📍 Policy & Leadership — Anika Shah
American Medical Association launches the Center for Digital Health and AI, led by CEO John Whyte. The center focuses on policy leadership, clinical workflow integration, education, and collaboration to ensure physicians shape AI regulation and development. The AMA emphasizes "augmented intelligence" that supports rather than replaces physician judgment.
📍 Infrastructure Failure — Teresa Vaughn
Amazon Web Services suffers major outage affecting 500+ hospitals, beginning at 3 AM Eastern in the US-EAST-ONE region. DNS resolution failures disrupted hospitals, Amazon services, WhatsApp, ChatGPT, Venmo, and British government sites. AWS resolved issues by 6:35 AM. The incident highlights healthcare's critical vulnerability to cloud service single points of failure.
📍 Healthcare Innovation — Logan Stokes
GE HealthCare partners with Queen's Health Systems in Honolulu and Duke Health to develop AI-driven hospital operations software. The company also unveiled 2025 AI Innovation Lab research projects, pushing GE beyond medical imaging into operational efficiency tools.
