'Better Informed Than Any Doctor In The Country': What We Heard This Week
AIThis post was created with the assistance of artificial intelligence (AI).

Kennedy said AI “can give you a second opinion that is much better informed than any doctor in the country.” The roundup characterized the remark as appearing to encourage patients to place more confidence in AI than in U.S. physicians. It provided no additional details about the setting, evidence or specific AI system behind the statement, so the comment should be read as Kennedy’s view, not as a demonstrated comparison of medical accuracy.

Stephanie Carlton of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services commented on AI in the context of preventive care during Medicare annual wellness visits. Separately, Bianca Maria Piraccini of the University of Bologna said research she presented found GLP-1 medication users had a higher likelihood of onycholysis, or nail detachment. She described the finding as unusual, saying she believes nail detachment cannot be related to weight loss. The roundup did not supply study methods, participant numbers or evidence that the medications caused the condition.

Other remarks addressed a range of clinical and research issues. Jonathan Oliver of the University of Minnesota warned that lone star tick larvae swarm and “they bite.” Gideon Meyerowitz-Katz of the University of Sydney criticized an AI-powered “Research Boot Camp” promising a journal-ready manuscript in one weekend. Pallawi Torka of Memorial Sloan Kettering discussed treatment considerations for older or frail people with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, while Rupa Wong described broader eye risks associated with severe myopia. Norman Saffra discussed an adult case in which a strep infection was linked to a rare eye condition.
