Your AI Doctor Is Coming | Julie Yoo

a16z General Partner Julie Yoo joins MTS host Sophia Dew to explain why she believes healthcare could benefit more from AI than almost any other industry, and why decades of slow technology adoption may actually give healthcare an advantage in the AI era.

Julie traces healthcare’s evolution from paper records and fax machines through electronic health records and telehealth, and explains why AI represents something different: an organic adoption wave driven by tools that doctors and patients actually want to use. Because healthcare never built the same layers of legacy software as other industries, it may now be able to leapfrog directly into agentic AI.

They also explore how AI could dramatically lower the cost of care, why consumers are becoming a more important payer, where Julie sees the biggest opportunities for healthcare founders, and a future where everyone has a highly personalized AI doctor in their pocket for life.
