Nature Review: Critical Safety and Security Issues of Generative AI in Healthcare
EricTopol · x · 2026-08-19
A review published in Nature examines the safety and security challenges of integrating generative AI, particularly Large Language Models, into clinical care. While LLMs show potential across healthcare domains, their broad adoption introduces new responsibilities, vulnerabilities, and threats. The paper reviews literature on the security of the models themselves, their integration into hospital workflows, and interactions with human health, emphasizing the need for risk mitigation before widespread clinical use.
