Episode #181. Why AI In Healthcare Is Moving Faster Than The Internet Ever Did, with Hamed Abbaszadegan, “The AI MD”

AI in healthcare is accelerating rapidly, and the winners will be those who lean in, set smart guardrails, and help shape what comes next. 

In this episode, Hamed Abbaszadegan, an internal medicine–trained physician and clinical informatics leader known as “The AI MD,” discusses the rapid shift from cautious curiosity to full-on AI adoption across healthcare, fueled by personal user experiences and rising trust. He unpacks optimism from the conference floor, discussing AI’s impact on mental health, longevity, and personalized prevention, as well as a future where individuals become their own data scientists through wearable devices and biosimulation. Hamed also explains why standards, governance, and human checkpoints matter, using USB-C as the most straightforward analogy for interoperability and guardrails. Finally, he veers into bold “what if” territory, measuring the soul, new frontiers of human evolution, and space travel, before circling back to courage, risk, and building responsibly.
