Nearly one in four GPs nationally are believed to be using AI digital scribes for note-taking, according to the Australian Medical Association (AMA). Other practitioners, like psychologists and podiatrists, are also using the technology.

I was offered a permission form at my last trip to the GP. "Do you consent to Ai based note-taking assistants?"

I didn't. I don't because, in addition to Ai being unreliable, it requires we surrender our data sovereignty immediately, since Ai compute space is all in America.
