"The Uncanny Valley Remaining Human in Healthcare" with Joshua Briscoe, MD
Update: 2025-07-27
Description
A problem plagues modern healthcare: machines are setting the standard of care, and human clinicians are struggling to keep up. Artificial intelligence will only make this worse. The technical mindset fragments patient care and draws us further from shalom even as pursue surrogate markers that are meant to restore health. How can we, as Christian clinicians, respond wisely and well to this problem? One response is found in the story of the God's people in the Bible, specifically in the story of Israel's adoption into the family of God.
