In this episode of Real Talk, Scot Morris, OD, and Rehan Ahmed, MD, dive into the concept of prompt pushback—the Socratic method of interacting with AI. They discuss how the current flood of mediocre AI content, often called “AI slop,” stems from a lack of critical engagement with these tools.
The hosts also explore why we might be entering the “trough of disillusionment” in healthcare technology. Using the historical adoption of electricity as an example, they argue that AI won’t truly revolutionize medicine until we stop trying to retrofit it into old workflows and instead build new systems with AI at their core.
