Abstract
The incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) into clinical practice represents a pivotal shift in healthcare delivery. AI promises greater efficiency, diagnostic support, and precision, yet its adoption raises ethical concerns related to autonomy, equity, transparency, and the human dimensions of care. This paper explores these tensions by analyzing key ethical themes through both philosophical perspectives and a firsthand clinical encounter with AI-assisted documentation. The case underscores the need for critical human oversight while highlighting the potential utility of AI when effectively integrated. The goal is to inform decision-making by emphasizing foundational values in ethical clinical practice.
