Amos Grünebaum: Clinical AI Competence Is Becoming a Patient Safety Imperative

Amos Grünebaum, Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine, shared a post on LinkedIn about a paper published in American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology:

“Happy to announce our newest publication (a true international cooperation with Professors Dudenhausen and Chervenak) in a legacy magazine, the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology (AJOG), the premier US ObGyn journal. This AJOG Clinical Opinion argues that clinical artificial intelligence competence is becoming a patient-safety obligation in obstetrics and gynecology, not a technical hobby.

The central point is that clinicians will increasingly use generative AI for counseling, documentation, evidence retrieval, education, and decision support, but safe use requires physician verification, privacy protection, source checking, and accountability.

We compare AI to prior obstetric technologies such as ultrasound, electronic fetal monitoring, and cell-free DNA screening: each changed what competent practice required rather than replacing clinical judgment.

The article is careful not to overclaim, stating that direct evidence showing improved maternal, fetal, or neonatal outcomes from AI use remains limited and should be a priority for future research.”
