Psychology often prefers a principle of parsimony: Simpler is better than complex. Recent research shows that simpler algorithms with simple features sometimes outperform more-complex ones.

Assess minimal past history and general health status, as well as minimal clinical assessment according to the simpler assessments and simpler algorithm ( Table 1 and Table 2 , Figure 2).

But many organisations continue to invest in AI tools with unexplainable algorithms on the assumption that they are intrinsically superior to simpler, explainable ones. This perception is known as the ...
