Pew: Americans largely unsure about AI in healthcare
While many Americans are adopting AI chatbots for medical advice, they remain wary and concerned about how much generative AI is incorporated into traditional healthcare. New data shows that most respondents view knowing if a doctor uses AI in their care as a fundamental right, yet only 22% report confidently understanding its function. Experts warn that broad adoption of healthcare AI requires patient trust, clear disclosure, and stringent oversight.
