AMA Survey: 81% of Physicians Now Use AI Tools, Up from 2023

Summary
An AMA survey reveals that 81% of physicians now use AI tools in their practices, more than double the rate from 2023. The surge is largely driven by ambient listening AI scribe tools that take notes and generate after-visit summaries, reducing physician burnout. However, the survey also indicates that what constitutes "AI use" varies widely among respondents, and concerns about accuracy, data privacy, and integration challenges remain.
