Responsible Use of Artificial Intelligence to Improve Kidney Care
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming the delivery of kidney care through predictive analytics, machine learning, deep learning, and generative AI technologies. To meet this challenge, the American Society of Nephrology convened an AI Workgroup to provide a framework for the responsible use of AI in nephrology. The group outlines foundational principles to guide AI development: prioritizing patient benefit, ensuring clinician oversight, and advancing innovation in high-burden disease areas. Its set of foundational assumptions are grounded in the physician always being in the loop and an overarching goal to benefit patients with kidney diseases. This review provides an overview of the clinical uses of AI in nephrology and offers practical guidance for nephrologists seeking to incorporate AI into CKD and AKI management, dialysis, and transplantation care. It also highlights key challenges-such as data quality, equity, transparency, and clinical integration-that must be addressed to ensure the responsible and effective implementation of AI in kidney care.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
