On Augmenting Patients
This document summarizes a presentation on augmenting patients given by Jack Park at the 2018 Sage Assembly Conference. It discusses the need to augment individuals' abilities to make informed healthcare choices in the complex emerging biomedical field. Key issues include incomplete information, data silos, and lack of trust. The presentation argues that AI alone cannot solve these problems and that collaborative solutions are needed where algorithms augment collective sensemaking between humans. It presents a proposed project called Bibliomizer that would create federated collaboration spaces for patients, scientists, and others to integrate tools and have truth-seeking discussions aided by AI. The goal is to open doors and create new platforms for connection, understanding, and shared wisdom creation.

AI Alone Will Not Solve Our Problems • The world is complex, we need all the cognitive capacity we can get • Algorithms can harness an expanding mass of information to govern and inform our choices but are often developed in a nontransparent manner that obstructs the ability to identify biases or evaluate appropriate use •Algorithms are limited to explicit knowledge, miss deeper sensemaking
- 5. Towards a Collaborative Solution Space • We need algorithms that augment collective sensemaking, working with humans • Collective sensemakingrequires a journey of impedance matching of framings (which are silo-like) • Ditto for connecting dots which may reside in different contexts and framings • Collectivities include stakeholders, and thus emoto-cognitive journeys • There is a need to both open the doors and to create new platforms for connection, understanding, and shared wisdom-creation.
