In The Coming Wave: Technology, Power, and the Twenty First Century's Greatest Dilemma, M. Suleyman, CEO of Microsoft AI and formerly of Deepmind wrote, "The irony of general-purpose technologies is that, before long, they become invisible and we take them for granted." ChatGPT made a big mainstream splash over a year ago, and the general public's interest in AI shifted. But, is this AI phenomenon really new or is it a rapid scaling up at an exponential rate? The systems known by name were not created overnight. From helping write consent form key information sections to allowing researches to map brain waves and read the thoughts of a human being, it all happened yesterday. This session will explore how to stop playing catch-up and look forward at how IRBs and the research community at large will need to address the interwoven existence of AI in the fabric of our daily lives.

Learning Objectives:

  • Explore the privacy issues AI poses when utilized in studies involving identifiable information, genetic testing, collection of brain waves, etc.
  • Examine how AI cannot be addressed by policies or practices of the IRB alone, or even the HRPP
  • Discuss whether AI is creating a third category or research outside of the binary biomedical vs. social/behavioral we have operated under for decades
