A systematic review and meta-analysis protocol aims to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms in assessing difficult airways. The study will search English-language and Chinese databases, as well as clinical trial registries, for relevant studies on AI-based difficult airway assessment. The review will include clinical trials, observational studies, and cohort studies that evaluated the diagnostic efficacy of AI algorithms in anticipating difficult airways. The primary outcome measures will be sensitivity, specificity, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, diagnostic likelihood ratios, and diagnostic odds ratio. The study will use the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies 2 tool to evaluate the risk of bias and the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation criteria to assess the quality of evidence. The results will provide clinical evidence for the application of AI in difficult airway assessment and offer insights into potential future directions for follow-up clinical trials. The study's findings will be reported in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses of Diagnostic Test Accuracy guidelines. The review will investigate the diagnostic accuracy of AI algorithms in assessing difficult airways, including difficult intubation, difficult face mask ventilation, and difficult laryngoscopy. The study will also explore the clinical utility of AI algorithms in difficult airway assessment using Fagan's nomogram. The protocol has been registered on PROSPERO, and the study will be conducted in accordance with the Cochrane Handbook. The results will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications, and the study will provide valuable insights into the diagnostic accuracy of AI algorithms in assessing difficult airways. In summary, the study aims to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of AI algorithms in assessing difficult airways through a systematic review and meta-analysis, providing clinical evidence for the application of AI in difficult airway assessment and offering insights into potential future directions for follow-up clinical trials.

California lawmakers are pushing a bill (A.B. 412) that could harm small AI companies and non-commercial developers by requiring them to track and disclose copyrighted works used in AI training. The bill, which claims to promote transparency, would create a "reading list" of registered, pre-registered, or indexed works with the U.S. Copyright Office. This would be a monumental task, especially for small teams, and could lead to steep penalties of up to $1,000 per day per violation for noncompliance. The bill's requirements would apply to all developers, including two-person startups and indie developers, putting them at enormous financial risk. The goal of the bill appears to be to allow big content companies to more easily file lawsuits against software developers. Critics argue that the bill is premature, as federal courts are still working to define the boundaries of fair use and copyright in the AI context. The bill's amendments have made compliance even harder, requiring technologists to identify "pre-registered" copyrights and document works that aren't copyrighted but are subject to exclusive rights. The penalties for noncompliance are steep, and the bill's requirements could crush small AI startups and stifle innovation. Lawmakers should reconsider the bill and advance policies that protect privacy, promote competition, and ensure that innovation benefits the public, not just entrenched interests.

US Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has dismissed all 17 sitting members of the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). The ACIP provides guidance on vaccine safety and effectiveness, influencing access to disease-preventing shots. Epidemiologist Jennifer Nuzzo expresses concern that the dismissal may lead to a lack of public trust and potentially stack the committee with anti-vaccine members, making it harder for Americans to access vaccines. The ACIP's decisions shape immunization schedules, affecting which groups are recommended for vaccines and whether health insurance will cover costs. The committee is scheduled to meet on June 25-27 to vote on recommendations for the next winter respiratory illness season, including guidance for COVID, flu, and RSV vaccines. Nuzzo worries that the dismissal may affect vaccine policy and access, potentially creating inequity in who can benefit from vaccines and influencing companies' willingness to make vaccines.

Enterprise IT executives are concerned that the cost of generative AI (genAI) model access will skyrocket in the next couple of years. This is because large language model (LLM) makers will have their code deeply embedded in enterprise environments, making it costly to switch to a different model. As a result, genAI firms will have significant pricing power, similar to how companies like Uber and Salesforce have increased their prices over time. Experts like Manuel Kistner, CEO of New Gravity, and Dev Nag, CEO of QueryPal, warn that genAI companies will charge based on the value delivered, rather than development costs. This could lead to significant price hikes, especially if genAI consolidation occurs and reduces competition. However, not everyone shares this concern. James Villarrubia, former head of NASA digital innovation and AI, believes that pricing changes will not be materially different from what IT experienced in the past. He suggests that enterprises are designing their systems to be linked to tools in a way that makes swapping vendors cheaper, and that fine-tuning tasks are decreasing due to more open models like Meta's LLama 4. To mitigate potential price hikes, companies can take steps such as implementing agnostic, multi-LLM models or open-source options, although this may require significant assembly and fine-tuning. Negotiating longer-term contracts is also an option, but Villarrubia questions the business sense of this approach, given the rapidly evolving nature of genAI technology.
