Fall Summit 2026: AI in Health Care: Reporting What's Real

It’s all around us: the AI “revolution.” And for journalists, it’s a tough subject to stay on top of for audiences who want to know what it all means for their health. Questions of data privacy and security, accountability and workforce impact underlie many of the decisions being made about using this powerful tool. What exactly are its best uses?

Separating hype from reality is half the battle.

Join us Oct. 8-9 in Los Angeles for a two-day exploration of some of the most important topics related to the use of artificial intelligence in health care. We’ll talk about:

• How to get clarity at blur speed

• How AI is changing provider-patient interactions

• AI and prevention: Sepsis as a case study

• Making ethical decisions: A real-life situation

• How medical students are learning to navigate AI tools

• The patient and the pill: How AI could change drug development and prescribing

• The health care workforce: Will AI replace jobs, save us from a shortage of health care workers or both?

• Disasters and machine learning

This summit is possible with support from Cedars-Sinai and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
