Dr. Robert Pearl joins Dr. Erich Schramm to discuss the burgeoning role AI will play in the American healthcare system and how doctors may be able to leverage the systems to spend more time with patients who need interventions and achieve better patient outcomes for all. They spend time comparing AI outcomes not to an ideal but to the current system, and discuss pilot programs that have shown better triage, intervention, and (surprisingly) patient empathy scores with AI-integrated systems. They also briefly mention some of the dangers of generative AI and the need to tackle this issue early with incoming medical students.

Dr. Pearl's book, ChatGPT, MD: How AI-Empowered Patients & Doctors Can Take Back Control of American Medicine is available from his site, robertpearlmd.com
