Quotes


"AI is training computers... to have so much knowledge that they can then make decisions and craft responses on their own."

- Jayson Davies, MA, OTR/L


“We need to at least be familiar with it in order to make sure that when push comes to shove, occupational therapy practitioners can stand up and say, hey, I know AI and this is how I'm using AI.”

- Jayson Davies, MA, OTR/L


“I think it's going to help us be more organized. It's going to help us to better evaluate and understand our caseloads and our workloads.”

- Jayson Davies, MA, OTR/L
