It is the very open-ended nature of
of generative AI that you're ultimately producing a document.
And however comprehensive we make the rubric, you know, there will always be probably some desiderata that isn't yet captured.
Yeah, I think there's no doubt that there's in, you know, I think in a lot of people's minds, like a kind of dissonance between a perception of healthcare as this slower moving, right?
Dominated by legacy software.
At the same time, maybe it's been one of the what, if not the fastest, one of the two or three fastest kind of adoption stories in any vertical.
I think
It's a couple of things.
One, I think, is just that, you know, the like pressure can only build for so long in a system where it has to release.
And I think that the the untenable position that doctors have been in with the demands for throughput, the demands for completing ever more kind of like digital paperwork and like the limited hours in the day, like it was just like it really is just such a perfect use case.
That's something something had to give.
and so i think that moment that once people realized it worked and then we continued to iterate and improve at this high velocity i i think things change and i say from an implementation standpoint you know people are so used to software that changes like on an annual cadence or a quarterly cadence that like for them to suddenly be in a world where first first like there's the adoption story and that i think actually has been smooth it's been kind of wild i think once people realized it was happening
we just, the shift in the ground was so sudden that we went in one or two years from the first system trying it to systems feel like if they don't adopt an ambient system, their doctors will leave.
And so I think like at that point, like getting in the door or like them being convinced they need to, that this is the way things have, not even are going, the way things like have already gone.
And it's this question of like,
I think adopting ambient right now is no longer being on the leading edge.
It is catching up.
And then I think where there's had to be like truly some, I think like, I know it's the right word.
I'm less of a corporate guy.
I'm more of a scientist.
