Support our work: https://democracynow.org/donate/sm-desc-yt As part of our ongoing series on artificial intelligence, we speak with researcher Shreya Johri, who says AI has the power to revolutionize the field of medicine, particularly in diagnosing patients. Johri is a postdoctoral fellow at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and completed her PhD at Harvard Medical School in 2025. She discusses ways that new technology is improving patient care, but she says AI must be treated like an additional tool and not be given control over patient care. "Doctors have to be responsible, have to take the responsibility of this until we are more confident we have frameworks developed that can deploy these AI models in a more responsible way," she says.
