Cancer Patients Underrepresented in Generative AI Research for Oncology, Study Finds
Source Summary
An international research team led by Flinders University conducted a scoping review of 2,441 records and found that only 32 studies examined cancer patients', survivors', and caregivers' perspectives on generative AI in their care. The findings, published in the European Journal of Cancer, highlight a significant gap in patient voice in AI development for oncology.
Why it matters
The scarcity of patient input in generative AI development for cancer care risks creating tools that do not align with patient needs and preferences.
