Artificial intelligence is being positioned as the next major transformation in healthcare, but the industry has seen similar waves of technological change before.
In Part 1 of a three-part series, host J. Carlisle Larsen speaks with Robert Wachter, M.D., Chair of the Department of Medicine at University of California-San Francisco and author of A Giant Leap: How AI Is Transforming Healthcare and What That Means for Our Future, about how to understand this moment in AI.
Drawing on lessons from the rollout of electronic health records, Wachter explains why previous efforts to digitize healthcare often fell short of expectations and what may be different this time.
