AI technology continues to develop and its impact on orthopaedic applications range from image recognition to clinical decision-making to risk prediction. However, the clinical superiority, ethical, regulatory, and other obstacles remain. This symposium seeks to demonstrate key unresolved and controversial topics that affect the implementation of new AI technologies through a series of focused mini-debates.

Learning Objectives:

At the completion of this activity, participants will be able to:
  • Understand the current state of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, including its potential benefits and pitfalls
  • Debate specific controversies surrounding AI implementation in clinical settings
  • Understand the effects of future AI adoption on the global orthopaedic trauma community
