The key policy areas that must be addressed in AI healthcare policy are public safety and privacy while maintaining world leadership. AI healthcare policy will continue to evolve over the next two years.  2. AI healthcare places a greater reliance on data and post-market surveillance after approval. Implementing this new way of operating so that it does not restrict innovation and cause unnecessary costs is essential for the FDA to consider.  3. AI consists of various programming methodologies, each with different vulnerabilities depending on the context. Regulations must address subtypes of AI. *Please note that this interview is informational and is not meant as an endorsement/support/advocacy.
