Artificial intelligence is reshaping every industry, and veterinary medicine is no exception. In this episode, Dr. Lance Roasa breaks down the fundamentals of AI, how machine learning systems “think,” and what makes this technology radically different from traditional software.

Fresh off delivering an AI lecture at the Veterinary Innovation Summit, Lance shares where AI is already being used in practices, what’s coming next, and why this moment feels a lot like the early days of the internet in the 1990s.

We also explore the legal and regulatory questions surrounding new AI startups and how veterinary professionals can responsibly adopt these tools.
