AI in Orthopedics is not a thing.

So I talk with a ton of ortho people each week. It seems like everyone wants to talk about AI. But through these conversations I found that many aren't even thinking about AI in the right context. They're thinking about it in a wrong context. So what I like to say is AI is not a thing. Let me say it again, AI is just not a thing. Let me give you an example or an analogy that we've all lived through. So today AI is more akin to like cellular connectivity that came about in around 2000 or the Internet around 2000 when cellular connectivity emerged, people didn't invest in cellular connectivity. They weren't drawn to it. They invested in companies like Verizon because Verizon used new technology to create transformative new services. When the Internet emerged, people didn't invest in the Internet. They invested in Amazon for E commerce or Netflix for streaming or Google for search or web ads. These companies created transformative new services. So as you look at orthopedics today, you can't invest in AI or you can't get a job in AI and you can't chase AI. It's just not a thing. So if you're an investor, you're a surgeon, sales professional, whatever, seek out the transformative new services that are based on AI, not AI. The take home message is for those ortho companies that are leveraging AI to create new products and services, don't get fooled by ortho companies that market AI, but don't create these new tools. So anyway, that's it. Hope this helps you understand AI a bit.
