AI doctors may sound like science fiction, but they're closer than you think. On Thursday's "Hot Take," Jesse Weber explores the promise of AI in medicine, from earlier diagnoses and lower costs to the risks of flawed data, misdiagnoses and life-or-death mistakes. Dr. David Shaywitz, chief medical scientist at Lore Health, joins the show to tackle the biggest questions: Could AI transform health care? Is the technology reliable enough to make critical medical decisions? And could it one day replace human doctors? Would you trust an AI doctor with your health? Drop your questions for Jesse.
