My new article provides a field report on AI's transition, confirming 2025 as the year progress accelerated from the lab towards the ward, now caught "Between Beta and Breakthrough."

Healthcare AI hit a quiet tipping point in '25. Multimodal & early agentic systems moved from theory into pilots, shifting expectations across the field. This piece is a grounded snapshot shaped by my LinkedIn community. substack.com/@janbeger/no...

2025 marked a shift in healthcare AI. Multimodal and early agentic systems began turning up in pilots and early integrations, not yet at scale, but close enough to influence how clinicians, hospitals,...

The future of care will belong to people who keep their minds active and let technology amplify their judgment rather than replace it. That’s where the real advantage will be, both for clinicians and for the patients who trust them.

Fanboy moment today. Got to meet Ethan Mollick in person. I’ve been following his work for a while, so actually getting to say hi and thank him felt pretty great.

Scaling access to healthcare doesn’t erase the fact that people still need to be seen, heard, and held by humans. Capability isn’t care.

AI will increasingly handle cognitive labor: diagnosis, prediction, triage, documentation, pattern recognition. As machines absorb complexity, the value of the clinician doesn’t disappear. It shifts.

For years, everyone argued about whether AI would replace radiologists. They missed the point.
The real shift isn’t about replacing the reader - it’s about rebuilding the reading room. Every step, from image acquisition to report, is being re-engineered around intelligence.

Efficiency gains don’t always lead to labor reduction; lower cost or faster throughput may expand use. This feedback loop is essential to model when estimating economic and workforce impacts of AI in healthcare.

Automation is a tool, not a goal. We should not automate just for the sake of it. Used well, automation can document processes and reduce human error, but it must serve a clear purpose. It should never be the default, no matter how clever or efficient it seems.

AI hasn’t crossed the line into independence on any radiologist task. Every core duty still requires human oversight.

With GPT-5, this is the official end of the “blank page” problem. Now the problem is having too many fully formed ideas to choose from!

AI isn't one magic box—it's layers stacked up:
- Infrastructure (data, GPUs, PyTorch)
- Perception (vision, hearing)
- Cognition (understanding, language)
- Decision-making (planning, acting)
GenAI simplifies the stack—but underneath, infrastructure still matters more than ever.

If someone tells you, “AI is better than doctors,” pause and ask: in what way? Then ask, does that mean it should replace them—or help them?
Because better on paper doesn’t always mean better for people.
