In this week’s episode, Kim Beesley and Jen Morris, community representatives, from SPA ethics board, speak about AI in health care and in particular, speech pathology practice. As service users Kim and Jen share what they are excited about, and what they would like to feel assured that ethical reasoning is at the centre of any decision making about how and when to use AI.
