Everyone's talking about AI.

Some people think it's the future. Others think it's overhyped. Most practice owners are somewhere in the middle, wondering what they're actually supposed to do with it.

I've been thinking about AI a lot recently, and I don't believe the biggest question is which tool should you use?

I think the better question is who inside your practice is responsible for making AI useful?

In this episode, I introduce two new roles that I believe every veterinary practice now needs so you can adopt AI without falling for the hype.

Used well, it can make your team more productive, reduce unnecessary admin, and create more space for the work that only humans can do. Used badly, it simply creates more noise.

If you want your practice to benefit from AI over the next few years, this is where I'd start.

• [00:00] AI is everywhere… now what?
• [02:25] Meet the Chief Robot Officer
• [03:50] Choosing the right tools
• [04:30] Does AI fit your mission?
• [05:00] Every workflow, mapped
• [06:10] Experiment before you commit
• [07:00] Why humans still matter
• [08:20] Don't stop thinking
• [10:00] The real future of work
• [11:25] My own AI workflow
• [14:10] Start small, win early

Technology will keep changing.

The practices that thrive won't be the ones chasing every new tool. They'll be the ones with clear leadership, strong systems, and teams who know how to use technology to support - not replace - great veterinary care.

If you'd like help building a more resilient, future-ready practice, I'd love to help.
