Abstract BACKGROUND
“Artificial intelligence” (AI) is a broad term that refers to technology that enables robots and computers to mimic human intellect. Over the past few decades, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has gained unprecedented attention and is being called the fourth industrial revolution. But revolutions rarely come without side-effects. Various concerns have been raised as regards the unique properties and risks inherent to AI technologies. Hence the Aim of this study was to Assess Ethical Perspectives of Health Professionals In Usage Of Artificial Intelligence/Robotics In Health Care.
METHOD
A cross sectional questionnaire study was conducted among the Health Care Professionals. The questionnaire consisted of two parts. First part collected data related toYears of Experience in Health Careand second part collected the Knowledge on Ethical Perspectives of Usage of Artificial Intelligence/Robotics In Health Care. The questions were circulated through Google forms.
RESULTS
A total of 164 Health Professionals participated in the survey. 31.7% had more than 5 years of experience in health care and 68.3% of them had less than 5 years of experience in health care. 97% and 95.1 % of them were aware of use of Artificial intelligence and Robotics in Health care respectively.
52.4% agreed that AI based on machine learning poses several risks to data protection. 45.7% agreed that machine learning systems are not transparent. 51.8% agreed that Machine learning systems intentionally or inadvertently can cause reproduction of already existing biases. When Concerns on Autonomy was raised, 61% agreed that AI can reduce individual autonomy, 27.4% strongly agreed that AI and Robotics can cause Loss of human decision-making. 53% agreed that Robotic systems replaces human contact with technology, which is a fundamental ethical issue. 48.2% agreed that the inaccuracy in the system algorithm of AI and Robotics can cause unfair outcomes. 63.4% agreed that the robotics is an evolving system that is inherently and continuously changing, therefore the risk of harms needs to be evaluated. Practitioners and hospitals using AI and Robotics needs to be trained and hence have the ultimate responsibility of its use. Only 46.3% of them strongly agreed. 53% agreed that the use of AI without human mediation raises concerns about vulnerabilities. 50% agreed that Implementation of guidelines or set standards can minimize bias.


CONCLUSION
The development of formal AI training programmes should be prioritised in order to promote the logical and empirically based distribution of information in medical schools and hospitals. In order to inform policy creation and curriculum modifications for medical education, more extensive research is required to determine how medical professionals and students see artificial intelligence (AI). This will help to spur innovation by igniting desire to developing technology.
