AIDE is a research project that aims to understand the human factors that will help or hinder the implementation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare; identify how stakeholders expect AI to change lives and impact healthcare experience; and determine how concerns might be resolved to promote acceptance and adoption of data-driven technologies. We are studying the perspectives of researchers, health care workers, members of the public, AI developers, and policy experts with the intention to create a sustainable platform to ensure stakeholder involvement in the future of AI implementation, development and use within healthcare.
Reserachers will identify where AI systems are being used/developed in healthcare settings in Oxford (UK) and Osaka (Japan) and consult with various stakeholders, including members of the public, to understand:
-
Knowledge and experience of AI, current and anticipated use in healthcare, and other valuable applications
-
How people learn about developments
-
Factors perceived to influence adoption/implementation
-
What safeguards, controls or types of engagement would inspire trust.
This will allow us to suggest mechanisms for a sustained dialogue on AI in healthcare.

This work is being led by researchers based at the University of Oxford in collaboration with colleagues at Osaka University. It is supported by UK Research and Innovation’s (UKRI) Fund for International Collaboration (FIC) in a joint UK-Japan initiative (Project Reference ES/T007214/1). In Japan the research is supported through the Institute of Science and Technology (JST) with the aim of "designing a sustainable platform with the involvement of citizens and experts to bring the benefits of AI in healthcare to all."
The project name "AIDE" is an abbreviated version of the English name of project "The Benefits of Ensuring AI in Healthcare for All: Designing a Sustainable Platform for Public and Professional Stakeholder Engagement". The acronym reflects our hope that the project will AID the Engagement of key stakeholders in the increased use of AI technologies in healthcare.
