Generative AI voice agents-conversational systems powered by large language models that can understand and produce natural speech in real time-are poised to transform how health systems engage with patients. While technical and implementation challenges remain, with thoughtful design, rigorous validation, and responsible deployment, generative AI voice agents could become a critical extension of the care team, increasing the reach of clinicians and health systems in ways previously limited by human resources.
生成式人工智能语音代理——由大型语言模型驱动、能够实时理解并生成自然语音的对话系统——有望改变卫生系统与患者互动的方式。尽管技术和实施方面仍存在挑战,但通过精心设计、严格验证和负责任的部署,生成式人工智能语音代理可能会成为护理团队的关键延伸,以先前受人力资源限制的方式扩大临床医生和卫生系统的服务范围。
