Ethics and EU AI Act in Cases of Work Disability Risk and Alzheimer’s Disease Risk Prediction
摘要
Improvements in AI technologies have made it feasible to develop new types of medical AI tools. However, these tools raise new kinds of questions, especially in relation to the ethics and EU AI Act compliance. We analysed two cases of AI tools developed to predict medical risks, the risk of work disability (Case A) and the risk of getting Alzheimer’s disease (Case B). We observed both cases using the Ethical AI and the EU AI Act as frameworks, noted that they both classify as high-risk systems, and that bringing them from the research environment to production would require a lot of work and compliance due to the regulations related to high-risk AI systems.
