## Resource

Welcome back to the AI journal club! In this episode, we bring you a deep dive into a game-changing paper from The Lancet -- the MASAI study. This is the first randomized controlled trial to evaluate the use of artificial intelligence in breast cancer screening and we're so excited to discuss it. We'll break down the study's impressive findings on interval cancer rates, sensitivity, and massive workload reductions for radiologists. Beyond the data, we'll tackle the big-picture questions and some sensational recent headlines. Are we deploying AI too fast? Or is it time to go faster?
