"The integration of AI into medicine is still in its early stages, but its potential is undeniable.This conference offered a hopeful vision of a future where technology and human compassion converge to create a more equitable and accessible health care system," Bray stated in the same release.

The conference resulted in strategies for using AI to improve community health services and for developing the skills of future healthcare leaders.
