The Approach of Iran’s Criminal Policy Towards the Use of Artificial Intelligence in the Field of Health

Artificial intelligence in medicine is a relatively young and inherently interdisciplinary field that includes medical, legal and social studies. Smart medical technology is a wide range of tools that enable health professionals to provide a better quality of life for patients and society by performing early diagnosis, reducing complications, reducing hospitalization time and optimizing treatment. The present study deals with the practical applications of artificial intelligence in the diagnosis of congenital heart diseases and other aspects of medicine. This shows the fundamental importance of this technology in the advancement of medical sciences. The purpose of the upcoming article is to show the challenges and gaps in Iran’s criminal policy in medical technology and the field of artificial intelligence.

To investigate Iran’s criminal policy in the field of applying artificial intelligence in the field of health, a descriptive-analytical method and library study, as well as artificial intelligence algorithms, have been used.

Investigations show that without considering a well-considered legislative criminal policy in the field of medical technology, which itself helps the development of legal science and legislation, the executive criminal policy in the capacity of identifying perpetrators, imposing criminal liability and imposing punishment will face serious challenges. This creates a suitable opportunity for potential criminals to commit behaviors that are against personal and social interests for their personal interests and at the same time do not consider themselves criminals; as they have started a process where the behavior committed in Iran’s criminal law system is not considered a crime or it is difficult to find a title for it in the current laws.

In the field of health, it is possible to keep the initiative in the hands of the law by performing calibrations and regular turn controls, which are effective techniques of situational prevention. Also, by implementing the assumptions of this article, which states that in order to have a reasonable criminal policy in the face of artificial intelligence technology, the science of law, especially criminal law, needs to consider the rights of robots as well as broader scientific research than by recognizing the challenge. More up-to-date and appropriate laws and regulations with advanced technologies should be formulated and approved, and following such a plan, the rights of patients will be significantly respected.
