Position statement on priorities for artificial intelligence in GI endoscopy: a report by the ASGE Task Force
Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) in GI endoscopy holds tremendous promise to augment clinical performance, establish better treatment plans, and improve patient outcomes. Although there are promising initial applications and preliminary clinical data for AI in gastroenterology, the field is still in a very early phase, with limited clinical use. The American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy has convened an AI Task Force to develop guidance around clinical implementation, testing/validating algorithms, and building pathways for successful implementation of AI in GI endoscopy. This White Paper focuses on 3 areas: (1) priority use cases for development of AI algorithms in GI, both for specific clinical scenarios and for streamlining clinical workflows, quality reporting, and practice management; (2) data science priorities, including development of image libraries, and standardization of methods for storing, sharing, and annotating endoscopic images/video; and (3) research priorities, focusing on the importance of high-quality, prospective trials measuring clinically meaningful patient outcomes.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
