Through Advarra’s Council for Responsible Use of #AI in Clinical Trials, we worked with a diverse group from academia and industry to create a framework that introduces a practical, risk-based approach based on the degree of AI autonomy and patient impact. Access the document: hubs.la/Q04d5zKW0
#GenAI increases the costs of over-reliance on weak & easily ‘gameable’ quantitative proxies for #research_evaluation. Brian Earp, Seb Porsdam Mann, @kristiholmes.bsky.social & I suggest that reforms should be organized around ‘distinctly human contributions' academic.oup.com/rev/article/...
Generative AI can and should accelerate research evaluation reform to better recognize ‘distinctly human contributions’
