Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a major influence in our culture – including in our medical system. What do we need to know to make informed decisions about care? And, how do we maintain the human side of medicine while using this powerful tool?

Our panel will discuss the fast-paced changes in our use of AI in medical practice; how this affects patients and families; and how to maintain ethics and humane treatment of patients facing serious illness. Audience Q&A will be available.
