Not really. Workers are left taking the blame for forced implementation from the executive level. They save the costs and work staff harder… But when it fucks up then the workers can take the blame. Responsibility for this needs to sit higher up with those who forced faulty tools on everyone. AI is being forced into the NHS against all protests and objections.
I can understand this to some degree, but I largely disagree.
AI is a tool. The user of the tool should be the one that carries responsibility. I don’t have the stats, but I imagine that most jobs that relied on hand tools suffered more injury when power tools were introduced, but again, it’s up to the person using the tool to use it responsibly.
Granted, thats not a perfect analogy because AI definitely doesn’t present the same marked improvements as power tools, but the responsibility of the user doesn’t change.
The power tools are faulty, and they’re being forced to use them. You’re assuming the people using the AI have the power to reject what the AI says. I’m not sure that’s true.

Are the individual workers being sued, or is the hospital?
Does the “following orders” defense work sometimes?
Almost always
Only when standards are not at their highest? If so, that wouldn’t look good.
Then they have an obligation to fight back. Or they can lose their job because they blindly followed AI.

Now that they’re personally liable for what it outputs, they definitely can. Your boss can’t force you to break the law.
