Summary
Brief summary
Background Artificial intelligence (AI) has become increasingly capable over the last decade. AI technologies are approaching or surpassing human abilities at complex tasks. Specifically, in healthcare, AI is approaching or surpassing human clinician ability in multiple narrow domains. Research on AI in medicine has been increasing worldwide and across almost all specialties. General public opinion has seen to be positive in several surveys, with the public expressing high hopes that AI could be used to improve healthcare. Interaction with AI technologies is likely to become an increasingly common aspect of healthcare for both patients and physicians. Despite these trends, there is no data regarding health consumers’ attitudes, and opinions towards the use of AI in emergency medicine and healthcare. Aim Assess health consumers’ attitudes towards the use of AI in emergency medicine and healthcare. Plan We will conduct voluntary semi-structured interviews with a representative sample of health consumers until thematic saturation is achieved. Health consumers will be recruited from consumer advocacy groups such as the Consumer and Community Involvement Program, and we will conduct the interview either in person or over the phone (at a time of their convenience). We will continue interviews as required until we achieve appropriate representation and theme saturation. We will undertake qualitative analysis on transcribed interviews to uncover attitudes and themes.
