Commentary | Bull City Citizen Editorial Desk
Duke Health has described an oversight program for clinical algorithms emphasizing safety, equity and effectiveness. That is a useful example of how institutions can discuss the risks of artificial intelligence alongside its promise.
Our view for Durham
As AI moves into public agencies, schools and workplaces, Durham should ask vendors and institutions to explain how systems are tested, who can appeal errors and what personal data are collected. Innovation without public accountability is not inevitable progress. At the same time, a blanket refusal to test new tools can prevent useful advances.
What we want to see next
Our position is to require evidence, clear human responsibility and accessible correction processes before high-stakes systems become routine.
