NEW Bulletproof All-in AI Summit - 9 August, 2026 Why are humans still doing work that computers can do better? In this episode, Ian sits down with Dr. Peter Boulden and Dr. Craig Spodak to tackle what that question really means for dentistry, AI adoption, and the rapidly changing role of the front desk. The three explore how artificial intelligence is already transforming administrative work, patient communication, scheduling, documentation, and workflow management, and why the biggest mistake a dentist can make is assuming this technology won't reach their practice. Peter makes the case that even dentists who opt out will still feel the impact, because AI agents are already starting to make calls, book appointments, and gather information on behalf of patients. The flood of inbound is coming whether you are ready or not. That is why he frames the real choice as offense or defense: use AI to move your practice forward, or scramble to keep up without it. But the conversation isn't about replacing people. It's about removing repetitive work so team members can focus on the human experiences that matter most.
