As with any use of automation, we need to ensure SMEs are engaged in validating the inputs and recommendations provided by the AI tools. Without those, we risk trusting something which is inherently untrustworthy.

Ensuring accountability and transparency in AI decision-making, especially in critical sectors like healthcare and finance, requires a multi-faceted approach.

First, establishing clear audit trails for AI decisions is essential. This means recording the data, algorithms, and rationale behind each decision so that human experts can review and validate outcomes. Second, regular bias assessments and testing should be mandatory, ensuring that the algorithms are fair and don't disproportionately impact specific groups.

Additionally, involving interdisciplinary teams (including ethicists, domain experts, and AI developers) can help mitigate risks. Finally, it's crucial to have a human-in-the-loop framework, where critical decisions can be reviewed by humans, especially when dealing with sensitive cases.

Ai is using in this sector from long time ago. I worked in that domain for 20 years. Some people do not understand that AI entities just create a result with probablities asociated to each one. Then, the final decision is ALWAYS in human being hands. "Human in the loop" is the key driver in AI since 40 years ago (and perhaps more than that, but I did not use AI before that).
