Utah to allow AI to prescribe medication without human oversight

Original: Utah to let AI examine patients and prescribe medication without human oversight

Utah is set to become the first US state to allow artificial intelligence systems to examine patients and prescribe medication without a human doctor's oversight. The move is drawing attention nationally as a major test case for AI in medicine, with debate expected over patient safety, liability and the future role of physicians in diagnosis and treatment.

Why now: It would make Utah the first state to remove the human physician requirement for AI-driven diagnosis and prescribing, raising safety and regulatory questions.
