Artificial Intelligence

Episode Description

AI is fast.
AI is fluent.
AI is confident.

But is it clinically trustworthy?

šŸ¤– AI can generate answers in seconds.
But good healthcare decisions require more than speed.

As AI tools become more accessible across healthcare, the line between assistance and authority is starting to blur.

Don and Steve put artificial intelligence under the microscope—cutting through hype to examine how AI is actually performing in healthcare today.

They tackle the questions healthcare professionals are already facing:

🧠 Which clinical tasks can AI reliably support—and which still require human judgment?
 āš ļø Is it actually helping clinicians — or quietly creating new risks?
 šŸ“‹ When AI gives a medical answer, how often is it accurate… and how often is it confidently wrong?
 šŸŽ“ How should AI be used (or limited) when training the next generation of clinicians?

Then they put the evidence behind these claims to the test:

  • AI will fully replace healthcare professionals
  • Using AI improves patient safety
  • AI generated medical answers are more accurate than humans
  • Healthcare students should use AI
