EIT Health pilot of the AI & ethics guidelines of the European Commission’s High-Level Group

AI and Ethics in the Health Innovation Community:

Important and rapid progress is being made in AI for health and care innovation. In parallel, the issue of responsible, ethical use of AI has risen to the top of political agendas. A High-Level Group established by the European Commission issued guidelines for AI and ethics in April 2019. Incoming European Commission President, Ursula von der Leyen, has committed to putting forward AI legislation in the first 100 days of her mandate. Ethical use of AI is of the utmost importance for EIT Health, a network of best-in-class health innovators backed by the European Union.
