- Health data is highly fragmented and strictly controlled, limiting AI development; governments should enable appropriate data sharing
- Regulators struggle to keep pace with AI innovation; international collaboration needed on standards and oversight
- Health systems incentivize volume over efficiency; governments must change incentives to enable AI cost savings
- Firms must ensure products are safe, reliable and accountable; humans must remain in control
