How AI Helps Doctors: 7 Ways AI Gives Doctors Back Their Time In this episode, Barbara discusses: Barbara Hales names the “invisible second shift”—the unpaid hours physicians spend at home on charts, portal messages, and paperwork—and how it steals time from family and rest. Barbara Hales shares seven practical ways to use AI as an assistant, not a replacement, including ambient scribing, drafting portal responses, summarizing research, and streamlining insurance and administrative tasks. Barbara Hales contrasts two physicians—one using AI and one doing everything manually—to show how saving just 30–60 minutes a day can compound into 120–240 hours a year. Barbara Hales explains how AI can multiply a physician's impact by turning everyday patient questions and explanations into reusable education materials and marketing content that grow the practice without adding more work hours. Barbara Hales insists that doctors must “delegate the task, never delegate the judgment,” emphasizing privacy, safety, and clinical oversight so AI reduces burnout while preserving trust and the humanity of medicine. Key Takeaways: “AI's real power in medicine isn't replacing physicians—it's reclaiming the invisible hours lost to documentation and administration so doctors can be fully present with their patients and in their own lives again.” Connect with Barbara Hales:  Twitter: @DrBarbaraHales Facebook: facebook.com/theMedicalStrategist Business Website: TheMedicalStrategist.com Email: info@TheMedicalStrategist.com  YouTube:@barbarahales LinkedIn: https://www.LinkedIn.com/in/barbarahalesBooks: Content Copy Made Easy 14 Tactics to Triple Sales TRANSCRIPTION (245) 7 Ways AI Gives Doctors Back Their Time Chapter 1 — Why Physicians Need Their Time Back Dr. Barbara Hales 00:04 Hello, everyone. Welcome back to Marketing Tips for Doctors. When was the last time you finished seeing your last patient, and you were actually finished for the day? Not finished seeing patients, finished. No charts waiting for you. No patient portal messages. No paperwork you promised yourself you’d finished after dinner. No laptop sitting on the kitchen counter staring at you while your family is doing something without you. If you’re laughing right now, I understand because for many physicians, the workday doesn’t end when the office closes; it just changes location. You go home, have dinner, maybe spend some time with your family, and then out comes the laptop, and somewhere along the way, something happened to medicine. We became doctors because we wanted to take care of people. We did not go to medical school because we had a burning desire to become world-class data entry specialists. We didn’t dream about answering portal messages. We didn’t fantasize about prior authorizations, and I’m fairly certain that when you wrote your medical school application essay, you didn’t say, “My lifelong ambition is to spend more evenings completing documentation, yet here we are, and that is why I want to talk about artificial intelligence today. Not because AI is fashionable, not because everybody is talking about ChatGPT, and certainly not because I think technology should replace physicians. Quite the opposite. I think we need to ask a completely different question: Can technology give physicians enough time back that we can actually be physicians again? Apparently, doctors are beginning to think the answer may be yes. According to the American Medical Association’s 2026 Physician Survey on Augmented Intelligence, 81% of physicians now report using AI professionally. That’s more than double the percentage in 2023. Think about that. In only a few years, AI went from something many doctors viewed with suspicion to something being used in medical practices every day, and here’s another number that really caught my attention: 70% of physicians surveyed by the AMA said they see AI as a tool that can automate tasks contributing to work-related burnout. So today, I’m going to show you seven practical ways physicians can use AI to get some of their time back. But before we get to those seven, I want to talk about what we’re really trying to solve, because the problem is not technology. The problem is time. The invisible second shift. Picture a physician we’ll call Dr. Sarah. Sarah has a busy primary care practice. Her last patient leaves at 515. She gets home around Her husband has dinner waiting. Her daughter sits at the table, telling everyone about something that happened at school. Sarah is listening, sort of, because part of her brain is thinking about the unfinished charts. She knows there are 11 of them, so she eats dinner. She asks her daughter a few questions. She helps clear the table. And then she says the sentence that physician families know all too well. I just have to finish a few charts. She opens the laptop. 8 o’clock becomes nine. Nine becomes 10. Her daughter goes to bed. Sarah finally closes the computer at 1037, and here’s the sad part: nothing particularly unusual happened that day. There wasn’t an emergency. Nobody crashed. There wasn’t a complicated admission. It was simply Tuesday. That story is a composite, but I’ll bet many physicians listening recognize themselves in it. This is what I call the invisible second shift of medicine, and this is precisely where I believe physicians should begin thinking about AI, not with robots, not with futuristic diagnostic machines. Start with what I do every day that doesn’t actually require me to be a physician, because that is where your time is hiding. Let’s begin with the obvious one: documentation. AI-powered ambient scribes can listen to the physician-patient conversation with appropriate systems, safeguards, and consent procedures, and generate a draft clinical note. You review it, you correct it, you approve it. The physician remains responsible, but you’re no longer starting with a blank page. And this isn’t just theoretical. In one medical group study involving 79 providers and more than 25,000 AI-generated notes across 23 specialties, high users of an ambient AI scribe had a 21% decrease in time spent on notes per day. Chapter 2 — AI for Documentation, Inbox, and Patient Education Dr. Barbara Hales  07:26 Even more interesting to me was what happened after work. Before the pilot, about 32% of participating providers reported spending eight or more hours per week documenting outside clinic hours during AI use, which dropped to about 8%. Think about it: 32% to 8%. That’s not just an efficiency statistic. That’s dinner. That’s exercise. That’s reading a book. That’s going to your child’s soccer game. That’s sitting on the couch and doing absolutely nothing and not feeling guilty about it-that is life. Imagine Sarah again. Only now her practice introduces a properly vetted ambient AI documentation system. At first, she’s skeptical. She checks every note carefully, and she should, but gradually something changes. Instead of writing the entire note after the visit, she reviews and corrects a draft. One evening, she gets home. She puts her purse down. She walks into the kitchen, and her daughter looks at her and says, “Mom, where’s your computer? Sarah says, “In my bag. Her daughter looks confused. “Aren’t you going to take it out? And Sarah says, “Nope, I’m done. Now that’s an illustrative story, but that is the outcome we’re talking about. We’re not trying to make physicians type faster. We’re trying to make it possible for physicians to stop typing. Next, the inbox. Ah, yes, the inbox-the place where a message that begins with “Quick question, doctor, occasionally contains 14 questions, three attachments, and a medical History going back to 1987. AI can help draft responses to routine patient communications. Notice the word I used: draft, not diagnose, not independently prescribe, not send medical advice without physician review. Draft. You provide the judgment. AI provides the first pass. The 2026 AMA survey found physicians are already using AI to generate draft responses to patient portal messages; think about the difference between writing 20 responses from scratch and reviewing 20 reasonable drafts. Even saving two or three minutes per message adds up, and there’s another benefit: AI can help you turn a rushed answer into a clear, patient-friendly explanation. You still decide what is medically appropriate, but AI can help you communicate it more efficiently. AI use number three: patient education. Here’s an area I think is enormously underused. How many times have you explained the same thing? What does pre-diabetes mean? Why do I need this medication? What should I expect after this procedure? What does this lab result mean? Why do I need to come back in six months? You explain it Monday, then Tuesday, then Wednesday, and Thursday morning. You’re explaining it again. What if you created a physician-approved library of patient education materials? AI can help you take your explanation and turn it into a one-page handout, a frequently asked questions sheet, a patient-friendly email, a short video script, or instructions written at a more accessible reading level. You review it for accuracy. Then you have something reusable. This is where AI becomes more than a time-saving tool; it becomes a way to multiply a physician’s knowledge without multiplying their hours. Doctor using AI versus doctors who aren’t. Now let’s compare two physicians. Same specialty, same number of physicians, same number of patients, same clinical ability. Doctor A is not using AI. Every note begins from scratch. Every patient handout is created manually, or the staff searches for one. Every portal response is typed individually. Every complicated article takes 20 minutes to read before Doctor A determines whether it matters. Every piece of administrative work begins with a blank page; Doctor B uses AI selectively, and I want to emphasize selectively. AI drafts the note. Doctor B reviews it. AI drafts the portal response. Doctor B corrects and approves it. AI turns the doctor’s explanation into patient education. Doctor B verifies it. AI summarizes a long research article. Doctor B goes to the source before making a clinical decision. Doctor B is not surrendering a medical judgment. Doctor B is eliminating unnecessary friction. That distinction matters because the physician who uses AI appropriately isn’t necessarily practicing medicine faster; they’re spending less time on everything surrounding medicine, and the difference compounds. 10 minutes here, 15. Minutes there, 20 minutes somewhere else. Pretty soon, we’re not talking about minutes anymore. We’re talking about hours. AI used number four, keeping up with medical literature. Here’s another struggle physicians know very well: the literature never stops. Studies, guidelines, drug updates, safety alerts, consensus statements, journal articles. Nobody can read everything. Chapter 3 — AI as a Research Assistant, Not a Doctor Dr. Barbara Hales 15:40 The AMA’s 2026 survey actually found that summarizing medical research and standards of care was the most commonly reported physician use of AI among the specific use cases measured. That tells us something important. Doctors aren’t only looking for help with paperwork; they’re using AI to help manage information overload. Suppose there are six recent papers on a subject relevant to your specialty. Instead of reading every word of every paper, AI can help you identify the research questions, study size, primary outcomes, where the findings agreed, and where they conflicted. What limitations should you pay attention to? Then, and this is critical, you go back to the original evidence when the information will affect patient care. AI becomes the map. It does not become the destination, and that brings us to something every physician listening needs to hear. AI is an assistant, not the doctor. AI can be wrong; it can misunderstand context. It can omit information. It can confidently produce something that sounds wonderful and is completely incorrect. And physicians know something that technology does not possess: clinical judgment. We know the difference between the textbook patient and the human being sitting in front of us. We notice hesitation. We notice fear. We notice when someone says, “I’m fine, while everything about them tells us they’re not fine. Medicine is not simply information. Medicine is interpretation. Medicine is judgment. Medicine is trust. So the goal is not how much medicine can I turn over to AI. The better question is, how much non-physician work can I take away from the physician? That is a very different conversation. In part two, I’m going to show you three more ways to use AI, including one that can help you create weeks of marketing content from something you’re already doing every single day, and I’ll tell you another story. This one is about a doctor who realizes the greatest thing AI gave him wasn’t efficiency. It was something much more valuable. It gave him back a Saturday. So here are seven ways doctors can use AI to get their time back. What would you do with the hours AI gave back? At the end of part one, I told you about a doctor who got something unexpected from AI-a Saturday. Let me explain. The Saturday morning that came back, we’ll call him Dr. Michael again. This is a composite story based on the kinds of workflow problems physicians experience. Michael owns a small specialty practice, and every Saturday morning he has a routine: coffee, laptop, kitchen table. He tells some. He tells himself he’ll work for an hour. It’s almost never an hour. Charts to finish, letters to dictate, patient messages, administrative correspondence, and things he didn’t get to during the week. His wife has learned not to ask when he’ll be finished. One Saturday, after his practice has begun using AI to help with documentation and routine administrative drafting, Michael wakes up. He makes coffee. He walks toward the kitchen table, and there’s no laptop sitting there. He had finished his work Friday. His wife says, “Do you want to go get breakfast? And for the first time in longer than he can remember, he does not say, “Maybe later. He says, “Sure. Now you could look at that and say, “AI saved him three hours. I don’t think that’s what happened. AI gave him back Saturday morning with his wife. We have to stop measuring physician efficiency only in minutes. We need to start measuring it in life. AI used number five insurance correspondence and administrative drafting. Now let’s talk about one of everyone’s favorite subjects: insurance. I can practically hear you groaning. Prior authorizations, appeal letters, medical necessity letters, supporting documentation, repetitive administrative correspondence. This is precisely the kind of structured, repetitive work where AI can assist. A physician or staff member can provide the relevant, privacy-safe information in an approved system and have AI help draft a first version. Then someone qualified reviews it. This isn’t about fabricating an argument. It isn’t about inserting facts that aren’t in the chart. Chapter 4 — Administrative Work, Practice Operations, and Content Dr. Barbara Hales 22:44 It is about organizing legitimate clinical information into the format needed for the task, and this matters because physicians did not train for all those years so that their most limited resource, their time, could be consumed fighting with forums; AI may not make the insurance company say yes. Wouldn’t that be nice? But it may reduce the amount of physician time required to ask the question. AI use number six: practical operations. Here’s one physicians often overlook: AI doesn’t have to touch clinical medicine to be useful. Look around your practice. How many repetitive processes exist? Staff training, frequently asked questions, office policies, meeting summaries, job descriptions, phone scripts, patient reminders, internal checklists, responses to online reviews, ideas for improving scheduling, drafting standard operating procedures. You don’t need a medical AI system to ask, “Help me turn this messy process into a checklist. You don’t need AI making clinical decisions to say, “Here are the five questions patients ask my receptionist every day. Help me draft clear answers. And here’s one I particularly like. At the end of your staff meeting, take your approved, non-sensitive meeting notes and ask AI to organize them into: what did we decide? Who is responsible? What’s the deadline? What needs follow-up? Suddenly, a meeting produces action instead of another meeting. Now we’re talking. AI use number seven. Mark. And patient communication. This one is particularly close to my heart. Doctors tell me, Barbara, I know I should create content. I just don’t have time, and I understand. But here’s what I want you to realize: you are already creating content all day long; you’re just not capturing it. Every patient question is potential educational content. Think about today: how many questions did patients ask you? Should I be worried about this? Is this hereditary? When should I get screened? Is there anything I can do to prevent this? What’s the difference between these two treatments? One idea, multiple assets. Those questions can become a short video, a blog post, a patient email, a special media post, a podcast topic, or an FAQ on your website-you provide the expertise. AI helps you repurpose it. For example, you might say, “Patients ask me this question constantly. Here is the explanation I usually give them. Then dictate your explanation and ask AI. Turn this into a 62nd video script written in my conversational style. Then give me three possible titles. Then turn the same information into a patient email. Then create five short social posts from it.  That is where AI can become an extraordinary multiplier for a small medical practice, not because AI becomes the physician’s voice, but because it helps the physician’s real voice travel further. Here’s a story. The patient who finally felt heard. Let me give you one last story. We’ll call the physician Dr. Patel. Dr. Patel has always been the kind of doctor who looks directly at patients when they are speaking. At least she used to be. Then came increasingly complicated documentation requirements, and gradually she found herself doing what so many physicians do: patient talking, doctor typing, patient talking, doctor clicking, patient asking something important, doctor saying, “Give me one second. While finishing a field on the screen, then her practice begins using an ambient documentation tool. She’s still responsible for the note. She still reviews it, but during the encounter, something changes. She turns away from the computer. She looks at her patient, an older woman who has been seeing her for years, and suddenly stops in the middle of the conversation. Doctor Patel asks, “Is there something wrong? The patient smiles and says, “No, I was just thinking how nice it is to see your face again. That story is illustrative, but think about what it represents. We keep talking about AI as though technology will make medicine less human. Used badly, perhaps it could, but what if we use it to do exactly the opposite? What if technology handles more of the machinery of medicine, so physicians have more time for the humanity of medicine? That’s the opportunity that interests me. Now let’s turn to our two physicians, Doctor A and Doctor B. Remember, they started in essentially the same place, same specialty, same patient volume, same clinical competence. Doctor A continues doing everything manually. Doctor B gradually delegates appropriate repetitive work to carefully selected AI tools, not clinical judgment work. Chapter 5 — Reclaiming Time, Using AI Safely, and Staying Human Dr. Barbara Hales 29:57 Doctor B saves a few minutes. Documenting, a few minutes on correspondence, a few minutes researching, a few minutes creating patient materials, a few minutes handling administrative tasks. Let’s be conservative and imagine that adds up to only 30 minutes a day, five days a week. That’s two and a half hours, over roughly 48 working weeks. That’s 120 hours a year. Think of that-a 120 hours, three full 40-hour work weeks, and that’s from saving only 30 minutes per day. If the physician saves an hour, now we’re talking about approximately 240 hours, six work weeks. So ask yourself: What would you do with six weeks of your life? Would you see more patients? Would you leave the office earlier? Would you exercise? Would you finally take the vacation you’ve postponed? Would you have dinner with your family without your laptop? Would you sit with a patient for an extra three minutes instead of watching the clock? Would you grow your practice? Would you create another revenue stream? Would you simply sleep? There isn’t a correct answer. The point is, you get to decide. Start small. If you are listening to this and thinking, Barbara, this sounds great, but I don’t even know where to begin. Don’t begin with seven things. Begin with one. Tomorrow, notice the task that makes you say, “I can’t believe I’m wasting my time doing this again. Write it down. That’s your candidate. Then ask, “Could AI draft this? Could AI summarize this? Could AI organize this? Could AI turn this into a template? Could AI help my staff do this without involving me every single time? You don’t need to transform your entire practice this month. Choose one repetitive task. Get comfortable. Measure whether it actually saves time. Then choose another. That’s how change becomes sustainable. A word about safety. Because we’re physicians, I need to emphasize something very important: convenience does not outrank confidentiality. Don’t copy protected patient information into a public consumer AI tool. Your practice needs to evaluate privacy, security, HIPAA requirements, vendor agreements, accuracy, workflow integration, and appropriate human oversight, and every clinically relevant AI-generated output needs appropriate professional review. Delegate the task, Never delegate the judgment. AI can generate extraordinarily convincing errors. So remember this: delegate the task, never delegate the judgment. That sentence may be the most important thing I say in this entire episode. If today’s episode made you look at your workday differently, do two things. First, choose one task this week that AI might be able to take partially off your plate. Don’t try to revolutionize your entire practice. Just reclaim 10 minutes, and second, subscribe to Marketing Tips for Doctors and share this episode with another physician who is still taking the laptop home every night, because every week on Marketing Tips for Doctors we talk about practical ways to build a stronger, more profitable medical practice without sacrificing the reason you became a physician in the first place. And remember, you’re one tweak away from greatness. AI won’t solve everything that’s wrong with medicine. It won’t eliminate insurance headaches. It won’t fix reimbursement overnight. It won’t replace the judgment that comes from years of training and experience. And I don’t want it to. What I want AI to replace is something very different: the unnecessary hour at the computer, the repetitive letter, the blank page, the administrative task that followed you home, the Saturday morning you were supposed to spend with someone you love, because perhaps the most exciting promise of artificial intelligence in medicine is not artificial intelligence at all. Perhaps it’s giving physicians the time to be More human, and if technology can help us do that, then I think it’s worth paying attention to. I’m Dr. Barbara Hales. Thank you for joining me on Marketing Tips for Doctors. Till next time. The post How AI Helps Doctors first appeared on The Medical Strategist.

Can ketogenic therapy improve symptoms, cognition, and metabolic health in people living with serious mental illness?In this episode of Metabolic Mind, Dr. Bret Scher speaks with Dr. Judy Ford, Juliette Kyner (previously Juliette Ward), and Dr. Shebani Sethi about the first-ever randomized controlled trial of a ketogenic diet intervention in individuals living with schizophrenia spectrum disorder or bipolar I disorder with psychotic features.The conversation explores what made this trial possible, from prepared meals and coaching to the structured support that helped participants stay engaged. It also highlights encouraging four-month findings across metabolic health, cognition, depressive symptoms, and both positive and negative psychiatric symptoms.They discuss:Why this trial is an important step for metabolic psychiatryHow participants adhered to a ketogenic diet with structured supportWhat changed in metabolic health markers like BMI, A1C, and HOMA-IRWhy cognitive improvements were especially meaningfulHow positive symptoms, negative symptoms, and depressive symptoms changed over timeWhat family members noticed as participants re-engaged with daily lifeWhy future studies may need to be longer, larger, and more mechanisticThis trial marks an important step for metabolic psychiatry and points to the need for larger, longer, fully controlled studies that can better clarify how ketogenic interventions may affect metabolic, cognitive, and psychiatric outcomes.

The LSE Middle East Centre hosted the launch of 'Turkey and the Liberal International Order', a new book examining Turkey's complex and evolving relationship with the liberal international order from the end of the First World War to the present day. The book explores how Turkey, as a middle power, responded to major global transformations following the First World War, the Second World War and the Cold War by appealing to the dominant principles of liberal internationalism. At the same time, it shows how Turkish political movements and foreign policy actors reinterpreted and challenged these principles, shaping how the liberal international order was understood and implemented in the Turkish context. Drawing on parliamentary records and the writings of key political figures, the book offers a rich historical account of how successive generations of policymakers understood Turkey's national interest, its place in the international order and its role on the global stage. Meet our speakers Marc Sinan Winrow is a Teaching Fellow at SOAS, teaching the International Relations of the Middle East and Risk and Policy Analysis, and he is also a Research Assistant at LSE. He completed his PhD in the Department of International Relations of the LSE. The topic of this talk is based on his first published book, Turkey and the Liberal International Order, published by Agenda in 2025. His research continues to be concentrated on different (post-) liberal conceptions of international order, geopolitics and the history and theory of sovereignty in International Relations, with a focus on Turkey and the southeast European, Eastern Mediterranean and the MENA region. Ayla Göl is Course Lead in Politics and International Relations, and a Senior Lecturer in International Relations at the School of Humanities, York St John University, UK. She holds a PhD from the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), where she had an early career position at the Department of International Relations. She is the author of Turkey Facing East: Islam, Modernity and Foreign Policy (Manchester University Press) and numerous articles in journals such as Nations and Nationalism, Third World Quarterly, Information and Education Technologies, the Global Discourse and International Affairs, as well as book chapters on Turkey, the Middle East and international relations.

Why is the Strait of Hormuz crisis about more than crude oil, and what does it reveal about Australia's hidden supply-chain vulnerabilities? What should investment in supply chain resilience look like for Australia? Does the green transition reduce Australia's energy security risks, or does it shift our dependence to new materials, technologies and supply chains? How can Australia move from a ‘just in time' to a ‘just in case' approach to national resilience? In this episode, Walter Colnaghi and David Leaney join Sharryn Parker to discuss what the Hormuz crisis means for Australia's economic security.

Adam Angst of TidBITS reflects on Apple's 50 years through the lens of early tech idealism, arguing that what mattered most wasn't Apple itself but the community around it, which was weakened by shifts like the end of Macworld keynotes, Apple's vertical integration, and the decline of user groups and independent resellers. He contrasts the Mac's early "create" ethos (e.g., HyperCard) with later emphasis on communication and content consumption via iPod, iPhone, and social media, while noting growing societal harms from tech giants. Angst describes renewed excitement in creation via AI tools, citing apps he built for track training and race pacing. He recounts how his 1993 Internet Starter Kit for Macintosh bundled software (including MacTCP) and a flat-rate ISP account, prompting an Apple Legal scare resolved by the MacTCP product manager, and closes by urging people to ditch social media and "go outside."   00:00 Part Two Kickoff 00:37 TidBITS Anniversary 00:52 Apple 50 Reflections 01:59 Pre Web News Era 04:33 Early Internet Optimism 05:20 Flame Wars Then 07:31 Apple Idealism Fades 10:20 Community Was The Magic 11:45 Macworld And User Groups 14:00 Vertical Integration Shift 17:25 Apple Turning Points 22:20 Creators To Consumers 25:43 From Consumption to Creation 26:01 Bicycle for the Mind 27:27 AI as Research Assistant 28:26 Building Runner Tools 29:40 Pacing Math Problem 33:25 AI MVP to Real Code 36:04 Internet Starter Kit Origins 40:56 Apple Legal Scare 43:09 Invent a Better Future 46:04 Go Outside Finale     ——————————————————————————__—

Almost a third of primary schools have seen a sharp rise in the number of pupils absent for four weeks or more in the wake of the pandemic. In a new report, patterns around primary and secondary schoolchildren taking days off have grown worse over two recent academic years and show no signs of reversing course. So what is contributing to this? All to discuss with Emer Smyth, Research Professor, ESRI and Anna Moya Ponce, Research Assistant, ESRI.

Today's episode features guest host Michael Upshall (guest editor, Charleston Briefings) who talks with Michele Frison, Postdoctoral Research Assistant at the MRC Mitochondrial Biology Unit at the University of Cambridge. Michele is originally from Italy and completed his PhD at UCL in England with a focus on cell biology. He defines himself as a cell biologist and biochemist, and much of his current research specializes in cell and mitochondrial biology, aging and disease.  The Mitochondrial Biology Unit is part of a larger infrastructure that runs clinical trials for rare diseases. Michele says the process is very slow, taking up to a decade or so, but that he has been fortunate enough to have made a recent discovery that could well lead to clinical trial: the protein target that he's worked with is actually a target for drugs that have already passed phase one clinical trials and are now passing phase two for Parkinson's disease. If the research he has done in models replicates in humans, then it could well lead to a drug for diseases that affect one in 8,000 humans. Michele also talks about the disconnect between the public understanding of science and scientific practice, research culture and competition, open science and the review process, and the vast amount of literature that scientists have to keep up with, as well as his views on the use of AI and social media in his field.

AI is already reshaping the workforce. What about teenagers?Turns out, they might be more impacted than anyone else. After all, they're usually in low-skill entry-level jobs that AI can replace. The problem ... teens are losing their first experience with working, making money, and establishing an identity outside of their homes.In this episode of TechFirst, host John Koetsier speaks with Karissa Tang, a high school senior and UCLA research assistant, about her new study on how AI will impact teen employment. While most workforce studies focus on adults, Karissa analyzed the top 10 most popular teen jobs from cashiers to fast food workers and found something alarming: AI could reduce teen employment by nearly 30% by 2030.We dig into:• Which teen jobs are most vulnerable to AI and automation• Why cashiers and fast-food counter workers are hardest hit• The role of self-checkout, kiosks, and robots like Flippy• Which teen jobs appear safest (for now)• Why teens may be even more exposed to AI than adults• What schools, policymakers, and teens themselves can do nextThis is a must-watch conversation for parents, students, educators, and policymakers trying to understand how AI is reshaping early work experiences—and what it means for the next generation.

Softer rhetoric on China, but an intensified drive for economic and technological supremacy. A renewed Monroe Doctrine and a Western Hemisphere that tops America national priorities—is the 2025 U.S. National Security Strategy a real shift in American foreign policy, or just old wine in new bottles? In this episode, we explore how America's new National Security Strategy affects China-U.S. relations and what it means for Global South countries and the broader world order. Host Xu Yawen is joined by Zhao Hai, Director of International Political Studies at the National Institute for Global Strategy, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences; Wang Haolan, Research Assistant at the Asia Society Policy Institute's Center for China Analysis; Clifford Kiracofe, Washington-based author and former Senior Professional Staff Member of the U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations; and George Tzogopoulos, Director of EU-China Programmes and Senior Research Fellow at the European Institute of Nice.

A forthcoming article by our guests today – appropriately titled “Rethinking Stardom" - argues that: Star performers are increasingly capturing the attention of both researchers and practitioners alike. However, studies on these uber-performers often employ disparate definitions, theoretical foundations and assumptions, and methods and analyses, which creates significant tension and confusion in the comparison of findings and the formation of a clear understanding of what star performance truly entails and its impact on individuals, teams, and organizations. To better explore the concept of star performers in organisations I am delighted to be joined by the two authors of this paper: Professor Ernest O'Boyle, Dale Coleman Chair of Management and Professor at Indiana University - Kelley School of Business, and Martin Gotz, Senior Teaching and Research Assistant in the Department of Psychology at the University of Zurich in Switzerland.The article discussed in the interview is available here: O'Boyle, E.

In this episode, Dave and Dharm sit down with Cristina Pieretti, Head of Digital Content and Innovation at Moody's, to explore how one of the world's most data-driven organisations is reimagining itself through Generative AI. Cristina reveals how Moody's moved rapidly from early experiments to launching its first commercial GenAI product, the Moody's Research Assistant, which became the company's fastest-adopted tool in history. She shares how GenAI now powers everything from developer co-pilots to agentic sales and strategy tools, reshaping how thousands of employees work and think. The conversation dives deep into: How Moody's is embedding GenAI across teams while managing risk, trust, and data integrity. The cultural shift needed to make AI adoption part of everyone's job — not just the developers'. Why agentic systems represent the next big leap for productivity and innovation. How banks and financial institutions are following suit, with parallels drawn to the early days of cloud adoption. Cristina's candid thoughts on the so-called “AI bubble” and why she believes specialisation and high-quality data will separate lasting innovation from hype. This is a masterclass in how established financial institutions can turn disruption into opportunity, with human creativity and trusted data at the core.

Divided Argument is in its sixth season! Our first episode of the term focuses, of course, on the latest developments on the shadow docket.

But first, an update on Dan's travel schedule and ChatGPT usage, and an important correction to our previous episode.

Productivity in public services has never been more important. Most services are struggling to return to pre-pandemic performance levels, and the new Labour government has indicated that spending will remain tight. Improvements in performance will likely come from frontline workers finding new, innovative ways of delivering services.   So what can be done to improve productivity? By highlighting outstanding examples of innovation across public services, Productivity Pitches, a series of events hosted by the IfG, aims to share and support ways to improve performance levels. This event was the eighth in the series and focused on innovation across public services. Each speaker had 10 minutes to present their innovation, followed by 10 minutes of audience questions. The chair and a guest from The Productivity Institute – which kindly supported this event series – brought together the common themes from the pitches and discussed the lessons for improving productivity. The speakers for this edition of Productivity Pitches were: Aoife O'Higgins, Director of Evidence at Foundations, the What Works Centre for children and families explained how their work showing the efficacy of Family Group Conferencing (FGC) has led to the government legislating in the Children, Wellbeing and Schools Bill to mandate that councils offer parents a Family Group Decision Making meeting before referring a child to social services. This substantially expanded the use of FGCs. Rhian Gladman and Gary Hughes on LGA's peer challenge programme and transformation support. For its peer challenge programme, the LGA recruits senior local government officers and political leaders to act as peer reviewers. Following a meeting with the council that will be reviewed, a small team of peer reviewers is sent in to speak to people, assess processes and documents, and use their knowledge to provide peer-led feedback. For transformation support, the LGA matches peers with transformation experience with councils that need that specific advice. The event was chaired by Nick Davies, Programme Director at the Institute for Government. Joel Hoskins, Research Assistant at The Productivity Institute joined to the discuss common themes. Productivity Pitches was kindly supported by The Productivity Institute. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Today's discussion was recorded in August of 2025 between me, Nathan Greene, and our returning guest, Dr. Ansel Schiavone.Before we get into today's discussion, I have some updates for you all regarding the show. I have some bittersweet news to share: this is my final episode hosting the podcast. After 178 episodes, I, your host, Nathan Greene, am unfortunately moving on to a new role.I am an inherently curious person, and I love to learn through conversation. This podcast presented a unique opportunity for me to meet many people with interesting ideas and gain insight into how they perceive the world. While I didn't always agree with them, it was always a fascinating conversation nonetheless. I got to speak with thinkers I love, have read about, and even got to reconnect with some I had already met. Needless to say, it was an incredible opportunity.By the time you're hearing this, I will have already begun my new job. My last day with the Henry George School was September 14th, and this will be published shortly after. I hope you all loved listening to the podcast just as much as I enjoyed making it. The show will go on, though. While it may not be me behind the mic, the Henry George School will continue to put out the content you all come to love and expect. The show will be taking a break until next year. They will let you know ahead of time when the show will be back. I'm not too sure when that will be, but I know I will be listening, and I hope you do too. If you want to keep up with me and my work, I will leave some links below to my Twitter, LinkedIn, and Substack. I can't promise I'll be very active on either, though, since this new role will be quite consuming, but a follow is always appreciated, and free. I can not thank everyone who gave me this opportunity enough: from the listeners, to my coworker Kuba who helped me put the episodes out, to Andrada, the president of the school, who trusted me enough to manage the show myself. I am sad that I'm leaving. But I can't wait to see, maybe I should say hear, what the podcast does next. I hope you all are just as excited.Dr. Schiavone is a macroeconomist whose research focuses on inequality and structural change. He has worked as a Research Assistant at the Institute for New Economic Thinking and the International Labor Organization. He has published numerous articles in journals such as Economic Modeling, Metroeconomica, and Regional Studies. Dr. Schiavone is an Assistant Professor at St. John's University where he teaches microeconomics, macroeconomics, and the economics of poverty and inequality. He earned his bachelor's from Dennison University and his Ph.D. from the University of Utah, both in economics. Together, we discussed why workers are receiving a smaller and smaller share of what they produce, some of the policies recently passed to try and correct this inequality, and why certain critiques of globalization may not be unfair. This is your host, Nathan Greene, signing off for the last time. Stay curious and keep searching for the truth. It may not be what you expect, but nothing ever is in this world.To check out more of our content, including our research and policy tools, visit our website: https://www.hgsss.org/Nathan's Links:Twitter: https://x.com/Nathan_Greene16LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nathan-greene-596466171/Substack: https://nathangreene1620.substack.com/

In this episode, Alina Utrata interviews Amira Moeding, a PhD Candidate in History at the University of Cambridge where they held fellowships with Cambridge Digital Humanities and the Cluster of Excellence “Matters of Activity” at Humboldt Universität zu Berlin. They talked all about Amira's research on the intellectual history of Large Language Models, and other types of AI. They began by asking: why is it so shocking to begin with a history and philosophy of linguistics when talking about LLMs? Why did IBM want these natural language processors to be so energy intensive (hint: to make money)? What is machine empiricism, how does it relate to the invention of Big Data, and why does it limit the way we see and understand the world around us? Amira has worked on critical theory, philosophy of science, feminist philosophy, post-colonial theory and the history of law in settler colonial contexts before turning to data and Big Data, and their paper “Machine Empiricism” together with Professor Tobias Matzner is forthcoming. Until June they were employed as an Research Assistant at the Computer Science Department (Computerlab) at the University of Cambridge in this project.

The U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) reported that the United States lost a record $12.5 billion to various types of cyber crime in 2023. Law enforcement hacking is one tool increasingly used to combat transnational cyber crime. Stephanie Pell, Senior Editor at Lawfare, sat down with Gavin Wilde, Senior Fellow in the Technology and International Affairs Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, and Emma Landi, Research Assistant in the Technology and International Affairs Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, to talk about their new paper exploring law enforcement efforts to “hack the hackers” in the fight against cyber crime. They talked about the types of hacking operations performed by law enforcement, when law enforcement may be better suited to address the actions of malicious cyber actors as compared with the military and private sector, and some of the major policy questions posed by law enforcement hacking.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.
