AI in healthcare amplifies human expertise rather than replacing it. The technology reads millions of research papers and biomarkers faster than any person could, handling massive data analysis while humans define problems and create foundational research. AI extends what doctors can do, not what they are.

What are some of the concerns in terms of AI and healthcare?
AI is only learning from humans. So when we say humans are not needed, AI is standing on the shoulders of these great humans who have done the millions of research papers. It is actually reading those millions of research papers every single day. More research comes out than human brain can read in 24 hours. But guess what? AI can in fact read that. The AI is constantly learning from humans, not making up its own knowledge. So when I I didn't say humans are not involved. Humans are, in fact, involved in doing— in the foundation and all the work that is being done. They're just not doing what I would call the manual work of doing things that humans cannot do well. There is no human I know of that can read 100 million biomarkers and say, Claudia, do this. Because human brain wasn't designed to read 100 million things and remember them. But AI is really good at doing that.
