尽管人工智能（AI）为南非的医疗保健提供了巨大的希望，但现有的政策框架不足以鼓励这一领域的创新。需要实用、具体和解决方案驱动的政策建议，以鼓励创建和使用人工智能系统。本文考虑了需要制定政策的五个不同的问题：（i）过时的立法;（ii）数据和算法偏见;（iii）对医疗保健工作人员的影响;（iv）强加责任困境;（v）南非医疗保健人工智能系统缺乏创新和发展。通过直接解决这些问题的国家政策框架，对于确保以安全，负责任和受监管的方式为医疗保健进行人工智能开发和部署至关重要。
Despite the tremendous promise offered by artificial intelligence (AI) for healthcare in South Africa, existing policy frameworks are inadequate for encouraging innovation in this field. Practical, concrete and solution-driven policy recommendations are needed to encourage the creation and use of AI systems. This article considers five distinct problematic issues which call for policy development: (i) outdated legislation; (ii) data and algorithmic bias; (iii) the impact on the healthcare workforce; (iv) the imposition of liability dilemma; and (v) a lack of innovation and development of AI systems for healthcare in South Africa. The adoption of a national policy framework that addresses these issues directly is imperative to ensure the uptake of AI development and deployment for healthcare in a safe, responsible and regulated manner.
