A podcast conversation (Cameron Herold with another speaker) arguing that AI will become essential in clinical practice — to the point that not using AI may be considered malpractice — and contrasting human medicine with veterinary care, highlighting the particular challenges of telemedicine for pets because animals cannot verbally report symptoms. The speakers question how veterinarians can diagnose animals remotely.

Over the next few years. If a physician does not use AI in their day to day, it'll be considered malpractice.
Right.
The AI understands how to diagnose and how to work with the patient better than any doctor ever could at this stage. But they're talking to the other human. They're like, hey, human, what's bothering you? The dog can't talk to you. How does a veterinarian diagnose all this stuff?
That's why telemedicine hasn't really taken off, because a dog can't tell you what's going on. You have to have a physical exam so people can talk about that all day long. At the end of the day, people still have to bring their pets in for vaccines and government required stuff. So I don't see that taking off too much.
