I got a runner's knee #diagnosis#today. I have the strongest possible #artificial#joint in my left #knee. It was chosen because the posterior cruciate ligament was torn, and the knee would not have stabilized without this model. On the left side, the tendons are now irritatedand and tight. The reason is the stiffness of the model. This artificial joint does not flex at all laterally. It's a strong but "dummy knee" said the physiotherapist. I need to rest, take Burana and go to the massage.
@jeanettepizzurro Hi Jette. The gym wasn't actually the reason, it was walking in a deep snow. Exercises at the gym are controlled but the snowy ground is bumpy and this joint model is not laterally flexible at all.
Before a drug is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), it must demonstrate both safety and efficacy.
However, the #FDA does not require an understanding a drug’s mechanism of action for approval.
This acceptance of results without explanation raises the question of whether the "#blackbox" decision-making process of a safe and effective #artificial#intelligence model must be fully explained in order to secure FDA approval.
This topic was one of many discussion points addressed on Monday, Dec. 4 during the 🔸"MIT Abdul Latif Jameel Clinic for Machine Learning in Health AI and Health Regulatory Policy Conference", 🔸which ignited a series of discussions and debates amongst faculty; regulators from the United States, EU, and Nigeria; and industry experts concerning the regulation of AI in health.
As #machine#learning continues to evolve rapidly, uncertainty persists as to whether regulators can keep up and still reduce the likelihood of harmful impact while ensuring that their respective countries remain competitive in innovation.
To promote an environment of frank and open discussion, the Jameel Clinic event’s attendance was highly curated for an audience of 100 attendees debating through the enforcement of the Chatham House Rule, to allow speakers anonymity for discussing controversial opinions and arguments without being identified as the source.
Rather than hosting an event to generate buzz around AI in health, the Jameel Clinic's goal was to create a space to keep regulators apprised of the most cutting-edge advancements in #AI, while allowing faculty and industry experts to propose new or different approaches to #regulatory frameworks for AI in #health, especially for AI use in #clinical settings and in #drug#development.
AI’s role in medicine is more relevant than ever, as the industry struggles with a post-pandemic labor shortage, increased costs (“Not a salary issue, despite common belief,” said one speaker), as well as high rates of burnout and resignations among health care professionals.
One speaker suggested that priorities for clinical AI deployment should be focused more on operational #tooling rather than patient diagnosis and treatment.
One attendee pointed out a “clear lack of #education across all constituents — not just amongst developer communities and health care systems, but with patients and regulators as well.”
Given that medical doctors are often the primary users of clinical AI tools, a number of the medical doctors present pleaded with regulators to consult them before taking action.
#Data#availability was a key issue for the majority of AI researchers in attendance.
They lamented the lack of data to make their AI tools work effectively.
Many faced barriers such as intellectual property barring access or simply a dearth of large, high-quality datasets.
“Developers can’t spend billions creating data, but the FDA can,” a speaker pointed out during the event.
“There’s a price uncertainty that could lead to underinvestment in AI.”
Speakers from the EU touted the development of a system obligating governments to make health data available for AI researchers.

Meta announced a new AI model called Voicebox yesterday, one it says is the most versatile yet for speech generation, but it’s not releasing it yet: The model is still only a research project, but Meta says can generate speech in six languages from samples as short as two seconds and could be used for “natural, authentic”...
Meta's latest strategy to offer its AI models for free commercial use turns up the heat on OpenAI and Google and their closed-source AI business model.
