Stop using the digital voice recorder and type everything yourself. This is the best way to protect your voice print in this situation. It doesn't work well as a protest or to educate your colleagues, but I suppose that's one thing you can use your voice for. Since AI transcription is a cost saving measure, there will be nothing you can do to stop its use. No decision maker will choose the more expensive option with a higher error rate on morals alone.
Unfortunately the interface of the medical records system will be changed when this is implemented. The keyboard input method will be entirely removed.
Even if this gets implemented, I can't imagine it will last very long with something as completely ridiculous as removing the keyboard. One AI API outage and the entire office completely shuts down. Someone's head will roll when that inevitably happens.
Ah sorry, I mean removing the option of using the keyboard as an input method in the medical records system. The keyboard itself isn't physically removed from the computer clients.
But I agree that in the event of a system failure the hospital will halt.
Also, if you get the permission of someone in leadership to clone their voice, one angle could be to voice clone someone on ElevenLabs and make the voice say something particularly problematic, just to stress how easily voice data can be misused.
If this AI vendor is ever breached, all they have to do is robocall patients pretending to be a real doctor they know. I don't think I need to spell out how poorly that would go.
