ChatGPT Asks the Questions - Healthcare IT Today Podcast Episode 108

For the 108th episode of the Healthcare IT Podcast, we decided to mix things up. Regular listeners will know that last episode we talked about Generative AI (ChatGPT being one example) in healthcare. With that context in mind, we thought it would be fun for this episode to let ChatGPT take over and asks us the questions. We asked ChatGPT the following question “Can you come up with 4 questions for a podcast on healthcare IT (technology)?” and it generated the following questions:

How is healthcare technology impacting the delivery of patient care?
What are some of the most promising advancements in healthcare IT currently under development?
How is the healthcare industry addressing concerns about data privacy and security with the increasing use of technology?
What role do you see technology playing in the future of the healthcare industry?

As you can see from the questions, they were pretty generic and not that good. We almost did the episode on these questions and figured we could make it interesting using our responses since the questions were so generic. However, then we decided to see if ChatGPT could do better. So, we asked ChatGPT to make the questions more specific and interesting. Here’s a look at the 2nd set of questions that ChatGPT provided us after this extra prompt:

How is the adoption of electronic health records (EHRs) changing the way doctors and nurses document patient care?
Can you discuss the use of telemedicine and how it’s being used to reach underserved communities?
How is the healthcare industry using Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to improve patient outcomes?
Can you discuss the challenges of implementing and maintaining a successful healthcare IT infrastructure, and what solutions are being proposed to address these challenges?

As you can see, much more specific and interesting. We used these four questions as the framework for this episode. We’ll let you decide after listening to the episode if this was a good idea of bad. We look forward to hearing your thoughts in the comments and on social media.

Now, without further ado, we’re excited to share with you the next episode of the Healthcare IT Today podcast.
