Yeah, the joke I have is Skynet is here and it's coming. So watch out for your Terminators. They're around the corner. I have a friend who will, when she talks to her Alexa, she says, please and thank you. Because when the AI overlords come, she wants to be thought of in a good way. So it's those kinds of things. She wants to be polite. She wants to be polite now so they like her later.

So it's definitely there. There's a lot to think about from a safety perspective. putting guardrails. I think some of what you've heard from the Elon Musks of the world and others is that government needs to step in and organize this and keep it in the box, so to speak, because unfettered humans will be humans and push the limits on all of it.

In healthcare specifically, there's real jeopardy when you think about hallucinations, bias, and other things that can be introduced, not necessarily intentionally, but unintentionally, right? That could lead to misdiagnoses, could lead to the wrong treatment plan. So I, in particular, when I talk to clinicians about this, I say, let's think about the automation first.

How do I make things useful to you today that you validate? and no, right, creating a note out of other text that may be in the chart is an example. The clinician is still responsible for the validity of that information. as soon as I start making recommendations to treatment, that's where we get into a funnier territory, right?

That's when you start to get into jeopardy, when you think about safety, where you think about guidance. FDA does this for medical devices, right? And so it will be, it feels like an inevitability that government, FDA in the healthcare space will have some oversight like they do for medical devices or biologics, et cetera, in making sure they're valid and useful.
