In the context of CHF’s commitment to quality improvement in healthcare, CHF supports and recognises the value of automated decision-making and discriminative Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies, which have been used in healthcare for many decades.

However, the sudden rise of generative word modelling, such as ChatGPT, prompts CHF to raise significant concerns, as many features of generative AI software may pose significant risks to consumers when used in a healthcare setting. As such, CHF welcomes the opportunity to provide a submission to the Senate Select Committee on Adopting Artificial Intelligence (AI).

To ensure alignment with the Committee’s Terms of Reference, this submission focuses exclusively on generative AI.
