Block just laid off 4,000 people and CEO Jack Dorsey said AI made it possible. The AI jobs story is dominating the headlines in fintech and tech, but what does it mean for healthcare, where hiring has been growing and we hear so much about clinician shortages.

David Williams, President, Health Business Group, and John Driscoll, Chairman, UConn Health, discuss where AI is eliminating healthcare jobs, where it's creating new ones, and what leaders should be doing right now to navigate the uncertainty.
