Patients feel pressured to consent to AI note-taking and worry about creating extra work for doctors if they opt out. The system should be designed so that opting out is genuinely optional, pressure-free, and does not negatively impact the doctor's workflow or the patient's care experience.
My doctor's office introduced an AI note-taking system in the summer and we were all asked to give consent. I did not give mine because I have serious qualms about all things AI. But it occurs to me that I may be making more work for my doctor if he has to transcribe notes from my visits in a different way, and I feel a bit bad. Does anyone else have little ethical problems that you can't square around refusing AI?
