This is an excellent course on the regulatory and operational considerations of AI solutions in the medical field. Forums, threads, and collaboration with cohorts are disabled (not good). Big negative are the constant social justice warrior tropes, unconscious bias, racial injustice, income inequality, NY Times view of the world, etc. that take away from the value of the material which is extremely good otherwise. There are problems with audio, tests, and the use of paywall restricted content. Highly recommended, but be ready for a heavy dose of politics with your medicine. I have not seen this material elsewhere and it is a very time-efficient course.

Interesting subject, and very knowledgeable instructor, but the lectures felt like a lot of course materials distilled into walls of text and a lot of bullet points, with whole chapters just explained with a sentence or two. The "reflection questions" also felt like just repeating the bullet points. May be more reflective of me as a student than the course, but nevertheless. I would have preferred a smaller number of mental frameworks or acronyms to learn and more in-depth instead with real-life examples. There was also an error with the final quiz. Questions 5 and 7 were identical, I gave the same answer but one was rated correct and one incorrect:

Question 5

True or False - AI Solutions that involve an operational action paired with the outcome have greater clinical benefit thank those that have a medical action paired with the outcome

Answer: False.

Correct

Both can be very beneficial

Question 7

True or False - AI Solutions that involve an operational action paired with the outcome have greater clinical benefit thank those that have a medical action paired with the outcome

Answer: False.

Incorrect

Both can be very beneficial

While a great deal of issues where covered, they where all mentioned as of equal significance. It is not easy to follow which are fundamentals and which issues follow as next. There where not enough emphasis given on the main challenges. Looked like a machine gun shooting info. At the end I was just able to remember a small piece of all that.

The course has abundant information to evaluate AI applications in Healthcare. Thanks to the instructor who gave clear guidance on the whole product life cycle of AI application. The course includes AI model setup and development (data management, model training, model validation), clinical validation and AI application deployment and AI monitoring, regulations. The well prepared instruction material is very impressive. Really enjoy the learning. Would recommend to others.

The instructress was very clear in articulating concepts. Again, pace of course is considered fast and for me. While I passed, this is only my beginning. Will need to work on the job to fully appreciated the concepts. Nonetheless, this has been a very good course that challenges a broader thinking before one jumps onto the bandwagon.

The course was extremely helpful in understand the principles and guidelines to keep in mind while talking an AI model into the real world. It was well structured, with enough depth to understand the basics while also giving me topics that I'd want to further dive into

Good course on an important but fairly dry topic. The exams and practice questions were filled with typos and some mistakes unfortunately. More interactivity would be appreciated for properly learning the material.

Instructor is reading a script, better slides required particularly when reciting examples. Could be better structured.

Lots of material, but the presentation was not in line with good learning practices. Information was presented very rapidly and dryly. Course bounced around a lot from topic to topic without a clear summary of what was learned at the end. Lots of industry buzzwords without really clearly connecting how to apply in real life situations.

The instructor was learned and charismatic .She spoke with authority of a mountain climber on top of the world. Developed deep respect for her.

It is power of Coursera that enabled people like us from remote location in Pakistan to virtually cross Atlantic and reach out the western coast of Pacific Ocean to be exposed to such an exciting area of knowledge from Stanford.

Being a computer engineer now I can make sense of few little things all those people in white coats are talking about.

Thanks to the course teachers , Coursera and Stanford. A trinity of knowledge.

I have gained valuable insights into the intersection of artificial intelligence and healthcare. This course has deepened my understanding of the challenges, opportunities, and ethical considerations associated with deploying AI in healthcare settings. I have learned about the importance of rigorous evaluation methodologies to ensure the safety, efficacy, and reliability of AI systems in healthcare.

great overview of the general structure of what is important in deciding which clinical questions are feasible for "solving with AI" and the performance metrics associated with them. Also covers in high level, the regulatory aspects of various sections of development of an AI solution for health outcomes that are actionable and impactful to the patients, on a personal through population level.

Pro: The course provide a fresh knowledge regarding how to evaluate AI. The concepts and terms are well explained.

Con : The reflect question may consider AI to evaluate question eg. It should be have at least one key word in answer in order to get pass.
