| dc.description.abstract | This paper examines the challenges of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Canadian healthcare by employing Jürgen Habermas's three-dimensional theory of rationality (Cognitive-Instrumental, Aesthetic-Expressive and Moral-Practical) as a framework for analysis. Through a review of both peer-reviewed and grey literature from 2018 to 2023, the research reveals an interconnection among ethical, privacy, technological, and legal concerns. This reflects the validity and applicability of Habermas's three-dimensional theory of rationality as a useful framework to assess the multifaceted discourses on AI in healthcare. Ethics and privacy are identified as central to navigating AI's implications in healthcare, suggesting their foundational role in shaping policies and practices. | |
