A recent Doximity report reveals growing pay disparities among physicians, with women earning 26% less than men as of 2024, despite similar levels of experience and specialty considerations. While the overall physician compensation rose by 3.7% last year, the increase was disproportionately higher for men at 5.7% compared to just 1.7% for women. Additionally, pediatric subspecialists face significant financial challenges, earning far less than their adult counterparts and reporting reimbursement issues that hinder early intervention efforts. This widening pay gap and financial strain may ultimately impact the quality of care provided, raising concerns among healthcare professionals regarding the sustainability of pediatric medicine.

Ohio has implemented new cybersecurity regulations for local governments aimed at enhancing defenses against rising cyberattacks, including ransomware incidents affecting cities like Cleveland. The regulations require local authorities to establish cybersecurity policies and mandate public approval for any ransom payments, promoting transparency and accountability in financial dealings with cybercriminals. This approach is designed to deter hasty decisions regarding ransom payments and to encourage local governments to invest in robust cybersecurity measures, contributing to broader efforts to combat cybercrime. As attacks on government entities continue to grow in frequency and complexity, these regulations represent a critical step in strengthening the resilience of municipal operations against cyber threats.

In this piece, Paul Cerrato and John Halamka, MD, of Mayo Clinic Platform critically compare today’s enthusiasm for large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT to Hans Christian Andersen’s folktale of a vain emperor paraded naked amid widespread denial. They acknowledge promising uses of LLMs - such as boosting radiology interpretation and diagnostic accuracy when deployed in systems like Microsoft’s Sequential Diagnosis Benchmark (SDBench) and the MAI Diagnostic Orchestrator (MAI-DxO), which reportedly outperform physicians on complex simulated cases - but caution that these experiments rely on idealized, structured data far removed from the messiness of real-world clinical records. More concerning, they note, is that over-reliance on generative AI can promote mental “laziness” and diminish clinicians' critical thinking - a form of cognitive offloading that echoes the emperor’s folly of mistaking illusion for reality.
