Etrust and the Ethics behind ICT Design.

Daniel Sukie

Etrust, found most commonly in the medical profession, refers to the expectations of a machine or an ICT that cares for the sickly.

DCPIs and their purpose

Evidentialism and Trust

DCPIs collect information on patients and are able to automatically make inferences about the patients status based on data collected. Similar to that of diagnosis websites, which are also forms of DCPI. They fulfill the same objective of a physician.

In regards to trust this means that the trust should be based on evidence that the entity being trusted will perform the actions anticipated by the trustee.

The definition for DCPI is a direct computer-patient interface which refers to a computer system which interacts with patients to complete tasks a doctor would such as diagnose, advise, and some events even treat patients through ICT.

This is a view that is made about the ethics of belief. This is defined by the belief which should be based on the available evidence.

The responsibility of a DCPI

DCPIs are not simple databases, but are programmed with knowledge that can be found in the mind of a medical professional. The machines don't simply spout information, but are able to come up with assumptions on the basis of collected information.

It is assumed that the DCPIs are simple databases filled with information and are not able to make trustworthy decisions in order to care for the well-being of an individual.

The Obligations of Doctors vs. DCPIs

Doctors and patients share a relationship that DCPIs cannot possibly conceive in this stage of their development. These DCPIs are tested and some have the ability to even obtain informed consent from patients to perform therapy.

The main concern about DCPIs can be found in patient confidentiality. DCPIs have no obligation to keep your information secret and anyone who wishes to have your information may obtain. The security of these devices is also likely prioritized at quite the low level in comparison to that of medical ability and safety concerns.
