Emily Alsentzer Outstanding paper โ€” couldnโ€™t agree more! @VUMC_VCLIC is always happy to partner with researchers on real-world evaluations โ€” we need to learn how LLMs actually work in the hospital and clinics!

To move forward as a field, clinicians need to design benchmarks that better align with the tasks LLMs are expected to perform upon deployment. Read the editorial by Deb Raji, BAS, Roxana Daneshjou MD/PhD, MD, PhD, and Emily Alsentzer, PhD: nejm.ai/3PK8v1D

1/๐ŸงตHow do we know if AI is actually ready for healthcare? We built a benchmark, MedHELM, that tests LMs on real clinical tasks instead of just medical exams. #AIinHealthcare Blog, GitHub, and link to leaderboard in thread!

#SAIL2025 was a terrific meeting and this sample of anonymized quotes collected by Irene Chen includes a level of candor rarely heard in medical AI meetings (kudos to Emily Alsentzer Isaac Kohane and organizers for both the program and deciding on Chatham House Rule)

In the absence of federal action, the states have led the way for years on pushing forward common sense AI policy. This is really not good.

General LLMs perform well on clinical NLP tasks, even though they never see EHR data. How? Our CHIL 2025 paper, led by Furong Jia, investigates by probing the clinical content in pre-training datasets behind popular LLMs. ๐Ÿ”— arxiv.org/abs/2505.15024
