Statement on Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Artificial intelligence (AI) machine learning and deep learning algorithms offer great opportunities and benefits for patients and the delivery of safe health services. While AI can contribute positively to the provision of healthcare services, registered practitioners must be aware of its limitations.

Patient safety is paramount. To safely integrate AI into practice you must be able to assert effective control over AI supported systems. To do this you will need to develop your knowledge, skills and attributes to safely and effectively use AI in practice.

Students, education providers, clinical educators and practitioners all need to be aware and engaged in the changing capabilities of technology, its impact on practice and implications for the provision of safe, accessible, effective and timely healthcare services.
