The AI Revolution in Medicine

Aug 12, 2026

Episode Description

AI is changing medicine—but it isn't replacing doctors. 

On this episode of The Vitals, Leslie Schlachter talks with Robbie Freeman and Dr. Girish Nadkarni about how artificial intelligence is already transforming healthcare, from ambient AI that gives clinicians more time with patients to predictive tools that can identify patients at risk before they become critically ill. 

They also explore the future of AI-powered patient care, personalized medicine and genomics—and the risks of relying too heavily on consumer AI tools.
