AI:a use case for global health

Artificial intelligence (AI) has many potential applications in health care. With the growing demand for and supply of AI applications, AI policies and regulations have become a higher policy priority across governments and geographies. Alongside this, increased international collaboration aims to support decision-making, underpinned by cross-country learning and a growing evidence base. This paper summarises current challenges with respect to AI in health care, evidence generation of AI, policy development with regards to AI and proposes priority areas to support AI research and policy development. As policymakers grapple with the question of how to regulate AI health technologies, there is a clear need for international collaboration founded on robust research.
