AI and the Future of Healthcare (Panel)
Will we even need doctors in five years, or are we watching the birth of something radically new? This panel confronts the rapid rise of AI in medicine, from AI-led diagnosis and robotic healing to empowered patients disrupting care models.
Bringing together an AI ethicist, a cancer patient innovating with digital tools, and a physician shaping future medical education, the session explores whether artificial intelligence will make the doctor extinct—or challenge clinicians, patients, and technologists to invent a more compassionate, intelligent partnership for tomorrow’s healthcare.
