Dr. Lipi Roy's Talk
AI has the potential to revolutionize healthcare, yet it can also create harm when misused. In this talk, Dr. Lipi Roy will examine how AI can be applied to women’s health: addressing misinformation, expanding access, and offering more personalized care for women and girls globally.
Drawing on data, lived stories, and emerging case studies, she will also raise the difficult questions we cannot yet answer. What ethical guardrails are needed? Where should human oversight begin and end? And how do we ensure AI serves as a protector, not a villain, in shaping the future of women’s health?
