Article • From promise to practice

Healthcare AI's trust issues (and what it takes to overcome them)

The promise of AI in healthcare is enormous – however, most who have actually worked with today's models will agree that the technology is not quite there yet. At MEDICA, a panel of AI experts and healthcare leaders tackled a fundamental question: What stands between AI's current state and its potential as a reliable healthcare companion? The discussion revealed that technical capability alone isn't enough – transforming AI into a trustworthy partner in patient care requires overcoming challenges in education, infrastructure, oversight, and realistic risk assessment.
