The story of whether AI would finally transform healthcare would mostly be about whether the healthcare system could implement these tools in ways that would produce better outcomes for patients, lower costs, and some relief for beleaguered doctors and nurses.And that, in turn, would be determined -- as much by history, politics, economics, pride, regulations, leadership, lawsuits, guilds, culture, workflows, inertia, greed, hubris, vibes, and zeitgeist as by graphics processing units, diffusion models, and neural networks.
