Can AI Say “I Don’t Know”?

from Anesthesia Updates · host NYSORA

In this episode, we explore a 2026 New England Journal of Medicine article that asks a deceptively simple question: Can AI say "I don't know"? From the Hippocratic oath to the “Pikachu problem”, we examine why calibrated uncertainty is a safety mechanism, not a weakness, and what clinicians should demand from AI tools at the point of care.======================================Where else to find us: Web - ⁠⁠⁠https://www.nysora.com/⁠⁠⁠Instagram - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠instagram.com/nysora.inc/ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠linkedin.com/company/nysora-inc/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Facebook - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠facebook.com/nysora⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Twitter - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠x.com/nysora⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ TikTok - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠tiktok.com/@nysora_inc⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ --------------------------------------------------------- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#nysora⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#regionalanesthesia⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#anesthesia⁠⁠Disclaimer: Medicine is an ever-changing science.
