Radiology combines digital images, clear benchmarks, and repeatable tasks. But replacing humans with AI is harder than it seems.
Meta’s New AI Asked for My Raw Health Data—and Gave Me Terrible Advice
Meta’s Muse Spark model offers to analyze users’ health data, including lab results. Beyond the obvious privacy risks, it’s not a capable stand-in for a real doctor.
The Medium is the Message: How Non-Clinical Information Shapes Clinical Decisions in LLMs | Proceedings of the 2025 ACM Conference on Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency
There has been a growing interest in the HCI community to study Health, with particular focus in understanding healthcare practices and designing technologies to support and to enhance these practices. A majority of current health studies in HCI have ...
Implementation Science for AI Integration in Digital Health Systems
We systematically reviewed studies of implementation science frameworks used for healthcare AI deployment (2020-2026). Following PRISMA 2020, we searched MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus and included 87 empirical studies. CFIR was most common (42.5%), followed by RE-AIM (28.7%) and EPIS (18.4%). The most frequent barriers were data infrastructure limitations (67.8%), clinician trust deficits (58.6%), and regulatory uncertainty (52.9%). Implementation success was associated with organizational readiness (r=0.64, p
