who have the most say in which technologies should be developed, Ashleigh Kennedy encourages the audience to take ownership of our health data, and engage in the social conversation of regulations and relevant ethical issues.
