#58: OT and AI with Sarah Brzeszkiewicz OT Potential Podcast | Occupational Therapy CEUs

Is AI going to replace occupational therapy?
There’s no doubt that this technology will transform healthcare. It will surely accelerate the existing move toward healthcare taking place at home. 
To help us wrap our minds around this transformation, we review an article that explores three technologies:
Artificial intelligenceBlockchainWearablesThe article explores how the above technologies are being used in chronic disease management. The authors also introduce a patient-centered management framework based on AI. They close out the article by discussing the potential shortcomings of this new paradigm. 
After we review the article, we’ll host a guest whose career demonstrates OTs’ involvement in this transformation of healthcare. Sarah Brzeszkiewicz, OTR/L is the clinical advisor at Sensi.ai, where she’s helping to pioneer AI’s role in home care. She and I will discuss the implications of this research, including how AI is best seen as a tool and an opportunity…rather than a threat.
