Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) is impacting the society with incredible innovations across the globe, as evidenced by recent media coverage. Integrating AI into healthcare holds promise for improving outcomes in lowincome nations. Addressing the reliability, validity, and fairness of algorithms is essential to reduce bias. Global organizations such as the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), the World Health Organization (WHO), and the European Union promote ethical AI use, guiding its application in healthcare. Philanthropic investment in research is crucial to help develop guidelines that consider the unique needs of marginalized populations. Collaboration between governments, international bodies, researchers, and industry leaders is vital to ensure responsible AI adoption. By prioritizing the welfare of all populations, we can harness AI’s potential to enhance healthcare in low-income countries while mitigating risks.
