A new study just upended AI safety https://thever.ge/HfRV #Anthropic #OpenAI #News #AI

With @ihabli.bsky.social and @marksujan.bsky.social we wrote about how we need to look at the whole system and how AI can augment rather than substitute for humans. 4/ pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

New AI tools that record and summarise doctor-patient conversations are becoming increasingly common. But what are they, and can they be trusted? @stokel.bsky.social reports www.bmj.com/content/389/...

🆕In this report we analyse a sample of 13 Patient Safety Incident Response Plans, reflecting on what these tell us about the implementation of new Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF) in the NHS. www.pslhub.org/learn/patien...

Self-Assessment Framework for Event Response (SAFER) Oversight: A tool for effective Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF) governance - a new article by @marksujan.bsky.social added to the hub. www.pslhub.org/learn/invest... #patientsafety

We're all set up at the Chartered Institute of Ergonomics and Human Factors' #EHF2025. Be sure to pop by our stand to chat with our Editorial Manager, Lianne Sherlock, and be one of the first to buy our brand new book, Human Factors and Ergonomics in Health and Social Care, released today!

Now available to pre-order! "At last, a book about Human Factors & Ergonomics (HF/E) in healthcare written by chartered professionals who are highly experienced in related research, education, and practice and have a particular focus on patient safety." - Paul Bowie, NHS Education for Scotland

We are excited to release a short course on AGI safety! The course offers a concise and accessible introduction to AI alignment problems and our technical / governance approaches, consisting of short recorded talks and exercises (75 minutes total). deepmindsafetyresearch.medium.com/1072adb7912c

'Moving beyond the AI sales pitch – Empowering clinicians to ask the right questions about clinical AI' @ihabli.bsky.social, @marksujan.bsky.social & Tom Lawton reframe common questions to help clinicians navigate the tech-centric narrative around clinical AI. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

The fifth paper from my (nearly complete) PhD thesis on safety in complex sociotechnical systems has been published. Proud of this one: a case study of organisational adaptation to COVID-19 in critical national infrastructure authors.elsevier.com/a/1kHRh3IVV9... #PhDsky #ResearchSky

Interesting discussions on today's CIEHF webinar launching the new human-centred healthcare AI guidance. Questions around relying on AI vs monitoring the outputs critically. And what users need to know - and who's going to support them. ergonomics.org.uk/resource/int...

Interesting two days at IMO in London attending the International Maritime Human Factors Symposium. Lots of focus on seafarer mental health and wellbeing, which was great to learn more about. When it comes to learning from accidents, I think NHS England's PSIRF could serve as inspiration.

Fascinating reflections and insights on #patientsafety

Our pragmatic recommendations in @jama.com on how health care delivery systems and clinicians should ensure safe AI and safe use of AI. Need rigorous local monitoring and oversight so AI can improve patient and system outcomes. #medsky With @deansittig.bsky.social jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

Established in September 2023, the Patient Safety Education Network, hosted on the hub, is for everyone working in #patientsafety education and training in the UK. In this blog, Chris Elston reflects on the growth and development of the network www.pslhub.org/learn/profes...

The problem with "open A.I. systems" is that they're not open. www.nature.com/articles/s41... "We reveal a map of open AI which shows that.... [it] is highly dependent on the resources of a few large corporate actors, who effectively control the AI industry and the research ecology beyond."

The Patient Safety Partner (PSP) role was introduced in 2022 by NHS England as part of its Framework for involving patients in patient safety. This page brings together a toolkit of resources, designed to share insights and information about the PSP role www.pslhub.org/learn/patien... #patientsafety

NEW EPISODE: Sarah Sharples chats with Barry about the application of Human Factors within Government from her perspective as Chief Scientific Advisor in the UK Department of Transport. www.1202podcast.com/sarah-sharpl... #HumanFactors #HF

Given so much AI hype, how do humans maximize patient safety benefits & determine signal vs noise? We propose 5 use cases to enable scalable sociotechnical interventions (not just technology but also people and processes) to address intractable patient safety gaps jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

Patient Safety: Emerging Applications of Safety Science - published in the summer, this new book looks at how to apply good practice for the reduction of avoidable harm www.pslhub.org/learn/patien... #patientsafety
