Study reveals AI chatbots can detect race, but racial bias reduces response empathy

Researchers at MIT, NYU, and UCLA develop an approach to help evaluate whether large language models like GPT-4 are equitable enough to be clinically viable for mental health support.

AI in health should be regulated, but don’t forget about the algorithms, researchers say

In a recent commentary, a team from MIT, Equality AI, and Boston University highlights the gaps in regulation for AI models and non-AI algorithms in health care.

When an antibiotic fails: MIT scientists are using AI to target “sleeper” bacteria

Most antibiotics target metabolically active bacteria, but with artificial intelligence, researchers can efficiently screen compounds that are lethal to dormant microbes.

What to do about AI in health?

Although artificial intelligence in health has shown great promise, pressure is mounting for regulators around the world to act, as AI tools demonstrate potentially harmful outcomes.

Stratospheric safety standards: How aviation could steer regulation of AI in health

An interdisciplinary team of researchers thinks health AI could benefit from some of the aviation industry’s long history of hard-won lessons that have created one of the safest activities today.

How an archeological approach can help leverage biased data in AI to improve medicine

Although computer scientists may initially treat data bias and error as a nuisance, researchers argue it’s a hidden treasure trove for reflecting societal values.

MIT researchers combine deep learning and physics to fix motion-corrupted MRI scans

The challenge involves than just a blurry JPEG. Fixing motion artifacts in medical imaging requires a more sophisticated approach.

MIT scientists build a system that can generate AI models for biology research

BioAutoMATED, an open-source, automated machine-learning platform, aims to help democratize artificial intelligence for research labs.

Is medicine ready for AI? Doctors, computer scientists, and policymakers are cautiously optimistic

With the artificial intelligence conversation now mainstream, the 2023 MIT-MGB AI Cures conference saw attendance double from previous years.

Speeding up drug discovery with diffusion generative models

MIT researchers built DiffDock, a model that may one day be able to find new drugs faster than traditional methods and reduce the potential for adverse side effects.
