AI, MD: Navigating the Future of Healthcare Innovation
Ready for your check-up by Dr. AI? Brace yourself, it might take a while.

Yet, amid the optimism, a harsh reality looms—integrating AI into healthcare is more a marathon than a sprint, tangled in regulatory hurdles, data privacy concerns, and institutional inertia.
