Physicians Urged to Validate AI Tools Before Clinical Use
- Most AI-based dermatology apps lack validation or transparency about their accuracy and data sources.
- Practicing clinicians should understand the data sources behind any AI tools they use and ensure transparency.
- AI model performance can drift over time, necessitating ongoing validation to ensure sustained accuracy.
- AI promises much but requires workflow redesigns, not just technology plug-ins, to realize full potential.
- Physicians should have a basic grasp of AI concepts like data sources and drift to appropriately evaluate AI tools.
