Technology alone cannot transform healthcare, its success depends on the people who use it. This panel explores the human dimensions of AI adoption in nursing. Panelists will discuss the opportunities and barriers they’ve experienced in real-world implementations, from workflow integration to earning trust at the bedside. The conversation will highlight how AI can empower nurses, enhance patient care, and foster collaboration across disciplines. Governance, ethics, and the preservation of nursing’s human touch will remain central as we chart a future where AI supports, not replaces, the essence of care.
