How i The Pitt /i 's AI Drama is Playing Out in Real Hospitals
How The Pitt's AI Drama is Playing Out in Real Hospitals In Thursday's episode of The Pitt, the long-simmering tensions over the use of AI at the Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center boiled over. In season two of the five-time Emmy winning medical drama, a new attending physician, Baran Al-Hashimi (Sepideh Moafi), is determined to improve efficiencies at the hospital. She tells her skeptical staff that new AI systems can cut down their time spent on charting by 80%, allowing them to spend more time both at the bedside and at home. But in episode six, doctors discover that the AI tool has made up false details about a patient and confused "urology" for "neurology." "AI's two percent error rate is still better than dictation," Al-Hashimi says, adding that it needs to be proofread for errors.
