Keynote 1: Building Trust and Accountability Through the AI Revolution
Friday, February 27, 2026
8:30 AM–9:30 AM
Liberty B/C
As AI reshapes industries far beyond health care, this keynote situates the current AI moment and frames health care as the ultimate test case, where accelerationist visions collide with the reality of AI as a normal, regulated technology. It examines how AI is impacting every stakeholder in the health care ecosystem from physicians and patients to pharma and insurers while raising hard questions about labor, the social compact, and whether AI truly bends the cost curve or simply shifts operating expenses. Finally, the session will confront the core trust and accountability challenge in AI adoption: implementing scalable solutions in a fragmented system of countless payors and providers, and what leaders must do to navigate it responsibly.
