In this episode of High on Healthy, Richard Zwicky and Dr. Sulagna Misra explore the complex intersection of artificial intelligence and healthcare. Dr. Misra highlights the tension between AI's potential for efficiency—such as robotic surgery and data collection—and the critical risks of losing the human relationship essential to healing.

They delve into the dangers of AI "hallucinations" in psychiatric care, the necessity of physician-led guardrails, and the vital role of medical intuition in picking up on nuances, like a patient's silence, that a machine might overlook. While AI is a powerful assistive tool, it must be carefully regulated to enhance rather than replace the delicate human element of medical practice.
