7th Global Gastroenterology and Artificial Intelligence Summit (Live) | September 2025-15 2025 7Th Global Ai Summit And Workshop Panel Discussion 5

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The discussion focused on hot topics in AI's role in endoscopy, emphasizing concerns about de-skilling—where reliance on AI might reduce clinicians' native skills—and training impacts. A European study showed adenoma detection rates (ADR) dropped below baseline after AI assistance was removed, sparking debate. Panelists argued that de-skilling might be an evolution, freeing clinicians to focus on complex tasks while AI handles routine detection. Training adaptations including phased AI exposure were proposed. Industry representatives highlighted challenges in commercializing numerous validated AI applications due to regulatory burdens, costs, and market adoption concerns. They also discussed ambient scribing technologies for automated report generation, noting integration complexities across multiple platforms but emphasizing efficiency and potential patient benefits. Finally, the panel explored the vision of flexible, open-platform systems akin to smartphone app ecosystems allowing clinicians to customize AI tools, though regulatory and validation challenges remain. Overall, the consensus embraced cautious adoption of AI with evolving training and technology infrastructures to optimize clinical outcomes.
