Queensland Medical Women’s Society (QMWS) invites members and guests to join us on Thursday 22nd of May 2025 for our next Dinner Meeting event. Our special guest speaker will be Dr Jeni Wellington.

Medical Device Software Implementing AI: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of the New Wild Wild West

AI is revolutionising the way we diagnose, monitor, and treat illness — but with great power comes great (regulatory) responsibility. In this dynamic talk, Dr Jeni Wellington explores the frontier of medical device software using AI, framing it as a new digital Wild West. She will demystify key concepts for a wide audience, using vivid analogies (think: the dawn of email) to ensure accessibility for all.

Through real-world examples and frontline regulatory insight, Jeni unpacks:

· The Good – when AI works: life-saving speed, precision, and reach.

· The Bad – where it fails: bias, black-box decisions, and poor explainability.

· The Ugly – security breaches, data misuse, and the gap in trust.

She’ll also walk the audience through:

· Why health data is more valuable than financial data

· How the Essential Eight cybersecurity strategies protect our systems

· The TGA’s evolving role in AI regulation

· Four take-home messages every clinician should remember when facing the AI frontier
