What Is Ambient AI?

3rd January 2025 | General What Is Ambient AI?

Forget ChatGPT… for physicians who want to streamline processes, save time and improve patient care, ambient AI is the artificial intelligence designed specifically for practices like yours. 

Ambient AI works silently in the background – listening, learning, and documenting every moment of your patient consultations. 

No more typing while talking. No more splitting attention between note-taking and patient care. No more time wasted on clinical documentation. 

How does Ambient AI work? 

Ambient AI – sometimes known as ambient intelligence – harnesses the power of more general AI and applies it to healthcare. It’s designed specifically to support clinicians and physicians. 

It’s a term used to describe technologies that operate seamlessly in the background to gather data, analyze patterns, and assist clinicians in real time.

Where traditional AI relies on physicians to input data and directly interact with the technology, ambient AI solutions ‘listen’. They work automatically in the background and learn from the environment they operate in, using natural language processes (NLP) to generate the focused outputs needed in a healthcare setting. 

For GI physicians, ambient AI like My AI Scribe automatically listens to patient consultations and instantly transcribes notes. All you have to do is hit start. 

What does it do exactly? 

Ambient AI can be applied to all kinds of processes in your healthcare practice, including: 

  1. Real-time data capture and documentation – like listening to clinical consultations, automatically transcribing relevant notes and populating electronic medical records (EMRs).
  1. Workflow automation – analyzing conversations and data to automate routine tasks like patient updates, procedure reports or billing queries. 
  2. Contextual assistance – identifying key phrases, results or data to suggest appropriate next steps.

For your gastro practice, ambient AI like My AI Scribe is your always-ready medical scribe. 

It captures your entire consultation naturally and accurately. The moment your patient walks in, it starts working. Every symptom discussed, every observation made, and every treatment plan outlined – all documented automatically in the format you want for your clinical documentation.

Ambient AI brings big benefits to GIs

If you’re spending more than 2 minutes on consultation notes, you need ambient AI. 

My AI Scribe slashes clinical documentation time from 10 minutes to less than 2 – for every single patient. That saves you over 2 hours every day – over 500 hours every year. 

Time you could spend consulting more patients, developing your practice, or heading home early to family.

But ambient AI does much more than that. It:

  • Streamlines workflows and automates tasks
  • Reduces manual errors and improves accuracy
  • Increases patient engagement and their overall satisfaction
  • Reduces physician burnout

In short, it lets you see more patients and spend more time with them, focused on their care. More conversations, more eye contact, more understanding.

Take control of your time 

Every minute saved on clinical documentation is a minute gained for what matters – whether that’s improving care, growing your practice, or enjoying more family time.

Ambient AI like My AI Scribe helps you do just that.
