Doctors are getting on board with genAI, survey shows

April 23, 2024

A recent survey by Wolters Kluwer highlights a growing acceptance of generative artificial intelligence (genAI) among physicians, with 70% expressing enthusiasm for its benefits in healthcare. Despite physicians’ optimism, there remains a significant disconnect between their perceptions and those of consumers regarding AI's role in medical advice and decisions. The survey notes that while most doctors believe genAI can enhance patient care and efficiency in data management, clear guidelines for AI use are still underdeveloped in many healthcare institutions. Additionally, there are concerns about the transparency of AI sources and the trustworthiness of AI applications in medical settings.

Hospitals are moving to home care in effort to free up hospital beds, and it’s working

April 23, 2024

Grand River Hospital and St. Mary’s General Hospital in Waterloo Region are experiencing early success with their Hospital to Home programs, designed to shift patient care from hospital beds to home settings. These programs are proving effective in accelerating patient recovery, reducing complications, and making more hospital beds available for critical cases. The initiative involves comprehensive care plans extending up to 12 weeks, administrative support from Ontario Health, and other local care organizations, ensuring a seamless transition from hospital to home care. This strategy not only relieves pressure on hospital resources but also aids in preventing longer-term health issues associated with extended hospital stays.

2024 and beyond: Will it be economic stagnation or the advent of productivity-driven abundance?

April 23, 2024

In the article, "2024 and beyond: Will it be economic stagnation or the advent of productivity-driven abundance?", authors Ezra Greenberg, Asutosh Padhi, and Sven Smit discuss the economic outlook for 2024, emphasizing the uncertainty and challenges posed by geopolitical tensions, shifts in the global economy, and technological advancements. Despite short-term risks, they argue that seizing a three-sided productivity opportunity—comprising upskilling workers, enhancing operational efficiency, and strategically investing in technology—can propel companies towards growth and profitability. This approach, they claim, is critical not only for individual businesses but could also significantly elevate broader economic performance if widely adopted, potentially leading to a period of abundance characterized by increased jobs, corporate value, technological progress, and economic growth.
