Ok Bluesky. I’m going to engage. 😁
Bigger isn’t always better! Dr. Emily Alsentzer’s research shows that smaller, specialized clinical #AI models can outperform massive general-purpose models in medicine — at a fraction of the cost. Listen to the full episode: nejm.ai/4gOGeSo

Dr. Zak Kohane, editor-in-chief of @ai.nejm.org, received the Pioneer Award at #PMWC25. Congratulations to Dr. Kohane for being recognized for his exemplary contributions to precision medicine!
For anyone working in #housing or #health who hasn't discovered them yet, the Healthy Homes Hub podcasts are fantastic!
Such accessible, engaging discussions from true experts.
They have become my go-to podcast for commuting! Thanks for a brilliant resource.
