JRC: AI can improve disease surveillance in Europe, but human oversight is essential
The European Commission's Joint Research Centre says AI can improve disease surveillance in Europe, but human oversight remains essential. A separate article covers the secondary use of data under the European Health Data Space (EHDS), which also supports AI development.
Who is affected and how
- health policy
- Surveillance AI must be designed with human oversight; EHDS data will be opened up for research and AI purposes.
- health IT
- Data management must be designed to comply with the EHDS rules on secondary use of data.
