Picture this. You walk into a clinic, and before a human being says one word to you, a machine has viewed and summarized your medical records.

The Machines Will See You Now: A Human Roadmap to Autonomous Healthcare with Anmol Madan

Like it or not, Artificial Intelligence has moved from the research lab into the exam room. Before you see your doctor, AI’s reviewed all of your scans, tests, history, and ratings. And red-flagged anything the AI tool thinks important.

Does that feel like the future of healthcare you want? For many, replacing the human touch with AI raises big questions.

Machines make mistakes. They’re cold. Impersonal. AI hallucinates. And maybe the biggest question: What happens to the human connection with your doctor, radiologist, cardiologist?

Anmol Madan, author of The Machines Will See You Now: A Human Roadmap to Autonomous Health Care, discusses the pros and cons of AI in healthcare. He shares where we’re heading, and why Anmol says that‘s “very good news”.

Meet Anmol Madan

An MIT-trained computer scientist, Anmol Madan was the co-founder/CEO of Ginger.io (acquired by Headspace). He’s the former Chief Data Scientist at Teladoc/Livongo, and the current CEO of RadiantGraph. In The Machines Will See You Now: A Human Roadmap to Autonomous Health Care, Anmol argues for “autonomous health” – machines and human doctors in partnership, with machines handling diagnostics, prediction, and prevention so clinicians can focus on empathy.

FEB 04: James Rollins’ Crucible, Karen Kingsbury’s Best Family Ever, Sarah Morgan’s One Summer in Paris

Stephen Hawking portended that Artificial Intelligence is likely to be the end of humankind. In Crucible, returning guest James Rollins probes the question: If humans are to co-exist with A.I., what do we need to do to ensure our survival?  His answer lies in a much more complex question – what does it mean to have a soul?

James is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of international thrillers, translated into more than forty languages, with more than 20 million copies sold.  Check out his last CLV appearance here!

We’ll begin today with another returning guest, Karen Kingsbury, who is launching a new series of books for children, co-written with her son Tyler Russell.  We’ll discover what prompted them to work together … and how that went. And what makes this series different to many kids’ books currently on the shelves.

Karen is a #1 New York Times bestselling novelist, with many of her novels under development as major motion pictures. Her Baxter Family books are being developed into a TV series slated to debut fall 2019.

And joining us from the UK, USA Today bestselling author, Sarah Morgan. She’s known for writing hot, happy, contemporary romance and women’s fiction, and has won the prestigious RITA award three times.

Her new story begins with a husband who wants a divorce and a solo trip to Paris where she meets someone … but not the someone you might think. One Summer in Paris comes out in April — join us today for an exclusive sneak peek with Sarah!
