To support the responsible use of AI across NSW Health, all staff and stakeholders must consider the broader AI landscape, including existing government requirements, legislation and the NSW Health context.
AI has the potential to have a significant impact on healthcare. It can help drive transformative change in how healthcare is provided and accelerate many aspects of clinical research.
AI presents great opportunities and benefits for consumers, clinicians and system managers.
- For consumers, AI could streamline healthcare navigation, provide real-time language translation and enable access to care outside of traditional methods.
- For the workforce, AI could help address system challenges by reducing administrative burden and allow the workforce more time to deliver care.
However, the opportunities and potential benefits of AI need to be balanced with consideration and management of the potential risks around safety, ethics, privacy, security and regulation.
