Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) has brought about revolutionary developments in the healthcare industry, including new approaches to patient care, treatment development, and ailment diagnosis. However, the rapid growth of AI applications in healthcare also presents ethical and legal issues which highlights the need for comprehensive regulations that address the particular problems and complexities of this field. AI in healthcare raises a number of ethical concerns, such as job losses, biassed diagnosis, and risks to data security and privacy. Future legal frameworks and standards should consider equity and inclusiveness of access to AI technology in healthcare, according to regulators and practitioners. Ensuring the proper use of artificial intelligence in healthcare requires striking a balance between the ethical and legal concerns surrounding its adoption and the incorporation of ethics within AI. Policymakers may safeguard patient safety and promote innovation in healthcare by comprehending the ethical issues and putting appropriate recommendations into practice.
