Episode notes

Send us Fan Mail Eighty-one percent of physicians are already using AI in practice, more than double the rate from just three years ago. The tools are moving faster than the rules, and nobody has agreed on who gets to write them. Dr. John Whyte, CEO of the American Medical Association, joins hosts David E. Williams and John Driscoll to discuss why the medical community needs to lead the conversation on AI guardrails rather than wait for Washington to catch up, and why the most urgent regulatory question right now involves AI chatbots in mental health, where one in six American adults are already using them with no meaningful oversight in place. ️️ABOUT DR. JOHN WHYTE John J. Whyte, MD, MPH is the CEO and Executive Vice President of the American Medical Association, the nation's largest physician organization.
