Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly of tremendous interest in the medical field. How-ever, failures of medical AI could have serious consequences for both clinical outcomes and the patient experience. These consequences could erode public trust in AI, which could in turn undermine trust in our healthcare institutions. This article makes 2 contributions. First, it describes the major conceptual, technical, and humanistic challenges in medical AI. Second, it proposes a solution that hinges on the education and accreditation of new expert groups who specialize in the development, verification, and operation of medical AI technologies. These groups will be required to maintain trust in our healthcare institutions.
人工智能（AI）在医学领域越来越受到关注。然而，医疗 AI 的失败可能会对临床结果和患者体验产生严重后果。这些后果可能会削弱公众对 AI 的信任，从而破坏对我们医疗机构的信任。本文有两个贡献。首先，它描述了医疗 AI 中的主要概念、技术和人文挑战。其次，它提出了一个解决方案，该方案取决于专门从事医疗 AI 技术开发、验证和操作的新专家组的教育和认证。这些小组将需要维护我们医疗机构的信任。
