Introduction  \n1.1 What’s in this document?  \nThis document discusses key ethical considerations surrounding the pipeline of research and development activities focused on translating AI into healthcare. The focus is narrowed to three pertinent ethical issues: bias, human involvement, and risk prediction. Each theme is discussed in relation to a Singapore research case study and offers recommendations grounded in an understanding of local research practice. The guidance presented intends to offer focused insights into resolving local real-world challenges.2  \n1.2 Who is it for?  \nThis document is for researchers, research institution","cbCaihqqFlAu98Fp","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihqqFlAu98Fp","pdf",857281,"English","# Introduction\n## What’s in this document?\n## Who is it for?\n## What should you know?\n## Methodology\n# Bias—Is it ever justifiable to implement biased AI?\n## What is bias in AI?\n## Why not just remove the bias?\n## How should utility and equity be considered in evaluating the implementation of biased AI?\n## What principles apply in deciding when implementing a biased AI is justified?\n## Strategic Measures to Mitigate Bias in Practice – What can you do?\n# Human Involvement – How and to what extent?\n## What does human involvement in AI mean?\n## Leaving Humans Out of the Loop – What Are the Main Concerns?\n## What principles apply in deciding the role of human involvement?\n## Strategic Measures in Practice to Ensure Appropriate Human Involvement – What can you do?\n# The Risks of Risk Prediction – How much risk is reasonable in an already risky world?\n## What is risk prediction in AI?\n## Assessing Risk – Are AI risks exceptional?\n## Moving Forward with Implementation – How should risk mitigation strategies be evaluated?\n## What principles apply in deciding a risk threshold for implementation and risk mitigation strategies?\n## Strategic Measures in Practice to Evaluate Reasonable Risk Involvement – What can you do?\n# Conclusion\n# Annex","[{\"question\":\"What three ethical issues does the document focus on for translational AI in healthcare?\",\"answer\":\"The document focuses on bias, the extent and criteria for human involvement, and risk prediction.
