Researchers find bias in chest X-ray AI classifiers against women, Hispanic and Medicaid patients

A study by the University of Toronto, Vector Institute, and MIT found that AI classifiers trained on public chest X-ray datasets exhibited racial, gender, and socioeconomic bias. Female patients, Hispanic patients, and those with Medicaid insurance were disproportionately affected, with the classifiers often providing incorrect diagnoses for Medicaid patients. The researchers attributed the bias to imbalanced training data and called for rigorous fairness analyses before clinical deployment.

Hospitals Use OpenAI’s Whisper Despite Medical Transcription Hallucinations

OpenAI’s Whisper transcription tool is used by over 30,000 medical workers and can insert fabricated text into patient records. Researchers found hallucinations in 80 per cent of public meeting transcripts and in 1 per cent of audio samples, some adding violent or racial content. Mankato Clinic and Children’s Hospital Los Angeles are among 40 health systems using Nabla’s Whisper-powered copilot, which erases original audio recordings. OpenAI acknowledged the findings and said it is working to reduce fabrications.

Kmart's facial recognition system for refund fraud found unlawful by Privacy Commissioner

Kmart Australia deployed facial recognition technology in 28 stores from June 2020 to July 2022, capturing biometric data of every customer entering the stores and those at returns counters to detect refund fraud. The system collected sensitive information without notifying customers or obtaining their consent. The Australian Privacy Commissioner found that Kmart breached the Privacy Act, as the exemption for unlawful activity did not justify the indiscriminate and disproportionate collection of biometric data from thousands of individuals. Kmart has ceased using the system and cooperated with the investigation.

Hospital Denies Pain Medication to Patient Based on Narx Score

Elizabeth Amirault, a 34-year-old chronic pain patient, was denied narcotic pain medication during a hospital visit in Fort Wayne, Indiana, in August 2022. A nurse practitioner told her that her Narx Score, generated by Bamboo Health's NarxCare platform, was too high to prescribe opioids. The algorithm uses prescription drug monitoring data to assess risk of misuse, but critics say it can harm patients by cutting off needed care. Amirault believes her score was unfairly high due to her multiple surgeries and doctors.
