Saddened by death of Len Syme. In 1989, I took his @UCBerkeley course & mentioned I'd been asked to lead 1990 Int'l AIDS Conf. He said, "Take good notes; you'll want to write about it." That led to my 1st book, The Fragile Coalition. Len was a true giant. https://t.co/XKTOqLR0GT https://t.co/heobtFlSbJ

While AI-based scribes are rapidly becoming the norm (w/ 5-7 companies competing for the biz), nobody's cracked the code on AI-based EHR in-box responses (perhaps because most systems are using Epic's tool). @LisaRotenstein & my editorial @JAMANetworkOpen https://t.co/SWLhiSZIsW

Mashup Score: 29AI in Health Care: Will the Reality Match the Hype? - 9 month(s) ago
The 14th annual Lundberg Institute Lecture features Robert Wachter of UCSF and his predictions about what advances artificial intelligence will make, and will not make, in health care. Why has health care not undergone the kind of digital transformation that has completely remade industries ranging from retail to entertainment to travel? Wachter will discuss health care’s bumpy road to digital nirvana, and why, to paraphrase Hemingway, generative AI may lead to medicine’s “gradually, then suddenly” moment.

Big #AI partnership: @AbridgeHQ inks deal with @UpToDate. I'm sure digital scribes will be ubiquitous within 2-3 years; the next question is how to integrate creation of the MD note w/ meaningful clinical decision-support. This is a step in that direction https://t.co/dPhu7EKRqP
