Technology is changing healthcare in ways we couldn’t imagine a decade ago. AI is helping doctors analyze scans faster, predict patient risks, and even suggest treatment options based on data. At the same time, wearable devices and health apps let patients track their own heart rate, sleep, and activity levels in real time.

But it’s not all simple. How much should we rely on AI? Can it really understand the nuances of human health, or will it always need a doctor’s judgment to make sense of the data?

I’m curious—how do you see AI shaping the future of healthcare? Will it make care smarter and more accessible, or are there risks we need to watch closely?

Exactly the way United Healthcare uses AI, as a way to obscure culpability in mass murder through rejection and divestment from essential healthcare systems so that human experts can be replaced with bullshit that constantly fails, hurts and eventually kills vulnerable people.

The AI functions solely as a tool to rationalize the dehumanization and devaluing of human life for profit.
