AI and Your Patients - Live Stream Chat, Watch live today, 3:00 to 3:30pm ET

 
CMT Live Stream Today, 3pm ET: 
"What the AI trials show, and what your patients aren't telling you."
Watch live today, 3:00 to 3:30pm ET
 
When a patient says, "AI told me this might be serious," the worst thing you can do is laugh. Be dismissive, or sigh. Or do that thing with your eyebrows… (You know the one!)
You built your practice around relationships, and you protect your time because your patients deserve your attention.
 
Now AI is showing up on both sides of the exam table. Vendors promise to give you your evenings back. Your patients are asking AI questions they never bring to you. It's hard to know what's real, what's hype, and what could quietly wear away the trust you've worked so hard to earn.
 
You're not alone in that. We spent the last month reading the actual trials on AI scribes and AI-drafted messages, along with reading the new research on how patients use AI. Today, we'll walk you through it (from a patients perspective).
 
Here's what we'll discuss in the live stream today:
  1. Learn what the research shows and what it doesn't
  2. Build a simple approach: review every note, disclose clearly, and invite patients to share what they've read
  3. Lead with a seven-point readiness checklist you can start Monday
Save your seat. Watch the live stream today, 3:00 to 3:30pm ET

Have a question? Post it in Ask the Community ahead of time and we'll answer it live. Can't make it? The replay will be in the Replay Library.
 
The goal isn't to see more patients faster. It's to give the ones you have your full presence again.
 
See you this afternoon,

Weekend reading: Report from IPES Food: Food Work

IPES Food (International Panel of Experts on Sustainable Food Systems) has a new report, well worth reading.

The report’s key messages:

Food systems employ nearly 1.4 billion people — two out of every five workers – making food the largest employer and most abusive sector on the planet.

Exploitation does not happen by accident: it is a structural feature of how food systems are currently organized.

Migrant workers are essential to today’s food systems, yet face some of the highest rates of workplace abuse, wage theft, forced labour, injury, and death.

Compounding these structural abuses, a dangerous convergence of emerging forces is making food work increasingly hazardous and exploitative.

Harms are not evenly distributed across the food workforce. Women, racialized workers, and migrants disproportionately occupy the lowest paid, most dangerous, and least protected jobs.

Achieving lasting transformation depends on shifting both policy and power across five key priorities:

  • Build worker power
  • Secure decent work
  • Guarantee equal rights for migrant workers
  • Rein in corporate power
  • Value food work

Achieving this requires changing who holds power, who profits, and who bears the costs.

As is typical of IPES reports, this one has useful graphics.
