AI虽被寄望改善医疗，但可能反而削弱医患关系。
High hopes for "Deep Medicine"? AI, economics, and the future of care
- 批判性审视AI在医疗中的应用前景
- 指出AI可能加剧医患疏离与职业倦怠
- 适合关注医疗科技伦理的读者
在《Deep Medicine》一书中，埃里克·托波尔主张人工智能的发展将彻底改变医疗文化与实践。未来数十年内，随着AI技术日益成熟，医生的日常任务或将大量交由其承担。托波尔是推动医疗AI益处最有力的倡导者之一，他相信这将使医生有更多时间专注于对患者的共情关怀。然而，多项因素表明，现实图景可能截然不同：医疗AI的广泛应用不仅未能重建亲密的医患关系，反而可能进一步削弱治疗关系，威胁医生与患者的职业满意度和心理福祉。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
In the much-celebrated book Deep Medicine, Eric Topol argues that the development of artificial intelligence for health care will lead to a dramatic shift in the culture and practice of medicine. In the next several decades, he suggests, AI will become sophisticated enough that many of the everyday tasks of physicians could be delegated to it. Topol is perhaps the most articulate advocate of the benefits of AI in medicine, but he is hardly alone in spruiking its potential to allow physicians to dedicate more of their time and attention to providing empathetic care for their patients in the future. Unfortunately, several factors suggest a radically different picture for the future of health care. Far from facilitating a return to a time of closer doctor-patient relationships, the use of medical AI seems likely to further erode therapeutic relationships and threaten professional and patient satisfaction.
