A Case Study of Privacy Protection Challenges and Risks in AI-Enabled Healthcare App

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used in healthcare systems and applications (apps) with questions and debates on ethical issues and privacy risks. This research study explores and discusses the ethical challenges, privacy risks, and possible solutions related to protecting user data privacy in AI-enabled healthcare apps. The study is based on the healthcare app named Charlie in one of the fictional case studies designed by Princeton University to elucidate critical thinking and discussions on emerging ethical issues embracing AI.
