Abstract

As advances in artificial intelligence (AI) continue to transform and revolutionize the field of medicine, understanding the potential uses of generative AI in health care becomes increasingly important. Generative AI, including models such as generative adversarial networks and large language models, shows promise in transforming medical diagnostics, research, treatment planning, and patient care. However, these data-intensive systems pose new threats to protected health information. This Viewpoint paper aims to explore various categories of generative AI in health care, including medical diagnostics, drug discovery, virtual health assistants, medical research, and clinical decision support, while identifying security and privacy threats within each phase of the life cycle of such systems (ie, data collection, model development, and implementation phases). The objectives of this study were to analyze the current state of generative AI in health care, identify opportunities and privacy and security challenges posed by integrating these technologies into existing health care infrastructure, and propose strategies for mitigating security and privacy risks. This study highlights the importance of addressing the security and privacy threats associated with generative AI in health care to ensure the safe and effective use of these systems. The findings of this study can inform the development of future generative AI systems in health care and help health care organizations better understand the potential benefits and risks associated with these systems. By examining the use cases and benefits of generative AI across diverse domains within health care, this paper contributes to theoretical discussions surrounding AI ethics, security vulnerabilities, and data privacy regulations. In addition, this study provides practical insights for stakeholders looking to adopt generative AI solutions within their organizations.

TL;DR

This Viewpoint paper categorizes generative AI in health care into five application areas and maps privacy and security threats across a three-phase life cycle from data collection to clinical implementation. It proposes risk assessment protocols and metrics, drawing on NIST frameworks and comparing EU and US AI governance approaches.

Key findings

  • Identifies 5 categories of generative AI in health care: medical diagnostics, drug discovery, virtual health assistants, medical research, and clinical decision support, with examples including AI-Rad Companion, Insilico Medicine, Sensely/Woebot Health, Anthropic Claude, and Glass AI.
  • Maps threats to a 3-phase life cycle: data collection and processing (eg, data poisoning, sensor spoofing, image tampering, reidentification), model training and building (eg, adversarial examples, AI hallucination, black-box opacity), and implementation (eg, misinformation or disinformation, model inversion, membership inference, attribute disclosure, prompt-based data extraction).
  • Notes that generative AI amplifies many existing AI and machine learning threats because of its data volume, complexity, and generative nature, while some threats are not unique to generative AI.
  • Recommends risk assessment protocols involving risk identification, prioritization, and controls, plus metrics such as security objectives, AI inscrutability, trustworthiness, responsibility, and harm; compares the EU AI Act’s binding risk-based rules with the US AI Bill of Rights’ nonbinding principles.

Methods

  • Viewpoint/conceptual paper with no empirical sample or dataset; it reviews literature and develops a classification framework based on factors including setting, users, input data, output data, personalization level, workflow integration, validation needs, impact, risks, and human-AI collaboration.
  • Maps security and privacy threats to a 3-phase generative AI life cycle adapted from prior AI security taxonomies, presenting Tables 1-3 and Figure 1.
  • Recommendations draw on the National Institute of Standards and Technology Privacy Framework and AI Risk Management Framework as well as regulatory guidance discussed in the literature review.

Limitations

  • The paper states that many discussed threats are not unique to generative AI and are prevalent in broader AI and machine learning systems; it also notes insufficient use cases, especially rare use cases, to establish clinical reference standards and evaluation metrics, and legal ambiguity around AI responsibility.
  • The text makes evident that, as a Viewpoint paper, it lacks empirical validation, a systematic review protocol, and quantitative evaluation; its recommendations are conceptual and not tested.
  • The paper acknowledges that AI inscrutability and AI trustworthiness/responsibility are not direct security or privacy measures and are long-standing broader AI issues.

    Generative AI systems pose acute privacy and security risks because of their vast data requirements and opacity.

      Contribution 24 (p. 33) links generative AI’s need for huge amounts of data to privacy concerns and potential data breaches or unauthorized access. The paper also calls for greater model transparency (Theme 1, p. 8), but the passages found do not identify opacity as a cause of the privacy and security risks claimed here. (LLM, conf=0.84)

      The Introduction (page unavailable) says federated learning averages local model updates without accessing local data, mitigating risks to sensitive information. It does not say that only gradients are shared, and the “Privacy data leakage attack” section warns that communicated model updates can leak training-data information. Thus, the source supports the privacy benefit but not the claim that sharing only gradients provides privacy. (LLM, conf=0.88)

      The Contributions section (p. 2) describes adversarial training as transforming real endoscopy images into synthetic-like images for domain adaptation.

That is a different method from using crafted adversarial examples to attack a model and test the robustness of its outputs. (LLM, conf=0.87)

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.

Claims read by deepseek-v4.1-flash under definition version 3 (extract-v3) on 2026-10-29.

Classified by jev-1.13-20260917 (gold-guideline-v0.2) on 2026-10-29.

Cited sources are checked by gpt-6-sol.

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.
