“Big data is like teenage sex:
everyone talks about it,
nobody really knows how to do it,
everyone thinks everyone else is doing it,
so everyone claims they are doing it...”
-- Dan Ariely @danariely (2013)
Substitute “Big data” with “AI”, “Blockchain”, “IoT”
of your choice.

• Nothing is certain in medicine &
health care
• Large variations exist in patient
presentations, clinical course,
underlying genetic codes, patient &
provider behaviors, biological
responses & social contexts
Why Clinical Judgment Is Still Necessary?
14. 14
• Most diseases are not diagnosed by
diagnostic criteria, but by patterns of
clinical presentation and perceived
likelihood of different diseases given
available information (differential
diagnoses)
• Human is good at pattern
recognition, while machine is good at
logic & computations
Why Clinical Judgment Is Still Necessary?
15. 15
• Machines are (at best) as good as
the input data
–Not everything can be digitized or
digitally acquired
–Not everything digitized is accurate
(“Garbage In, Garbage Out”)
• Experience, context & human touch
matters
Why Clinical Judgment Is Still Necessary?
22. 22
• Life-or-Death
• Difficult to automate human decisions
– Nature of business
– Many & varied stakeholders
– Evolving standards of care
• Fragmented, poorly-coordinated systems
• Large, ever-growing & changing body of
knowledge
• High volume, low resources, little time
Why Healthcare Isn’t (Yet) “Smart”?

• “Don’t implement technology just for
technology’s sake.”
• “Don’t make use of excellent technology.
Make excellent use of technology.”
(Tangwongsan, Supachai. Personal communication, 2005.)
• “Health care IT is not a panacea for all that ails
medicine.” (Hersh, 2004)
Some “Smart” Quotes

To treat & to care
for their patients
to their best
abilities, given
limited time &
resources

system that systematically contributes to
medical errors and poor quality
• Recommends reform
• Health IT plays a role in improving patient
safety
