Harvard Law School publishes a report outlining legal and ethical priorities for the deployment of artificial intelligence in healthcare systems. The authors stress the need for clear regulations on transparency, informed consent, data use, and accountability to prevent harm and ensure equitable access.

Key recommendations include mandatory testing and validation of AI systems before clinical use, legal duties for developers, safeguards against algorithmic bias, and strong data privacy protections. The paper advocates a public-private regulatory model that allows innovation while ensuring patient safety and legal redress mechanisms.
