Hundreds of nurses gathered at Kaiser Permanente’s San Francisco Medical Center this week to protest against the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare.
The demonstration was organised by the California Nurses Association, who believe the hospital industry is rushing to implement AI technology that is untested and unregulated – and could harm patients.
According to a video posted by the San Francisco Chronicle to X, nurses brandished signs reading ‘Trust Nurses Not AI’ and chanted “AI has got to go!”
The association is calling for nurses and all union members to be involved in the decision-making process for the deployment of AI in “every step”, with Kaiser Permanente an early adopter of AI and other data-driven technologies.
