Next Global Dialogues Webinar | May 27 | 10AM EST
“Your Teachers Will Not Save You: AI and the Mindset We Haven’t Built Yet”

The biggest barrier to unlocking the value of AI in healthcare isn’t technical – it’s human.
For decades, we’ve trained professionals to memorize, operate in silos, and defer to authority. Today, we are asking them to work with tools that demand curiosity, collaboration, and comfort with uncertainty. The result is a growing disconnect between what AI can do—and what our systems, institutions, and training actually enable.
This upcoming Global Dialogues session brings together voices from clinical practice, community engagement, and data science to confront a deeper question:
👉 Are we solving the problem—or treating a symptom of something much more structural?
Together, we will challenge assumptions around AI adoption, medical education, and the broader systems that shape how knowledge is created, trusted, and applied.
Chair / Moderator:
Chaired by Leo Anthony Celi, Senior Research Scientist, MIT | Clinical Research Director, Laboratory of Computational Physiology
🎙️ Panelists
- Melat Mezgebu, Physician, Ethiopia
- Hector Acevedo, Community Change Catalyst, United States
- Dimitrios Proios, Data Scientist, Greece / Switzerland
Three continents. Radically different contexts. One urgent question: what must we unlearn for AI to genuinely improve lives — rather than mask deeper systemic failures?
💬 Expect an honest, thought-provoking discussion on:
- What we need to unlearn to work effectively with AI
- Whose knowledge is embedded—and excluded—in AI systems
- Whether AI is amplifying existing inequities rather than solving them
- And ultimately: are we brave enough to question the system itself?

📍 Global Dialogues Series by the Digital Health Literacy & Policy Hub
This is not a conversation about tools.
It’s a conversation about mindset, systems, and the future of health itself.
