A survey of oncologists highlighted ethical issues over the use of AI in cancer care and revealed some contradictory views about how best to integrate these tools.

A recent survey highlighted ethical concerns US oncologists have about using artificial intelligence to help make cancer treatment decisions and revealed some contradictory views about how best to integrate these tools into practice. Most respondents, for instance, said patients should not be expected to understand how AI tools work, but many also felt patients could make treatment decisions based on AI-generated recommendations.

In the current study, researchers asked 204 oncologists from 37 states for their views on the ethical implications of using AI for cancer care. The researchers assessed respondents' answers to various questions, including whether to provide informed consent for AI use and how oncologists would approach a scenario where the AI model and the oncologist recommended a different treatment regimen.
