I get older, but my students stay the same age! And the buildings get newer. I'm teaching CPH100 again, an undergrad class tackling ML for healthcare. Follow along at irenechen.net/cph100 Our first class covered why we still have radiologists despite AI predictions in 2016 🤔

Come be my colleague! We're hiring FOUR professors for computational biomedicine. I truly believe UC Berkeley is one of the best places to do interdisciplinary. As a bonus, the eucalyptus grove is a great places to take walks. aprecruit.berkeley.edu/JPF05568

I love teaching aka having a captive audience. Been thinking about how AI will affect students, so I polled my class. Compared to US adults, UC Berkeley students are much more optimistic about AI for the US (net optimism: -24 vs +35) and for themselves personally (-19 vs +42)

I didn't realize Epic's AI tools had become numerous (100+) and decently good! We've come a long way since the UMich sepsis study Great writeup by @Bob_Wachter about the implications for the rest of the field

My new Substack: Epic, the leading EHR vendor, has released >100 AI tools. Choosing them over third-party tools has become the safe choice for many health systems. I explore why, and the bigger questions: can – and should – something be done about it. robertwachter.substack.com/p/damn-it-they…
