Hour 2 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. April 18th, 2024

The Ottawa Hospital is hoping that Artificial Intelligence will help reduce physician burnout and increase access to care for patients. This week, it became the first-ever Canadian hospital to give the DAX Co-Pilot Software a trial run. It’s a Microsoft-built solution that uses A.I. to create draft clinical notes for doctors during patient appointments. Dr. Virginia Roth explains how it works in Hour 2. Meantime, a popular Canadian coffee chain is taking heat for another slew of contest shenanigans. Once again, it’s Tim Horton’s and their historic ‘Roll Up The Rim’ promotion. This time, it’s a very expensive boat with no real winner, as a company email turned celebrations for dozens into false hope.
