Episode #74: AI Isn’t Coming. It’s Already Here, with Amy McCarthy, Chief Nursing Officer at Hippocratic AI
Episode Description
Nursing belongs in the room where AI gets designed!
In this episode of the Smart Care Team Spotlight, Amy McCarthy, Chief Nursing Officer at Hippocratic AI, returns two and a half years after her first appearance to talk about what the move from hospital leadership into industry actually taught her. She walks Molly through Nurse Copilot, the company’s inpatient product, which nurses across the country co-designed and which is now commercially available. She breaks down what agentic AI means in practice, from voice agents that handle admissions navigation and discharge preparation to a constellation of roughly 31 supporting models designed to keep those conversations safe. And she is direct about what happens when leaders skip the hard part: handing nurses a product and hoping for adoption leads to workarounds, unused technology, and an investment that was never worth making.
Tune in to hear why Amy tells every audience she speaks to that AI is not coming; it is already here!
