AI in healthcare - what is hype and what is real?
summary
Hospitals face a projected need for 25% more care by 2030 while having only ~75% of today's staff, and many clinicians report 50% of nurses and 20% of doctors considering leaving. Concrete deployments include speech-to-text dictation that inserts drafts directly into records, commercial radiology assistants and pilot ambient-scribe prototypes; scheduling and planning automations are in near-term pilots. Major blockers are >100 siloed databases with only ~10 systems linked, 10–20 percentage‑point model drop when moved between hospitals, on‑prem vs cloud constraints, and unclear regulation.
