Recently IBM announced that their Watson natural language processing system will be used for "utilization management" decisions in lung cancer treatment by health insurance company WellPoint at Memorial Sloan–Kettering Cancer Center. I would like to urge everyone to review http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utilization_management -- it seems very likely that Watson will be making treatment decisions similar to those which have colloqually been rerred to as "death panel" decisions in the US over the past four years. The IBM Watson team has frequently stated that they rely on Wikipedia in essentially all of their interpretation and question answering processing, more than any other source. What are the legal liability issues involved with an artificial intelligence system based on Wikipedia making life-or-death medical decisions?
