One of the most rewarding use-cases of AI is providing access of life changing services to minority populations who are underserved. Nowhere is this more true than in the medical field, and specifically in the quote-unquote niche field of LGBTQ Health.
Today’s guest is Dr. Roy Zucker, Director of LGBTQ Health Services at Clalit, Israel’s biggest HMO and chairman of the Israeli LGBTQ medical association.
We chat about the state of LGBTQ medicine in Israel, difficulties for LGBTQ patients trying to seek access to services and what his vision is for using AI to improve LGBTQ healthcare.
We discuss how doctors need to adapt to the AI age, and the fact that AI chatbots can provide safe spaces and be more compassionate or with less judgement to LGBTQ patients and give them services, as well as using AI for harm reduction in drug use and how that relates to getting past the safeguards of public Generative AI.

The field of Public Health has always involved collecting and analyzing data but when a worldwide pandemic hit suddenly, it was necessary to speed up these processes so as to make decisions and recommendations in real time. As the pandemic changed and shifted, with vaccines and treatments, so did the need for public health data. In this episode I talk to Amelia Burke-Garcia and Lucy Rabinowitz Bailey of NORC at the University of Chicago, an independent research organization, who conducted just such a study in real time to understand the pandemic’s effect on public mental health and coping strategies.
We talk about the kind of data they used, the challenge of collecting it and processing it so quickly, how data changed throughout the pandemic, how they approached issues of bias and privacy and how AI figured into the equation. We also touched on some hot topics in the news - the proposed moratorium on generative AI research and its effect on public health as well as the effect of social media on teen mental health.
