Learning Collaborative: Augmented Intelligence (AI) Governance

The AMA STEPS Forward® Innovation Academy Learning Collaboratives are designed to help implement organizational improvements in important areas of practice. Guided by subject matter experts, participants are encouraged to share, learn, iterate, and improve upon their own efforts in a supportive, communal environment.

The AMA uses the term "augmented intelligence" to emphasize AI's role in assisting and enhancing human intelligence, rather than replacing it. The AI governance learning collaborative will help participants build a framework for the implementation of AI that supports the ethical, equitable, responsible and transparent use of AI in practice.

• Critically assess systems to better understand current use of AI, existing governance structures and gaps/challenges that exist
• Draft an initial AI governance framework tailored to participants’ organizations, including policies, procedures and roles for oversight
