Ground Truths · Charlotte Blease: Is A.I. Going to Remedy Medicine’s Problems? · 12 Sep 2025 podcast

It invites questions about what the right partnership is and something that you've been writing about and thinking about for many years, certainly in relation to the NHS and education,

What training do we actually need?

What's the right training in order to work alongside?

Because that's probably what's going to happen, at least in the medium term.

It's already happening, Eric.

I mean, just to add to that, I've done survey research in the UK among GPs.

2024, how many, I asked 1,000 GPs with my team, are you using any generative AI tools for clinical tasks?

20% said yes.

We redid the survey 2025, so January this year, year apart, 25%.

Now, those are commercial tools like ChatGPT.

So they're using them, but then as you say, are they using them effectively?

Yes, so that, okay, so we do have a slew of articles right now.

New York Times has done a lot of these articles during the last week.

Look, I think it's a serious problem.

It's something very, we should be very concerned about it.

But I also, and this may seem again, my sort of philosophical, let's take a step back, a big picture perspective here.

And while there may well be harms there, we shouldn't overly romance what is currently going on when patients lack access to therapists.

because this debate's often more about therapy, in fact, than it is medicine.

But also something I've looked at is the evidence base for psychotherapy.

Now, consider just for a second, if you park all of the challenges with AI and the potential negatives, especially with young people relying on these tools.
