Dr. Siddhant Dogra sits down with Dr. Su Hwan Kim to discuss how reader experience influences the performance and real world utility of large language models for brain MRI differential diagnosis. Together they explore AI assisted decision making, automation bias, radiology training, and why strong AI performance does not always translate into meaningful clinical benefit.
