I respect the existential debates around the use of AI in medicine and education and certainly have my own thoughts, but making a polite request to keep this thread to discussion of experiences specifically with the integrated AI documentation tools that are popping up everywhere.
My institution has DAX and I tried it for the first time this week. Hilarious that the current recording time limit is 75 minutes per recording (my intakes are scheduled for 90). It caught some aspects very well but hilariously ignored completely large swaths of the HPI/psych symptom history, even parts that were less narrative and more focused (ie, discussing the symptoms, triggers, frequency, etc of panic attacks). Fortunately the transcript is there to refer back to.
I do think with relatively little tweaking it will be very helpful in summarizing medication history, etc. It did a great job summarizing the non pharm and behavioral strategies I reviewed with the patient, and that I can see being quite useful particularly in both providing the patient with a summary of what we talked about and also allowing me to track what I work on with pts from visit to visit.
But it is hilarious (and sad?) how utter trash it is at recognizing the diagnostically important parts of the interview. Don't ask me if im more annoyed by that bc it therefore wasn't as helpful for me as it has been for some of my non psych colleagues, or reassured that our jobs may be some of the last standing in medicine....
Anyone else using AI integration for notes? Whats your experience been?
