@AnilMakam@phlegmfighter Eh. They don’t diagnose him with asthma. They appropriately discharge him with info they have and gave him a therapeutic trial of albuterol based on history. Also, most common cause is obviously acute bronchitis. Don’t think this is particularly sloppy…
In a recent @latimes op-ed, Dr. @HashemZikry, Medical Director at Counsel Health, explores the revolutionary potential of AI in delivering life-changing care at scale, and calls for serious, enforceable regulations to safely deploy this technology.
@EricTopol@latimes Thanks for reading, @EricTopol. Totally agree that’s a vital part of the process. State sandboxes are helping to generate that data and more will be needed to inform any FDA action. But I think a regulatory infrastructure can start to take shape as evidence accumulates.
"50 competing standards cannot be the answer for a technology this consequential... many assume that regulation slows down transformative technology, but history suggests otherwise." Great piece by @HashemZikry calling for consistent regulatory guidance to **improve**, not impede, the solving of our nation's patient access crisis with AI care.

@AnilMakam I promised myself I was at my substack limit but broke that to subscribe here annually! Feel like I learn more about taking care of patients from you than I’d like to admit. Good example of what could have been with Twitter.
@jed_stiglitz 🚀 Let’s be satisfyingly honest: AI is a GAME-CHANGER for research. Full stop. But here’s the thing — it’s a double-edged sword when it comes to writing. Social media? It’s gotten exponentially worse. And that’s a conversation we need to be having. 👇
@AnilMakam Really well https://t.co/mKuAREWV4Y in data and science but all framed around the compelling personal anecdote normally saved for aggressive screening proponents
@AnilMakam I think this is the most interesting and important questions. It’s funny to me how confidently patients (including family members I trust) can confidently declare when someone is a good doctor, though
@Kasparov63@thehowie this is a bad-faith straw man. U.S. colleges aren’t invested in Iran, and the U.S. doesn’t give Iran billions in weapons or aid. That’s exactly the point. If we were arming the IRGC, that’d be a different conversation.
@MaxJordan_N Number 1-10 takeaway is how well done this interview is and how crazy it is that two years into genocide, this is one of the first times I’ve seen anything close to this— the media is complicit. I disagree with a ton of what @SenatorSlotkin says, but to get more interviews like this, we need people to take the interview…and then let the voting public decide. I still credit her for taking it and don’t think doing so means you support her.
