Dr. Adam Rodman

doctors are using this right now.

Oh, that's a great question.

So how open evidence works, like all of these tools is a trade secret, but it uses some sort of like retrieval augmented generation and an evidence retrieval tool.

And they have all these deals with the big medical journals.

So New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA,

And when you ask a clinical query, it searches the evidence and then tries to identify high quality sources.

And then it always grounds what's coming back in the literature.

So you have gray hairs like me who kind of use open evidence the way that I would use a Google search or one of the old tools.

So I use it as a souped-up way to search the literature rapidly and often go to the primary sources, or I use it as a faster way to get a reference.

So a drug that I haven't dosed in a long time, open evidence pulls the drug monographs from the FDA.

I can very quickly pull that up.

Mm-hmm.

Younger doctors, I have noticed, and I don't know this empirically, but younger doctors are more likely to ask questions like, what could be going on?

Can you give me a second opinion?

What is the next thing that I should do?

So ways that I don't traditionally use decision support or reference tools, but sort of a new way.

And of course, younger doctors also use it in the reference ways that I do.

My understanding is largely number two.

I'm sure the company has a good sense on how many people.

I hope no one is copying protected health information and putting into it.
