5 physician voices on how to take on AI in the workplace

Two-thirds of physicians said they wanted their workplaces to take a wait-and-see approach with artificial intelligence, while another 29% said they wanted their workplaces to become early adopters, according to Medscape’s “Physicians and AI Report 2023.”

The report surveyed 1,043 respondents across more than 29 specialties from July to August.

Here are five anonymous physician voices from the report on the adoption of AI in the medical workplace:

“I would rather see physicians harness AI’s uses and efficiencies before the administrators, insurers and regulators create an AI-based environment that benefits them and harms doctors and patients.”

“We should accept and work AI into health systems, as it is already worked into our daily lives.”

“The technology is far too new and unproven to implement in my particular type of practice [outpatient clinic].”

“AI may be adaptive internally to a hospital system or clinic, but external AI-derived protocols and recommendations could conflict with accepted standards of care.”

“AI would need to be introduced to a sample of practitioners before being applied broadly.”
