By continuing to fail to address deeper #PoliticalDeterminantsOfHealth, #EconomicDeterminantsOfHealth, and #CommercialDeterminantsOfHealth, albeit at times differently than its tech predecessors, AI engages in the #PoliticsOfAvoidance 8/8

7- CONTINUES, DISRUPTS: AI adoption requires infrastructure investments (ex: electric grids, Internet), reminiscent of challenges faced and yet-to-be-fixed by other tech, such as ultra-cold chain vaccine storage

But, incentives to mine health data may overcome these barriers 7/8

6-CONTINUES, DISRUPTS: Fixing health workforce shortages w/ AI continues to ignore deep drivers of these shortages; ex: HIC immigration policies designed to attract LMIC talent

But, brain drain may be different under AI, as jobs shift sector from LMIC med, to HIC med-tech 6/8

1- CONTINUES: Private sector interests influencing developments in global health through extractivism, and with persistent regulatory gaps

2- CONTINUES: Philanthropic power facilitating private sector access 3/8

What is avoided when #GlobalHealth prioritizes technological solutions to problems with deep-seated political, economic, and commercial determinants?

To answer this, we develop seven areas where AI both continues and disrupts past tech legacies 2/8
