Should patients be notified when AI directly impacts their medical care? Should healthcare organizations be required to take on costly monitoring of AI-enabled clinical tools when this would prevent many U.S. hospitals from adopting AI at all?

Our faculty committee member [I. Glenn Cohen](https://www.ethics.harvard.edu/people/i-glenn-cohen) weighs in. Cohen’s recent JAMA article, "[New Guidance on Responsible use of AI](https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2842278)," responds to the Joint Commission and Coalition for Health AI (CHAI)'s [guidance](https://www.jointcommission.org/en-us/knowledge-library/news/2025-09-jc-and-chai-release-initial-guidance-to-support-responsible-ai-adoption) on the responsible use of AI in healthcare.
