Study Finds AI Falls Short When Analyzing Medical Data
A study conducted at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai has found that artificial intelligence (AI) tools trained to detect pneumonia on chest X-rays suffered significant decreases in performance when tested on data from outside health systems. These findings suggest that unless AI in the medical space is carefully tested for performance across a wide range of populations, the deep learning models may not perform as accurately as expected.
