Pieces Technologies' Clinical AI Systems Allegedly Marketed With Misleading Performance Claims

September 18, 2024

The Texas Attorney General has reached a settlement with Pieces Technologies due to allegations that the company marketed its healthcare AI systems for clinical documentation with misleading performance claims. The state found questionable statements about low error rates and hallucination prevention, potentially leading hospitals and clinicians to rely on these tools in patient care settings with inaccurate expectations. The settlement includes restrictions on future marketing claims and enhances transparency regarding system performance and risk as a step towards safe and secure AI practices.
