Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming how health information is analyzed and applied. From predictive analytics and clinical decision support to natural language processing in EHRs, AI has become a powerful tool in healthcare—but it also introduces new ethical and privacy challenges.

Discuss potential ethical, legal, or privacy concerns associated with this use.
Explain how the HIM professional’s role in data governance or quality management helps ensure responsible and compliant use of AI.
Q5
This week has focused on customer service, guest relations, and human interaction in the hospitality experience. Everyone has a different set of expectations going into any situation, based on past experience and their own preferences. It is not always easy to anticipate guest needs and desires and aim to exceed their expectations.
For this discussion, provide an example of a time when you were pleasantly surprised by your interactions with someone in the hospitality industry – where they may have exceeded your expectations, dealt with a problem well, or just in general improved your mood.
Then, provide an example of a time you received not-so-great service and what that meant in terms of whether or not you would ever return to that place of business. Explain how this poor situation could have been handled better – perhaps in a way that would have made you give the establishment a second chance or even a recommendation.
