Welcome to 'AI Lawyer Talking Tech,' the podcast that explores the profound transformation occurring within the legal world. Artificial intelligence is no longer just a futuristic concept; it is actively reimagining legal services, from sophisticated tools capable of managing multi-step tasks to AI-powered law firms redefining efficiency for private market investors. While firms are quickly integrating AI into workflows for everything from drafting to internal inquiries and even merger support, the technology still faces significant challenges, including the crucial need for AI to automatically understand user context, the risk of AI 'hallucinations' fabricating information, and complex issues surrounding data privacy, bias, and legal liability. Regulatory bodies worldwide are also addressing these complexities, with new action plans and comprehensive laws shaping the responsible development and deployment of AI. Today, we delve into how legal professionals and policymakers are shaping the future of law in this rapidly evolving AI era.Context is king when it comes to AI24 Jul 2025City A.M.Pinsent Masons: Pinsent Masons and ContractPodAi forge strategic partnership to expand AI-powered legal services24 Jul 2025ContractPodAiInitial Reactions to the White House AI Action Plan: Five Things U.S. Businesses Should Know24 Jul 2025Debevoise Data BlogLexisNexis unveils Protégé AI assistant to boost UK legal work23 Jul 2025IT Brief UKContractPodAi Expands Global Team to Power Next Phase of Legal AI Growth23 Jul 2025Legal ReaderIs Your AI Scribe HIPAA-Compliant?23 Jul 2025Health LeadersPartner Who Wrote About AI Ethics, Fired For Citing Fake AI Cases23 Jul 2025Above The LawFrom Data to Decisions: Navigating Privacy and Litigation Risks in the AI Era23 Jul 2025JD SupraReflections on the CALL/ACBD Conference23 Jul 2025In Custodia LegisAI isn't just entering law offices—it's challenging the entire legal playbook23 Jul 2025Yahoo!

Haley Carswell, Vice President at Zynex Medical, joins us to share her unconventional path from managing a tanning salon to leading in the world of non-invasive pain management. What started as a pivot away from law school, thanks to advice from her father, became a thriving career built on people skills, grit, and an eye for strategy. Today, Haley supports her team through data-driven planning, leadership, and market insights that drive results. We dive into the emotional transitions that shaped her journey, including a powerful chapter in addiction treatment. Haley opens up about the personal loss that fueled her passion for mental health advocacy, and how working through the COVID crisis in recovery centers gave her a new perspective on purpose. Her move into medical sales was more than a career shift — it was a chance to align with her mission to support non-addictive pain solutions. This episode is a powerful reminder that the road to success isn't always linear. From tanning salons to treatment centers to medical device sales, Haley's story proves that resilience, relationships, and the courage to pivot can lead to impact and fulfillment.

Evan Steele, Founder and CEO of online reputation management company rater8, emphasizes the importance of online reviews for healthcare providers and how patients are increasingly relying on reviews to select a doctor. The key to generating reviews is to actively ask for feedback and acknowledge receipt of comments. Negative reviews and low-star ratings can encourage practices to respond to comments, improving the patient experience and demonstrating to patients that the practice cares. Evan explains, "Now, you look in your insurance guide to see which providers in your area accept the insurance. There's a Facebook group. You might ask, Who do I go to see for my shoulder that hurts for an orthopedic surgeon? You ask your friends and family, your PCP gives you some names, and you start going down the list. And what's changed is if you call that first doctor on the list and they don't have great reviews, you might not even call them, but let's say you call them and they have a convenient time, and a location is convenient, but the next doctor has 150 reviews, 4.9 stars." "You read the comments, patients love this doctor. Even if the appointment time is not convenient for you or the drive is a little further than the most convenient location, you're going to book an appointment with that doctor. Just like I would never even think of dining at a 3.8-star rated restaurant. I wouldn't trust my health, my life, and my well-being to a 3.8-rated doctor. So I think people are making decisions now based on online reviews and even going out of their way and being inconvenienced to make sure they get the right doctor." #rater8 #ReputationManagement #PatientFeedback #PatientEngagement #PracticeGrowth #TrustMarketing #PatientAcquisition #PatientProviderRelationship rater8.com Listen to the podcast here

A new study from Philip Morris International reveals that widespread misconceptions about nicotine are undermining tobacco harm reduction in clinical care. Nearly two-thirds of U.S. healthcare professionals, including primary care doctors, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants, mistakenly believe that nicotine causes cancer. In this episode of RegWatch, filmed on location at the 2025 Global Forum on Nicotine in Warsaw, we unpack the findings with Dr. Pritika Kumar, U.S. Director of Scientific Engagement at Philip Morris International. We explore why these misconceptions persist, how they impact patient counseling, and what role the FDA could play in helping healthcare providers better understand the continuum of risk across nicotine products. Dr. Kumar also discusses the science behind PMI's successful application for a Modified Risk Tobacco Product order for General Snus and IQOS, and what that says about the quality of industry-funded research.

Anders Sorensen is a Danish clinical psychologist with a PhD in psychiatry who has dedicated his career to an area that most professionals won't touch—and that most patients don't even know exists. He's one of the world's leading authorities on psychiatric drug dependence and the complex science of safely discontinuing these medications. His upcoming book represents years of clinical research and hands-on experience helping hundreds of people navigate what may be one of the most misunderstood medical challenges of our time. This isn't just another podcast about mental health. This is a conversation that could fundamentally change how you understand psychiatric medications, withdrawal, and what's actually happening in the brains and bodies of millions of Americans right now. Dr. McFillin and Anders dive into territory that most medical professionals avoid—not because it's controversial, but because it requires a level of specialized knowledge that simply doesn't exist in mainstream medicine. What you'll hear challenges everything you've been told about these medications, reveals why so many people feel "trapped" on their prescriptions, and exposes a gap in medical care that's affecting countless lives.Substack: https://crossingzero.substack.com/X: https://x.com/_AndersSorensenRADICALLY GENUINE PODCASTDr. Roger McFillin / Radically Genuine WebsiteYouTube @RadicallyGenuineDr. Roger McFillin (@DrMcFillin) / XSubstack | Radically Genuine | Dr. Roger McFillinInstagram @radicallygenuineContact Radically GenuineConscious Clinician CollectivePLEASE SUPPORT OUR PARTNERS15% Off Pure Spectrum CBD (Code: RadicallyGenuine)10% off Lovetuner click here Dr. Roger McFillin / Radically Genuine WebsiteYouTube @RadicallyGenuineDr. Roger McFillin (@DrMcFillin) / XSubstack | Radically Genuine | Dr. Roger McFillinInstagram @radicallygenuineContact Radically GenuineConscious Clinician CollectivePLEASE SUPPORT OUR PARTNERS15% Off Pure Spectrum CBD (Code: RadicallyGenuine)10% off Lovetuner click here

In this enlightening "snack episode," host Miranda Dorta turns the mic around to interview Tracy Cherpeski about the critical connection between leadership approaches and healthcare practice success. Tracy reveals how healthcare providers often exhibit confidence in clinical settings but struggle with business leadership, sharing practical insights on adapting leadership styles while maintaining authenticity. She introduces the concept of "changing hats" to help practitioners mentally transition between clinical and leadership roles, and emphasizes that micromanagement isn't always negative when applied strategically. Tracy's most impactful leadership tip? The power of the pause—what she calls "WAIT" (Why Am I Talking?)—allowing leaders to respond thoughtfully rather than reactively.  Episode Highlights:  The pattern Tracy observed in healthcare providers: confidence in clinical delegation but timidity in business leadership  How practitioners can transfer clinical skills to leadership while knowing which habits to "surgically remove"  The cognitive trick of "changing hats" to help the brain switch between clinical and leadership mindsets  Why micromanagement isn't always negative and when it might be necessary  The most powerful leadership adjustment: learning to pause before reacting  Memorable Quotes:  "Sometimes their business model is to hope for the best."  "Leadership doesn't mean knowing everything. It doesn't mean being in command or control of every single thing."  "Micromanagement - it's not a four-letter word, but it sounds like it could be."  "If you take your hands off, not abdicate your responsibility for success, but take your hands off and let them do their work, they will rise to the occasion."  "We call it WAIT. It's an acronym. Why Am I Talking?"  Miranda's Bio:  Miranda Dorta, B.F.A. (she/her/hers) is the Manager of Operations and PR at Tracy Cherpeski International.
