008: Shaping the role of AI in the NHS with Haris Shuaib. 🇬🇧🤖🚀
Episode description
Haris Shuaib is the AI Transformation lead at the London AI Centre which is a hub of innovation in healthcare in the UK, recently receiving £16m in funding to scale up AI work in the NHS and being appointed a preferred partner for NVIDIA’s proposed £40m healthcare supercomputer. With a background in theoretical physics, Haris trained as a medical physicist prior to moving into a leadership role in AI in the NHS.
Haris discusses the variety of healthcare AI projects the London AI centre are running, how they select which areas to prioritise, the challenges of healthcare AI on the ground and how as a medical physicist, Haris is paving the way for clinician scientists to take a role in leadership in the rapidly developing AI scene in the NHS.
The lively chat also covers ethics and bias in healthcare AI, conflict resolution between AI and doctor, the role of patients in codesigning AI and whether there is a role for the doctor in the new information age where AI will play a central role.
