​Health AI Hub Collaboratory Rounds bring together experts and practitioners to share and explore various aspects of AI lifecycle management in healthcare. These monthly gatherings are designed to keep you informed about the latest trends, best practices, and challenges in the dynamic field of healthcare AI.

​Physician attitudes toward AI are shifting fast, but not always in the ways the headlines suggest. In this session, Chris Khoury of the American Medical Association’s Strategic Insights group will walk through findings from two new AMA surveys: the 2026 Physician Survey on Augmented Intelligence and the 2026 International Physician Survey on Consumer Wearables.

​Together, the two surveys offer a timely snapshot of how physicians are engaging with two of the fastest-growing technologies in health care today. On the AI side, adoption in professional settings has climbed sharply, led by documentation and summarization tools, though concerns about patient privacy, skill loss, and unclear liability frameworks continue to shape how far physicians are willing to go. Wearable data tells a complementary story: physicians across six countries see real clinical value in the information patients bring in from their devices, but actual use in clinical workflows remains rare, held back by many of the same barriers, thin reimbursement pathways, liability questions, and workflows that haven't caught up to the technology.

​Join us as Chris unpacks what these findings mean for health systems, technology developers, and policymakers navigating physician trust, adoption barriers, and the road to meaningful AI and wearable-data integration in clinical care.
