NEPHROLOGIST · MEDICAL AI RESEARCHER · EDUCATOR

Between the clinic and the computer. Will AI make physicians stronger — or weaker? Making medical AI learning a public good.

Statement

How will AI change medicine — and physicians?

As a nephrologist in daily practice, I have been measuring the intelligence of machines. How well can AI answer the questions of medicine? How accurately can it read disease from blood and urine tests? The more I measured, the more the question inverted itself — perhaps what deserves attention is not the machine, but the physician.

Before the same AI, some physicians will grow stronger while others will decline. On that divide, the future of medicine may turn. So I remain in clinical practice, verify through research, and build an open commons of learning for everyone.

How will medicine — and physicians — change with AI?I want to witness the answer as a participant.

Practice

診るCLINICIAN

Every question begins at the bedside. As a nephrologist practicing everywhere from neighborhood clinics to a university hospital, I keep watching the front line where AI enters medicine.
