Artificial intelligence (AI) shows tremendous promise for applications in health care. Tools such as machine learning algorithms, artificial neural networks, and generative AI (e.g., Large Language Models) have the potential to aid with tasks such as diagnosis, treatment planning, and resource management. However, their ultimate impact on health outcomes will be shaped not only by the sophistication of the tools themselves, but by external "human factors" as well.
