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 clinician reviewing the decision. The move is drawing attention as a landmark test case for AI in medicine, with supporters pointing to improved access to care and critics raising safety and accountability concerns.

Why now: It would be the first US state to grant AI systems autonomous prescribing authority, raising major medical and ethical questions.
