Clinical AI thread asks how to handle unsafe user pressure after an uncertain answer

The post shares a State of Clinical AI Report, a NOHARM preprint, and the HAILS course, all centered on one practical safety question: what should an AI do when the safest answer is, “I’m not sure, please get this checked?”
The quoted discussion asks how systems should behave when a user rejects that answer and keeps pushing for a more definite — but potentially unsafe — response. The focus is on clinical AI safety, refusal behavior, and handling uncertainty in high-stakes settings.
