Takeaway: We in health care long ago grew weary of the bright shiny things that are going to fix health care. Is AI another one or something else?

Recently Ardent Health, a private, for-profit, 30 hospital system, announced a collaboration with Swtichpoint Ventures to develop Artificial Intelligence solutions for their company.  Innovation is not what health care is known for - and for good reason. Like carpenters, clinicians must measure twice and cut once. The consequences of mistakes are so dire, few humans are willing to defer to a machine. Looking at you, Olive. It is not how they are trained anyway.

Notwithstanding the sheer stupidity of some asset allocation by certain over-resourced funds, health care desperately needs innovation. If feels like in just the last month or two, health care executives and hospital administrators have awoken the reality we have been pointing out for almost a year. The American workforce has been irreversibly altered. Since health care runs on people it faces a unique challenge.
