Talk Description

Institution: Westmead Breast Cancer Institute, University of Sydney - New South Wales, Australia

Artificial intelligence (AI) is poised to transform cancer care by enhancing diagnostics, predicting treatment responses, and personalizing therapies. AI systems can rapidly process vast datasets, identify patterns invisible to humans, and optimize clinical decision-making. As AI takes over routine, data-heavy tasks, the role of human doctors will shift toward complex judgment, empathy, and shared decision-making with patients. Experienced clinicians must adapt by embracing AI as a tool, focusing on tasks requiring human insight, and engaging in continuous learning. Building resilience involves developing digital literacy, cultivating adaptive mindsets, and fostering collaborative, team-based care models. Question: was this written by a Bot?
