Rapid advancements of artificial intelligence (AI) call for a robust governance approach that keeps pace with technological progression and addresses the needs of society, institutions, and innovators. Emerging AI methods have demonstrated various successes, as well as concerning error patterns ranging from discrimination to hallucinations. Nonetheless, there is substantial momentum in the direction of broad and rapid deployment in critical use cases, including strategic decision support tools for healthcare, raising significant ethical concerns for responsible adoption. We propose an adaptive governance framework that views governance as a dynamic, human-centred control policy that explicitly integrates theories of change about technology acceptance, adoption, and rejection as part of a feedback loop to ensure ethical, secure, and effective implementation of the health AI (HAI) environment. The goal is to inform how policies and regulations can be optimised to balance responsible deployment for the greater good of society without stifling technological innovation.
