The conversation explores the difference between AI and machine learning, how predictive models can move healthcare from reactive to proactive, and why Fort Worth is emerging as a major hub for innovation, research, and applied technology. Dr. Naler also discusses the company’s work with government, healthcare, and university partners, as well as its upcoming AI for Executives workshop designed to help leaders better understand and implement AI in their organizations.
