NHSX has published guidelines for the health service on the use of AI, emphasising the need for the workforce to develop the appropriate skills. Titled Artificial intelligence: how to get it right, the document from the Government's policy unit for digital and data in healthcare includes a section on the challenges facing the NHS workforce in using the technology. Other sections take in an overview of AI, its governance, the data that it uses and'what good looks like' and how to monitor the impact of the technology. It says a primary focus will be on expertise in critical thinking at senior levels to evaluate the potential for AI to provide benefits in any given situation. This will include a technical understanding of requirements for the evidence base and the computing resource needed. In addition, NHS staff will need support in understanding the ethical considerations, and there will be a need for analytical skills to interpret complex information.
