As AI advances at a breakneck pace, new capabilities are emerging that show greater and greater ability for AI to perform key clinical functions, including diagnostic decision making. Many have claimed that AI won’t replace physicians but will almost certainly augment them. This panel will explore the transformative role of AI in clinical care, focusing on its potential as a "co-pilot” to support physicians in decision-making and patient management, and how close – or far – we are from that vision. Experts will discuss real-world applications of AI technologies, including their impact on bedside care and diagnostic efficiency. The session will also examine the ethical considerations and barriers to implementation as AI becomes increasingly integrated into healthcare delivery.
