Welcome to the 144th episode of the Tooth or Dare Podcast with Irene Iancu (@toothlife.irene) and this week's guest Katie Poulsen (@katiecpoulsen).

Katie is a product marketing manager for Videa Health, a company specializing in artificial intelligence tools for healthcare, including dentistry. VideaAI is one such tool that can greatly improve diagnosis with dental X-rays when used by a trained professional - and this is where there are currently varying opinions on its use. On one hand, Katie is a huge advocate for AI and believes it will be an essential part of providing quality healthcare. On the other hand, there are dentists who seem to find AI’s very existence offensive, as well as anyone who uses it. Find out the good, the bad, and the ugly about incorporating dental AI tools in your practice, and how Irene dealt with some hate online from her AI-denouncing peers – despite having positive patient outcomes.
