The article discusses the emerging trend of integrating electronic medical records (EMRs) with artificial intelligence (AI) tools and frames this development as potentially transformative for clinical care.

At the same time, the piece highlights key concerns about this integration, particularly data privacy and security risks, challenges with maintaining the accuracy and trustworthiness of AI-generated outputs, and the need to ensure human oversight in clinical use.
