In this episode, he emphasizes that reasoning—not just correctness—defines good care, and that evidence must be contextual, accessible, and usable. He explores how physicians use AI to reduce uncertainty, why global constraints challenge the idea of a single “right answer,” and how trust depends on transparent use of medical literature. For clinicians navigating complex decisions, this conversation highlights both the promise and the limits of AI—and the enduring importance of human judgment.
