Abstract

With the development of artificial intelligence technologies and an increase in the amount of data available, data-based medicine has stood out as one of the important fields of research. Artificial intelligence, which derives medical insights by analyzing complex medical data, is expected to play an important role in various fields such as medical image processing, risk analysis, diagnosis, and the production of drug beyond the limitations of existing technologies that simply assist or supplement human activities. In addition, new legal issues are being raised and analyzed in the technological development in the machine and medical fields due to the Big Data and the Fourth Industrial Revolution. This study analyzes these conceptual understandings and examines the changes and types of medical accountability in relation to the use of artificial intelligence and big data before examining the risks and opportunities of using algorithms in the medical field. In addition, we can classify the legal problems resulting from the change of medical responsibility into several types. In particular, the responsibility for data error and for the cases of medical malpractice is analyzed to define the legal limit of responsibility.
