Interesting. Not sure I share all of Joe’s enthusiasm for ambient scribes… the devil is in the implementation.

And I reckon they should be med devices. But hey… that would slow things down with pesky safety and governance.

Fun new subscription though.

Refinding the community…

Their chair/bed, apparently.

Interesting stuff.

Interesting. Curious what AI adds that remote consulting doesn’t?

Human in the loop is a kind of cognitive bias imo. All evidence points to automation bias. So, for me, human in loop is a kind of false proxy for trust.

Genuine Qs/points. Not trying to be awkward. Thanks for point wise thoughts.

Curious about what that looks like and why it's different in ?rural centres cf urban. Maybe we have the same issues?

Atm the place AI could help in clinical work is supporting the practitioner with complexity imo. But we need to get away from "human in the loop" mentality & build algorithms c trust

So useful. Thanks!

This is so interesting. A lot of conversations revolve around having heralding of pts. Partly meaning that there is a triage sieve ahead of attendance. But if sending low acuity elsewhere doesn’t really matter, then heralding just adds an unnecessary step for sick pts. Right?

All the things you’re talking about I think I do in my day job. Then on my days off, I GP in semi rural Derbyshire where the village practice is owned by the OOH, post single hander leaving for NZ.
Would love to speak about a rehumanising approach.
