Artificial intelligence promises faster notes, smoother workflows, and smarter clinical decisions. But behind every seamless interaction lies an invisible cost—electricity, water, and carbon emissions that rarely enter the healthcare conversation. In this episode, we trace what happens after you hit “enter” on a clinical prompt. From power-hungry GPUs to evaporative cooling systems in data centers, we uncover the hidden infrastructure fueling AI and how metrics like PUE translate convenience ...

#9 - Ambient Documentation Tech: Reducing Burnout or Creating New Problems?
AI is writing medical notes, but can doctors trust what it creates? Burnout is quietly eroding the medical workforce—and documentation overload is a major culprit. Physicians now spend nearly half their workday writing notes instead of treating patients, pushing many to the brink of exhaustion. Could artificial intelligence offer a lifeline? In this episode, we explore ambient documentation technology (ADT)—AI tools that automatically generate clinical notes by listening to patient-doctor con...
