(RESPONSES/COMMENTS (AI AND PODIATRY)

RE: AI and Podiatry

From: Allen M. Jacobs, DPM

 

There was an old toy you may recall, the magic eight ball. You would ask a question then shake the ball. An answer would then float into a window (e.g.: yes, no, or try again). I feel as though the questions I ask AI regarding the future of podiatry are a recreation of the magic eight ball. Within seconds I am given an answer. It creates in me the very same feeling-certainly more scientific but nevertheless the very same feeling.

 

I posed the question to AI: how do we elevate the DPM degree to the same level of respect as an MD or DO degree? Click here to read the proposed answer.
