    Diabetic retinopathy is the leading cause of preventable blindness in the U.S — yet far too few people who need screening actually receive it.

In this episode, we discuss how Michael has spent over a decade driving the systemic changes needed to make autonomous AI viable clinically, economically, and ethically.
