AI isn't just a buzzword anymore—it's showing up everywhere in healthcare, whether you realize it or not. In this episode, we get honest about what it means to live and work with AI, why so many people still feel anxious (or even a little excited) about it, and why avoiding it altogether just isn't an option. We dig into practical ways healthcare teams can safely experiment with AI in their daily routines, what to watch out for, and how the right approach can help you solve problems instead of just creating new ones. If you've been wondering how AI is changing the way you work—or if it really might replace your job—this one's for you.
