Abstract: What does it mean to give professional advice, and how do things change when various forms of technology, such as decision-support software, predictive advice-generating algorithms, or generative AI are inserted into the process of professional advice-giving? This talk considers the introduction of generative AI into the healthcare provider-patient relationship.
