On today’s episode of Actually Intelligent, Max Thon sits down with Dr. Aki Al-Zubaidi, founder and CEO of Eon Health, to discuss how his experiences as an interventional pulmonologist led him to build technology for preventing missed diagnoses and improving lung cancer care through AI and automation.
The two also explore the growing challenges facing healthcare systems—from fragmented patient data and missed follow-ups to physician burnout—and why combining human expertise with intelligent systems is one of the most important paths forward in modern medicine.
Read the blog to hear more from Dr. Aki Al-Zubaidi on the Armenian guy at the club who inspired his "what's the maximum?" approach to life, why he thinks LLMs are a net positive for patients despite the real risks, and his two-word sign-off that pretty much says everything: do the right thing.
