Deep Analysis & Enterprise Applications
Select a topic to dive deeper, then explore the specific findings from the research, rebuilt as interactive, enterprise-focused modules.
- HCI community has extensively explored strategies for AI model fairness, accountability, transparency, and trust.
- AI documentation (e.g., model cards, factsheets, datasheets) has been proposed as a solution to these challenges.
- Existing frameworks often overlook end-user needs, especially in high-risk domains like healthcare, potentially leading to unintended consequences (lost autonomy, unwarranted/withheld trust, unrecognized biases).
- FDA's Drug Facts labels (since 1999) communicate usage and risk in plain language for OTC drugs.
- Drug facts boxes (for prescription meds) provide study findings and comprehensive information.
- Model facts labels (Sendak et al.) aid frontline clinicians in understanding AI (intended uses, directions, warnings, mechanisms, validation, performance), but did not consider patient perspectives.
- Trust is key to foster adoption and effective use of AI systems, defined as users' willingness to adopt and continue using AI in cardiology.
- Intrinsic trust: arises from inherent qualities of AI system (accuracy, reliability, performance).
- Extrinsic trust: shaped by external factors (organization reputation, regulatory approvals, third-party endorsements).
- Prototypes integrated both intrinsic and extrinsic trust cues to enhance patient trust judgments.

Case Study: AF Watch Implementation Success
A hypothetical scenario involving an 'AF Watch' smartphone app demonstrated the power of comprehensive AI fact labels. Patients, informed by details on accuracy, FDA clearance, and clinician endorsements, reported significantly higher trust and willingness to adopt the technology for monitoring atrial fibrillation. The transparency around limitations further solidified trust, showing that honesty builds confidence. 92% Patient Adoption Rate

Strategic Implementation Roadmap for AI Fact Labels
A phased approach ensures seamless integration and maximum impact of patient-centered AI documentation.
Phase 1: Needs Assessment & Prototyping
Conduct patient and clinician interviews to identify key information needs and trust cues. Develop initial prototypes based on existing frameworks and expert feedback.
Phase 2: Iterative Design & Feedback
Refine prototypes through multiple rounds of patient feedback-gathering sessions. Incorporate insights on clarity, comprehensibility, and integration into existing workflows.
Phase 3: Integration with Clinical Systems
Develop mechanisms to seamlessly embed AI fact labels into EHRs, patient portals, and consent forms. Train clinicians on how to use labels to facilitate shared decision-making.
Phase 4: Post-Deployment Monitoring & Updates
Establish processes for continuous monitoring of AI model performance and updates to fact labels. Ensure ongoing patient education and feedback loops.
