It’s not clear if gender bias is the right word given that it’s such a loaded term. Women visit doctors more frequently and as the article states have higher rates of mood disorders. Given this, it seems obviously that misdiagnosis would be higher in women than men. It falls out of the Baysean statistics. If AI we’re doing the evaluation you could remove the gender parameter, but it could lead to even more frequent misdiagnoses. Alternatively we could be more exhaustive with diagnosing women but at what cost to the healthcare system? But then wouldn’t we be biasing against men? There is no free lunch here. |
